Emergency patch for Zero Day Vulnerability Under Attack

Additional details are available in the linked article below but Adobe has released an update to the Adobe Flash Player that is currently being exploited in targeted attacks.  According to the article, the vulnerability is multi-platform and affects Windows (Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 8.1 and Windows 10 and presumably Windows Server OSs if Flash Player is installed there as well), Mac and Linux.  The Flash version affected is 23.0.0.185 and earlier and users with [now] out-of-date versions should update to 23.0.0.205 as soon as possible. 

Cyber Tech Cafe MyIT customers will be protected after their next computer reboot.  Others should navigate to the Adobe Security page for additional information on the update and to download and install.
