Security updates available for Adobe Flash Player: CVE-2014-0497

I was going to ask why the flashplugin wasn't updated from 11.2.202.332 to 11.2.202.335 for three weeks....
Now we have an emergency update (11.2.202.336) released today.

Ah, whoops. I didn't open the bug report, it was another user. But the report got closed because it was an update (and no bug reports for updates were allowed, that's why I tried to post to arch-dev-public). In any case, I see in arch-dev-public that a dev took notice of this and now you can open bug reports for outdated packages if you're requesting a CVE fix.
or in the extreme case you can try e-mail the dev, but generally mark out of date is enough

UPDATE problem for Adobe Flash Player

Salut à tous,
Je suis sous Xp et Firefox, adobe a cessé de fonctionné avant hier, le jour justement d'une mise a jour, j'ai donc installé la nouvelle version en offline, Adobe flash player apparait installé dans mes programmes et dans les plugins Mozilla mais rien ne marche quand le plugin est activé, si je le désactive, certaines vidéos (qui ne nécessitent pas obligatoirement AFP, comme youtube ou yahoo) peuvent fonctionner mais c'est bien embêtant pour celles dont AFP est obligatoire...
Par exemple la page support adobe où l'on doit voir une animation de nuage, je ne la vois pas...?
Merci de vos avis éclairés!

I don't know what is causing your problem; I am currently here on Windows XP with Firefox 33.1.1 and Flash Player 15.0.0.239, and all works perfectly well.
I suggest you try a clean installation as described in https://forums.adobe.com/thread/928315

Does "8.1.2 and earlier versions" mean only earlier versions of v8? Or does it include version 6 and 7 and so on?
Thanks

HT2128 I keep on getting updates for Adobe Flash Player.app, are these safe to download?

I keep on getting messages to download updates for Adobe Flash Player.app however, I always get a warning message since it is an application downloaded from the internet and the question "Are you sure you want to open it?" Are these safe to download, or shall I cancel it? Perhaps it is best to go to the Adobe site? Any recommendations? Thank you very much.

It can be easier to remove Adobe Flash Player from OS X entirely, and be done with the effort involved. Adobe has a tool to remove Flash Player from OS X available. (If you really need Flash capabilities, there's a version embedded in the Chrome web browser that might suffice.)
As for your question, if you have gone directly to the Adobe web site (by entering the URL in Safair, and not by clicking on anyting in email or on another web site), and have downloaded Adobe Flash Player updates from there, then you're reasonably safe.
If you've downloaded the Adobe update bits from the Adobe site (and again, not from any other site), then clicking through the "yes, I know I downloaded this" is probably safe.

FOUND A FIX FOR ADOBE FLASH PLAYER 11.9.900.152

I have Windows 7, 64bit and Internet Explorer 11 installed. I found the fix for Adobe Flash Player after 2 days of doing everything. I thought that the fix should be something very easy and it was. I spent 2 full days doing all kinds of ridiculous things, i.e. uninstalling, reinstalling, restore computer, deactiving XActive, reactivating, changing stuff under internet options, etc. The problem was Internet Explorer 11 update caused Adobe Flash Player not to work or recognize the flash player, or installing a new router caused it not to work. Websites kept displaying messages to download Adobe Flash Player when I already did. There appeared to be a conflict where some videos played and other did not. Youtube did not work anymore. All the problems that other people posted under these forums happened to me. I could not play the games I was playing before, etc. Anyway, I am NOT a tech person and understand little and almost gave up when by accident I found the fix and EVERYTHING works without rebooting anything, uninstalling or reinstalling etc. as all the people in the forums posted. Everything was so complicated!!
THE FIX: Go to Goodgle Chrome browser. If you don't have it, download it. The Adobe Flash Player is included in this browser. Anyway, at the very top RIGHT HAND SIDE there are lines in a square formation. Click on that and go to SETTINGS. Go to very bottom and click on SHOW ADVANCED SETTINGS. SCROLL DOWN TO THE VERY BOTTOM and click on RESET BROWSER SETTINGS. After I did that, EVERYTHING WORKED!!!!!!!!!!! Youtube worked, my game worked in BOTH GOOGLE CHROME AND INTERNET EXPLORER 11. It was like a miracle and a simple fix.
I hope I can save some people ALOT of aggravation and frustration. Adobe should have this fix displayed PROMINENTLY EVERYWHERE if it is indeed this simple. Let me know if this helps. All I know is that I had the same issues as everyone else in the forums and now it is all fixed. I have very limited knowledge, almost none. It just seemed that something was blocking the videos from coming up.

