Adobe releases patch for ‘critical’ Flash vulnerability

June 11th, 2010 | Tags: , , , , , ,

As promised , Adobe has now released an update to Flash that fixes the critical vulnerability discovered earlier this month that could allow your computer to be remotely hijacked. The update naturally covers Windows, Mac and Linux users (and even Solaris, for that matter), and is recommended for anyone running Flash Player 10.0.45.2 or earlier — the update will also, of course, bump you up to Flash 10.1 if you haven’t made the jump already. Adobe AIR users are also advised to upgrade to the latest version released today but, as reported earlier, Adobe Acrobat and Reader users will still have to wait a bit for their fix — while they’re also affected by the vulnerability, they won’t be getting an update until the end of the month.
