Macromedia vulnerabilities and flash update:

seEye reports [1] that Macromedia Flash contains a buffer overflow,
allowing execution of arbitary code and thus to take over the machine
(gain the same rights as the user).

Macromedia confirmed [2] the bug and released a new version of Flash [3].

eEye also claims that it found 17 (!) other overflows, which it is
resolving with Macromedia now.
