Re: Flash Player update available to address security vulnerabil

said by tjack See Profile :

If I'm reading the info posted by Nick correctly these are the only versions affected:

Affected software versions: Adobe Flash Player 9.0.48.0 and earlier, 8.0.35.0 and earlier, and 7.0.70.0 and earlier.

If you updated on Dec 3rd to the latest version you don't need to add this.
That's what i was thinking as well,because i have had this update since December 4th 2007. So what are they trying to say that the 9.0.115.0 is vulnerable as well or what?

The Securia info I posted 2 posts above yours is dated the 19th of December, 2007, fwiw.

*Edit- Also, quoted from Nick's Original Post:

"Severity ratingAdobe categorizes this as a critical update and recommends affected users upgrade to version 9.0.115.0 (Win, Mac, Linux)."

AB thanks i saw your post and i was at the securia website earlier today using their scanner and wasn't warned about my Adobe Flash Player being out dated, plus i knew i had the latest version installed like i said since Dec 4th (15 days before this Adobe warning was posted). I guess what i am trying to say is why are they now posting this warning when people were asked to update to 9.0.115.0 15 days ago.

I think it's unlikely that the vast majority update their Flash player within two or three weeks of a new version coming out, don't you?

Half the computers in this world that have Flash probably still have a 6.x or 7.x version on them.
