We generally don't report on individual bugs or security issues in operating systems, but a pretty serious bug has reared its ugly head in Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard. If you had a guest account enabled prior to installing Snow Leopard, then you are at risk of losing all your data.

Well considering the guest account is disabled by default the only thing enabled is that guest accounts can access Shared folders (if permissions allow). So you'd have to create a Guest account or figure out how to enable it on a machine where it is already disabled (which is most).
