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.
Το ενημερωτικό δελτίο ασφαλείας για το Αdobe Flash Player (APSB15-18) εξετάζει τις ευπάθειες zero-day (CVE-2.015 - 5122, CVE-2015-5123). Η νέα έκδοση 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 έκδοση για τα επηρεαζόμενα συστήματα.
Adobe was forced to update Flash last week due to the zero-days released after the leakage of Hacking Team tools. 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 mentioned yesterday, the Facebook asked for a timeline to completely stop Flash from social network, while Firefox took an unusually aggressive step on Monday to completely block Flash plugins by default.
Both Flash updates are particularly important because they fix the targeting of these vulnerabilities that have already arisen, as even Addo admits.
Finally, Adobe will also release updates for Adobe Acrobat και το Reader (APSB15-15) για να "αντιμετωπίσει κρίσιμες ευπάθειες που θα μπορούσαν δυνητικά να επιτρέψουν σε έναν εισβολέα να πάρει τον έλεγχο του προσβεβλημένου συστήματος".
