In a whitepaper entitled "A Practical Approach to Managing Phishing", PayPal has announced their approach to phishing, including banning users from performing sensitive transactions using browsers which do not have adequate protections against phishing.
We've previously reported that PayPal considers Safari to be insecure for exactly these reasons. Ergo, it would seem that PayPal is planning to disallow the use of Apple's Safari for transactions.
See Ryan Naraine's story in eWEEK for more information on these developments.
