Adobe has come out with a patch for Flash Player to fix a recent security problem.

Next to the Flash Player vulnerability publicized just a week ago, Adobe has patched another 11 holes in the software. Installations for Linux, Mac OS X and Windows are now at the Adobe website. The security bulletin has a few alternative download possibilities, as does also the Adobe download site.

The update version numbers are Flash Player 10.0.32.18 and 9.0.246.0. Subsequent patches for the Adobe Reader and Acrobat versions affected by the advisories are promised posthaste.
