Be careful the next week until they get a patch out.
Another critical vulnerability in Flash was announced by Adobe this week. The latest in a string of high profile flaws afflicting its PDF and Flash formats, the news adds fuel to the fire of the company's detractors
Hackers/spammers are distributing Excel spreadsheet documents that look innocent, but contain a harmful embedded SWF (Flash) file that exploits the flaw to gain unauthorized access to the victim's system. Adobe says Windows, OS X, and Linux machines alike are all affected by the flaw.
Be careful the next week until they get a patch out.
