Flash has long been known as the bane of the Web because of its performance issues and security flaws. Even with less than a week to go before the year is out, another vulnerability has been discovered and thankfully, patched.
As with several other Flash gaffes, Adobe noted that the flaw could potentially allow a hacker to take control of a system and was exploited in ‘limited, targeted attacks’.
That brings the count to 316 Flash Player bugs for 2015 alone, or six bugs a week.
