Flash Player 13 released

Yesterday, Adobe announced a new version of Flash, 13.0.0.182. The new version includes fixes for several security vulnerabilities (including one of the two found at Pwn2Own), as well as numerous other bug fixes and enhancements. There are also some new features, but these are mostly of interest to developers. The official release notes page has all the details.

As usual, the integrated versions of Flash in Internet Explorer 10 and 11 will be updated via Windows Update, and Chrome’s integrated Flash will be updated automatically by the browser itself.

About jrivett

Jeff Rivett has worked with and written about computers since the early 1980s. His first computer was an Apple II+, built by his father and heavily customized. Jeff's writing appeared in Computist Magazine in the 1980s, and he created and sold a game utility (Ultimaker 2, reviewed in the December 1983 Washington Apple Pi Journal) to international markets during the same period. Proceeds from writing, software sales, and contract programming gigs paid his way through university, earning him a Bachelor of Science (Computer Science) degree at UWO. Jeff went on to work as a programmer, sysadmin, and manager in various industries. There's more on the About page, and on the Jeff Rivett Consulting site.
