Adobe publishes out-of-band Flash update provides booster dose for Octobers patches

Adobe has released security updates for Adobe Flash Player for Windows, Macintosh and Linux. The latest patch adds additional protection against a vulnerability that was originally addressed in October 2014: CVE-2014-8439. The trick to exploit it seems already to be in use by cybercriminals. The potential reversibility of patches is not an argument against patching, by the way: after all, holes that are fixed by todays patches already exist, and thus need fixing anyway. The bottom line: If you are a Flash user, make sure you have this patch.”]
