Adobe hat außer der Reihe ein Sicherheits-Update für den Flash Player bereit gestellt. Es beseitigt jedoch nur eine von zwei bereits ausgenutzten Schwachstellen. Bis dahin lautet die Empfehlung vieler Sicherheitsexperten: Windows-Nutzer sollten den Flash Player deinstallieren oder zumindest im Browser deaktivieren. Video-Portale wie Youtube liefern Inhalte inzwischen auch per HTML 5 aus, der Flash Player wird dafür nicht mehr benötigt. Wie Kafeine in einem kurzen Test unter Windows 8.1 (32 Bit) festgestellt hat, scheint Microsofts Anti-Exploit-Tool EMET 5.1 die Ausnutzung der Flash-Lücken durch Angler im Internet Explorer zu verhindern.

Adobe and Microsoft each issued security updates today to fix critical vulnerabilities in their software. Adobe’s fixes include a patch for a Flash Player flaw that is actively being exploited to break into Windows computers. Microsoft’s Patch Tuesday release includes nine patch bundles — more than half of them rated critical — addressing at least 27 security holes in Windows and related software.
Nevertheless, the underlying vulnerability being targeted exists in Windows, Mac and Linux versions of the software. Windows and Mac users can grab the latest version (v. 11.3.300.271) via the Flash Player download center.
Be sure to uncheck the “free” software scans that Adobe loves to bundle with updates, such as McAfee‘s obnoxious Security Scan Plus, if you don’t want it. Linux users should update to v. 11.2.202.238, and Chrome users want to be at v. 11.3.330.270 (normally Chrome auto-updates Flash, but recently it’s been sluggish to do so: my Chrome installation is still at v. 11.3.31.225. I will update this post in a bit with the direct links to the Flash Player downloads.

Die meisten Schadprogramme nutzen bekannte Lücken in populärer Software aus. Dabei handelt es sich sogar nur um ganz wenige Tools, die einen Großteil der insgesamt bekannten Sicherheitslücken auf sich versammeln.
Hält man diese wenigen Programme immer auf dem aktuellen Stand, dann ist der eigene Windows-Rechner bereits relativ sicher. Mit wenig Aufwand erreicht man also viel Sicherheit.
