Internet Security: Adobe's Flash, reader loophole exploited

This was an update that was released last Friday. Reportedly, Adobe's Flash reader, vulnerabilities, were exploited by Cyber attackers and left the latest version of its player, the 10.0.45.2. If it does affects the latest version, so as the older versions of Windows, Mac, Linux and Solaris media players.

Also vulnerable: PDF viewer Adobe Reader 9.x and PDF creation software Adobe Acrobat 9.x on Windows, Macintosh and Unix.

According to Secunia, a Danish bug tracker, the latest threat is extremely critical. A critical threat indeed, that, it made the US computer Emergency Readiness Team (US-CERT) on the alert and posted security warnings for the threat.

Sounds Alarming but it is that really a critical mess that these attackers have discovered within Adobe's Flash Shell?
