Flash Exploits on the Loose: Update Now It is Critical You Update Your Adobe Flash Player
Hopefully you noticed that earlier in the week Adobe issued multiple security updates, which included an update for Adobe Flash Player by way of APSB11-18. What you may not know is that the issue fixed by this update, CVE-2011-2110, is being exploited in the wild on a fairly large scale. In particular this exploit is showing up as a drive-by in several legitimate websites, including those belonging to various NGOs, aerospace companies, a Korean news site, an Indian Government website, and a Taiwanese University. The links are also being used in targeted spear phishing attacks designed to lure particular individuals into clicking the links with hopes of compromising their machines. In case there is any doubt at all, this is very bad. If you run a version of Adobe Flash that is older than
10.3.181.26 (or 10.3.181.24 for Android), then is is absolutely critical that you update your Flash Player....
