Apple Pushes Mandatory Flash Update in Wake of Zero-Day Disclosures | CyberSecurity | Apple, Mac, MacOS, iOS4, iPad, iPhone and (in)security... | Scoop.it
Apple is pushing out a mandatory update for Adobe Flash in the wake of the recent disclosure of three zero-day vulnerabilities that are actively being exploited in the wild.

Mac OS X will find that Flash has been disabled on their devices and will see popup messages urging them to install the latest updates if they want to continue to use the software.

“If you’re using an out-of-date version of the Adobe Flash Player plug-in, you may see the message ‘Blocked plug-in’, ‘Flash Security Alert’ or ‘Flash out-of-date’ when attempting to view Flash content in Safari. To continue viewing Flash content, update to a later version of Adobe Flash Player. Click the Download Flash button. Safari opens the Adobe Flash Player page on the Adobe website,” the advisory from Apple stated.
