Adobe has just released patches for Flash, trying to identify two critical security gaps that are freely available on the internet after hacking the Hacking Team. Errors can be exploited to infect computers and infect them with malware, so it would be best to update your computers directly.
The security bulletin for Adobe Flash Player (APSB15-18) addresses zero-day vulnerabilities (CVE-2.015 – 5122, CVE-2015-5123). THE new edition 18.0.0.209 του Flash Player και των συναφών plugins του προγράμματος περιήγησης για Windows, Macintosh και Linux αντικαθιστούν όλες προηγούμενες εκδόσεις, και αποτελούν μια κρίσιμη ενημερωμένη version για τα επηρεαζόμενα συστήματα.
Adobe was forced to update Flash last weekteam because of the zero-days released after Hacking Team's tools were leaked. As you may know, Flash is often targeted by scammers and spies. So there are many who disagree with the use of this technology.
Adobe updated 11 times Flash since early 2015. Six of these were released with Adobe's regular fix cycle, and all of the rest were released to extra patches for zero-day defects.
As we reported yesterday, Facebook requested a timeline to completely phase out Flash from the social network, while the Firefox in an unusually aggressive step on Monday it completely blocked Flash plugins by default.
The two updates of Flash are particularly important because they fix the targeting of these vulnerabilities that have already surfaced, as even Adobe admits.
Finally, Adobe will also release updates for Adobe Acrobat and Reader (APSB15-15) to "address critical vulnerabilities that could potentially allow an attacker to gain control of the infected system."
