Flash is actively used by malware authors to infect computers, due to its prevalence on all web browsers. Calyptix encourages everyone to upgrade!

In related news, Adobe Reader and Acrobat are still vulnerable. Adobe is planning to release new versions of these products on June 29, 2010. Mitigation techniques are detailed in their advisory (now includes mitigation techniques for Mac and UNIX).
