Google Chrome 27.0.1453.116 released
Yesterday, Google announced another new version of their web browser, Chrome.
The new version is 27.0.1453.116, and it includes a few security fixes, as well as the latest integrated version of Flash (11.7.700.225).
Flash clickjacking vulnerability not really fixed
A Flash vulnerability supposedly already fixed by Adobe is still a problem in some browser/platform combinations. This clickjacking exploit works by hiding a Flash security dialog under other page content, enticing the user into unintentionally clicking the dialog and allowing remote access to the user’s camera and microphone. Be careful what you click!
