Patch your Flash player ASAP!

Adobe fixes 6 flaws in Flash

For the second time in two days, Adobe Systems Inc. has warned users of multiple vulnerabilities in one of its most-popular programs and issued a security update to plug the holes.

Wednesday's update was the fourth patch job on the ubiquitous Flash Player this year, and followed by one day an even larger collection of fixes for Adobe Reader, the Web's default PDF application.

The Flash Player update addressed six bugs in Version 9.0.124.0 that run the range from cross-site scripting and information disclosure vulnerabilities to flaws that could be used to inject malicious HTML code in Web sites and launch "DNS rebinding" attacks.
