Adobe has just released a new version of Flash Player. The new Flash Player 22.0.0.192 fixes 36 security issues, including a zero-day that usesare currently under attack.
The vulnerability was discovered by Kaspersky Labs και ο εμπειρογνώμονας Costin Raiu ανέφερε ότι οι hackers χρησιμοποίησαν το Flash zero-day για να προκαλέσουν ένα memory corruption bug στη μνήμη του Flash Player, κάτι το οποίο τους επέτρεψε να εκτελέσουν κακόβουλο κώδικα στον υπολογιστή του θύματος και να αναλάβουν την management device.
In addition to zero-day (CVE-2016-4171), the company also corrected other Flash exploits such as CVE-2016-4117 and CVE-2016-0147. The last one was another zero-day exploit that Adobe reported had been repaired in April.
Updates are available right now for all three platforms: Windows, Mac, and Linux. The updated version of Adobe Flash Layerer for Windows and Mac is 22.0.0.192, while for distributions Linux is 11.2.202.626.
