Adobe has issued a security advisory for "Flash Player 10.1.82.76 and earlier versions for Windows, Macintosh, Linux, Solaris, and Adobe Flash Player 10.1.92.10 for Android, which also affects Adobe Reader 9.3.4 for Windows, Macintosh and UNIX, and Adobe Acrobat 9.3.4 and earlier versions for Windows and Macintosh." The vulnerability can allow an attacker to take control of the affected system, and there are already reports of active exploits against Adobe Flash Player on Windows. The company plans to issue a fix "during the week of September 27." For now, may I recommend ClickToFlash? (via Micah)
