Adobe warns of a new security hole in Adobe Flash Player, which has been used for targeted attacks by embedding a Flash object in an Excel sheet. Adobe Reader is also affected.
Adobe has released a warning about a new critical vulnerability in Adobe Flash Player, which has been used in targeted attacks. Adobe is now working on an update that should close the security hole.
The security hole is found in the latest version of Adobe Flash Player, which in recent years has been plagued by serious security holes and has been seen as taking candy from kids for the computer criminals. They have used Adobe vulnerabilities in browsers and operating systems with limited control over security.
