New critical vulnerabilities — but in the Flash and Shockwave players, for a change. Download the updates quickly (both Flash and Shockwave), because pretty much everyone, with a Mac or PC and whichever browser, uses the same plugin, so this has to be the most tempting vulnerability ever for hackers to exploit.

Oh, and the OS X Flash install seems pretty stupid in putting the plugin in my user account rather than globally for the system, so unless you want to move files yourself (or there’s a way to make it install correctly, I didn’t look much for it) you’ll have to run it for each user.

Want to know when I post new content to my blog? It's a simple as registering for free to an RSS aggregator (Feedly, NewsBlur, Inoreader, …) and adding www.ff00aa.com to your feeds (or www.garoo.net if you want to subscribe to all my topics). We don't need newsletters, and we don't need Twitter; RSS still exists.
