Safari icon on dock not right

After system update to macOS 10.5.7 on MacBook Pro, the Safari icon in the dock changed to what looks like a word processing icon with a wooden A. I can open Safari ok - does it matter?

If it works, it doesn't matter. I've seen one or two other reports of the same thing. If you want to fix it (no guarantee as I can't test it), try the following:

Remove it from the Dock by dragging it off of the Dock.

Then add it back by opening a Finder window, use the Finder "Go" menu to go to the Applications folder and then drag Safari back to the Dock.