Thanks Mike. I'm not sure what I'm doing but I also re-downloaded the flash player and I got YouTube videos to play again. I have IE11 that I tried to uninstall (it won't let me) so I had to use a restore point, so videos I noticed in yahoo.ca can't play but I read lots of people having issues with this. But, by using a restore point, and re-downloading the flash player (a couple of time until it took), I got Youtube and my game back on IE11. I plan to use Chrome Google though after this experience as everything works there

How do I sign up for Adobe Flash Player Extended Support Versions?

I looked on the website but was unable to find how to sign up for Adobe Flash Player Extended Support.
Thanks in advance for the help.

Hi UtahDano,
Can you tell me where you saw '2013'? I looked on Adobe Flash Player Distribution | Adobe, Adobe - Adobe Runtimes / Reader Distribution License Agreement, and Adobe Runtimes / Reader Distribution Agreement, and I'm not seeing '2013'. Once I find out exactly where this is at, I can forward it to the appropriate folks to update.
Thank you.

How can I update the "basic" Adobe Flash Player that is in my Samsung Smart TV?

How can I update the "basic" Adobe Flash Player that is in my Samsung Smart TV?

Any update would come from Samsung, but in low-margin products like TVs, it's pretty uncommon for OEMs to provide ongoing maintenance over a large span of years. You may find that you'll get a better experience from a dedicated streaming box like ChromeCast/Roku/etc.

After downloading, you need to install Flash Player. Double-click the downloaded file to install it.

Even when i have updated version of adobe flash player, some sites do not play video

Hi,
Even when i have updated version of adobe flash player and active x from adobe.com, some sites do not play the video. A request box, install the plug in comes. When i click it, it again tries to install the same version of adobe, which i have already downloaded. it is only for some sites.
May be it is because, it is site problem? How to overcome it

ActiveX is part of the Windows operating system. Plus the ActiveX version of Adobe Flash is for Internet Explorer. Other browsers need their own version of Flash' Firefox needs the Plugin version of Flash.
If you go to the Adobe website to download Flash while using Firefox, Adobe will provide the correct version of Flash automatically. Just make sure you de-select any other programs that Adobe may want to stick you with before you actually download Flash. Then close Firefox and run the Adobe Flash installer.

I recently installed Java 6 update 33, and adobe flash player 11 plugin, and now can't play any videos from any website in Mozilla, but Google Chrome works.

Cannot play any video from any website in Mozilla after installing Java 6 update 33, and adobe flash player 11 plugin. However, I can play videos from Google Chrome and also from Internet Explorer. For example, when I'm trying to play a you tube video in Mozilla, a black screen comes up with following error message: "An error has occurred. Please try again later."
(This is like the Wizard of Oz -- when the man comes to the little window in the door and says to Dorothy, "Come back tomorrow." )

This may be caused by a recent Flash 11.3 update.

What Apple app works for adobe flash player?

On christmas i bought my iPad 3G+wi fi, my first dissapoint was to play in internet adobe flash video in two sites www.tuparada.com and www.integridadysabiduria.org, appstore recommends some apps equivalent to adobe flash, i tried Skyfire ($4.95) but it doesn't work, and i lost my money because Skyfire said they can not refund because Apple doesn' has policy refund, anyway my core cuestión is : how can i play internet vídeos which request adobe flash player.?

I think Apple should probably have to take most seriously this problem, because this kind of video is high popular , besides retailers do not quote the warning that we will not be allowed to play this type of video

There is no guaranteed solution for the iPad as flash is not and probably never will be supported.
Apart from Skyfire there a browser apps such as iSwifter, Puffin and Photon which 'work' on some sites, but judging by their reviews not all sites.

PS I'm still new to Macs so the more broken down the better.

Adobe Flash Player 11.8.800.42 is the most recent version from Adobe. It is a pre-release version. I am using it without any noticeable problems.
The current stable version is Download 11.7.700.169.
