Release notes: »helpx.adobe.com/en/flash-player/···tes.html

Security bulletin: »www.adobe.com/support/security/b···-08.html

Adobe has released security updates for Adobe Flash Player 11.6.602.168 and earlier versions for Windows, Adobe Flash Player 11.6.602.167 and earlier versions for Macintosh, and Adobe Flash Player 11.2.202.270 and earlier versions for Linux.

Adobe is aware of reports that CVE-2013-0643 and CVE-2013-0648 are being exploited in the wild in targeted attacks designed to trick the user into clicking a link which directs to a website serving malicious Flash (SWF) content. The exploit for CVE-2013-0643 and CVE-2013-0648 is designed to target the Firefox browser.

Adobe recommends users update their product installations to the latest versions:

•Users of Adobe Flash Player 11.6.602.168 and earlier versions for Windows and Adobe Flash Player 11.6.602.167 and earlier versions for Macintosh should update to Adobe Flash Player 11.6.602.171.

•Users of Adobe Flash Player 11.2.202.270 and earlier versions for Linux should update to Adobe Flash Player 11.2.202.273.

•Adobe Flash Player installed with Google Chrome will automatically be updated to the latest Google Chrome version, which will include Adobe Flash Player 11.6.602.171 for Windows, Macintosh and Linux.

•Adobe Flash Player installed with Internet Explorer 10 for Windows 8 will automatically be updated to the latest version of Internet Explorer 10, which will include Adobe Flash Player 11.6.602.171 for Windows.

Thanks. Guess I'll be away for a bit installing 6 times (3 boxes x IE/plug-in versions).

Anyone willing to test installing this file »aihdownload.adobe.com/bin/live/i···_aih.exe on a VM/PC to see if it's legit. I've checked it on virustotal.com and it came back positive for one company. I believe it installs Reveton. I don't have the means to test it myself.

Why don't you get the Flash update(s) from Adobe directly?

I didn't download it. Someone else did. The whois information says it's for Adobe. They downloaded/installed it and then bad things.

Well in that case perhaps they learned a lesson.

The site may well be Adobe's but I always use bookmarked legitimate download pages to get stuff. Even then I validate (digital signatures etc) and A/V scan the downloads.

Had to install it two times because chrome fought it was't up to date so it kept blocking Flash. Ended up having to unstall Flash and re download flash.

Those are stand-alone installers

Now that they're baked into IE 10, those should be fetchable via WU.

Others can update Flash via your preferred poisoning method.

Constant updates like this (and Java) is one of the main reasons why I'm using VIPRE Premium on my network and at most of my clients -- patch management at an inexpensive price. I can roll this puppy out to all the workstations with a few clicks. And VIPRE Premium is only a few dollars per workstation more per year than the AV-only version.

... what's the issue? It's an alternate download method for anyone who may wish to use those installers. Options are always appreciated. Clearly they must serve a purpose or Microsoft would not have made them available.

They sure are stand-alone installers.

You infer that Microsoft is offering "poisoned" installers?

Stand-alone installers tend to install more than a method other than using stand-alone installers.
