Yesterday I blogged a Windows flaw for Adobe Flash player. Today I came across another advisory about a patch Apple just put out earlier this week for Adobe Flash. The security update also covers other software too. From SecurityFocus:

The update patches eight vulnerabilities in the open-source Apache Web server and seven vulnerabilities in Adobe’s Flash Player plug-in. While the Apache flaws amount to, at most, cross-site scripting attacks, the Flash Player flaws could allow a malicious Flash file (SWF) to execute on the victim’s system, Apple stated in its security advisory.

The company also fixed five vulnerabilities in its ImageIO component that could allow denial-of-service attacks, information leakage, and in one case, possible code execution. The update also patches two flaws in the kernel that allow both local and remote users the ability to shutdown the system. A flaw in the way that the Mac’s Mail program handles the Internet’s next-generation addressing scheme, IP version 6, could allow remote code execution, Apple stated.
