Uninstall now: New serious vulnerability in Adobe Flash Player

After all, as is well known, Adobe does not care about security! Flash's problems are endless by Adobe. A few months after the last major vulnerability discovered in their software as well as just two days since the last security release Adobe is warning us about a new dangerous vulnerability and almost suggesting us to uninstall the player !!!

Adobe Flash Player

Η issued one new security bulletin this week by warning that last edition of Flash Player, with build number 19.0.0.207, is vulnerable to a exploit that could cause computers to collapse or allow a hacker to gain control.

The bad news is that the vulnerability can be applied across all platforms , Mac and Linux and there is still no guaranteed solution other than uninstalling the plug-in.

Adobe has named the critical vulnerability CVE-2015-7645, and says it affects the latest version of the plug-in, as well as all its previous releases (so you're saving it with nothing).

The company notes that attacks that can exploit the new vulnerability are limited and can be used against specific targets.

The company says it's working on a fix, but it won't be available until at least next week, which is October 19 at the earliest. The only guaranteed way for them για να προστατέψουν τον υπολογιστή τους σε αυτό το σημείο είναι να κατare installing the plugin.

For those who want to uninstall the plugin, you can find the Adobe instructions from here.
