Hot on the heels of the zero-day flaw announced earlier this week, Adobe has released a patch today that patches 25 newly discovered vulnerabilities. The vulnerabilities that were found affect Flash for Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, and ChromeOS operating systems. These vulnerabilities can allow an attacker to take control of the affected computer if exploited. Some of these attacks may already have been executed by cybercriminals.
How to Protect Yourself from This Threat
If you are running Flash and if it has not already automatically updated with the emergency fix, patch Flash immediately.
