Title: Adobe Patches Vulnerabilities Under Active Exploitation in
Monthly Flash Player Security Bulletin
Description: Adobe has released their monthly Flash Player security
bulletin to address vulnerabilities, one of which is currently under
active exploitation in the wild. CVE-2016-4117 is a type-confusion
vulnerability that was originally reported to Adobe by FireEye. 24 other
security vulnerabilities were also addressed in the bulletin with the
the majority of them being use-after-free flaws and memory corruption

disable or remove Flash from their browser if it’s not necessary and to
otherwise patch as soon as possible if removal is not an option.
