On Thursday, Adobe released security bulletin to patch 12 critical flaws. New updated version of Flash Player fixes vulnerabilities for Windows, Mac, Linux and Solaris platforms according to security bulletin.
This patch fixes holes that many of them are related to memory corruption in popular media software. Android users may update to version 11.1.102.59 which is expected to be the last Flash-for-mobile update from Adobe.
Director of security operations at vulnerability management firm nCircle, Andrew Storms says: „They are patching a ton of serious bugs today, and nearly all of them allow for remote code execution“. “Sometimes we can't load your critical patches immediately. Any assistance you could offer would be much appreciated,“ he adds, that means he criticizes Adobe for not offering any cure in their advisories, leaving users with only the option to patch.
