	Здравствуйте.
Если кому нужно пользоваться Flash -- сейчас рекомендую обновить
плагин, а вообще сильно рекомендую FlashBlock для мозиллообразных.

----- Forwarded message -----

Description:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in Adobe Flash Player, which
can be exploited by malicious people to gain knowledge of sensitive
information or compromise a user's system.

1) An input validation error can be exploited to execute arbitrary code
when a user e.g. visits a malicious website.

The vulnerability affects versions 9.0.45.0 and prior.

2) An error within the interaction of Flash Player and certain browsers
can be exploited to leak key presses to a Flash Player applet.

The vulnerability affects versions 7.0.69.0 and prior on Linux and
Solaris. It does not affect Flash Player 9.

A bug has also been reported in the validation of the HTTP Referer in
versions 8.0.34.0 and prior, which may aid in e.g. CSRF (Cross-Site
Request Forgery) attacks.

Solution:
Apply updates.

Flash Player 9.0.45.0 and earlier (update to version 9.0.47.0):

PS: заодно обращаю внимание пользователей Firefox, что в 2.x
два дня тому также найдена критичная уязвимость (неисправленная):

На Seamonkey (по факту куда оперативней поддерживается в ALT)
не воспроизводится.

PPS: кросспост, просьба отвечать максимум в одну рассылку.
