Critical Vulnerability in Adobe Flash Player, Adobe AIR
Adobe has released patches for the critical vulnerability in Adobe
Flash Player versions 9 and 10, and in Adobe AIR. This vulnerability
allows a malicious person to create flash media that will run commands
of their choosing on your computer when viewed. This vulnerability
can be exploited by convincing a user to open a webpage, a PDF file or
another document that contains embedded malicious flash media. Adobe
urges users of Flash Player 10 to upgrade to version 10.1.82.76, users
of Flash Player 9 to upgrade to 9.0.280, and users of Adobe AIR to
2.0.3. For more information, see
