Flash Player 10 closes dangerous vulnerability in the player

29th October 2008

The vulnerability in Flash Player, which allows hackers to use a new type of attacks aimed at remote turning on the microphone and the webcam of the computer, was closed in the tenth version of the player. This was officially confirmed by representatives of Adobe. That is why all users are encouraged to download Flash Player 10. The update covering this vulnerability in Flash 9, will be released only in a month.
It should be remembered that using the vulnerability in the player, hackers can force the user to visit a malicious site and make a few mouse clicks on it. Despite the fact that such an action, at first glance, seems innocent, in fact, thanks to these clicks hackers can gain remote access to the microphone and a web camera connected to your computer.
