Last week we reported that Adobe had issued a security warning for version 10.1.92.10 and now it appears to be fixed as Adobe’s Flash Player 10.1 has now been updated to version 10.1.95.1. Adobe had this to say regarding the previous flawed version:
AÂ critical vulnerability exists in Adobe Flash Player 10.1.82.76 and earlier versions for Windows, Macintosh, Linux, and Solaris, and Adobe Flash Player 10.1.92.10 for Android. This vulnerability also affects Adobe Reader 9.3.4 and earlier versions for Windows, Macintosh and UNIX, and Adobe Acrobat 9.3.4 and earlier versions for Windows and Macintosh. This vulnerability (CVE-2010-2884) could cause a crash and potentially allow an attacker to take control of the affected system. There are reports that this vulnerability is being actively exploited in the wild against Adobe Flash Player on Windows. Adobe is not aware of any attacks exploiting this vulnerability against Adobe Reader or Acrobat to date.
Those of you at the previous version are encouraged to updated your Flash Player. It’s good to see that Adobe issued the statement notifying users of the security hole and that they provided a fix in less than a week. Did anyone experience any crashes with the previous version?
