Adobe Flash Player 11.2 released with silent updates

Adobe Flash Player 11.2 released with silent updates

Adobe has just rolled out its Flash Player 11.2 which will ensure that a couple of critical arbitrary code execution vulnerabilities are fixed, in addition to a silent update option. Before we move on in greater detail concerning the silent update option, let us take a closer look at the patched vulnerabilities. They start off from previous versions of the Flash Player checking out URL security domains which affect only the Flash Player ActiveX plug-in for Internet Explorer on Windows 7 or Vista. These vulnerabilities can result in memory corruptions, and can be used as a backdoor to execute arbitrary code remotely.
