Yesterday, Adobe released an update for the recently-discovered Flash security vulnerability CVE-2015-7645. Kudos to Adobe for acting quickly to fix this bug, which is being actively exploited on the web.

The new version of Flash (19.0.0.226) addresses the CVE-2015-7645 vulnerability and two others. Additional details are available in the associated security bulletin. Other changes in this version of Flash are described in a post on the Flash runtime announcement site.

As usual, Internet Explorer on newer versions of Windows will get the new version of Flash via Windows Update, and Chrome will update itself via its own auto-updater.

If you’re still using Flash in a web browser, you need to install this update as soon as possible.
