It is highly advised for all users of Adobe Shockwave Player (and there it is used on more then 450 million computers) to update it to the last version 11.5.1.602. Adobe Systems itself classified this update as “critical” as it is fixing 5 vulnerabilities, 4 of which may allow an attacker to execute malicious code on a computer, while the fifth one could lead to a denial-of-service condition. Since the vulnerabilities in operating systems have become something quickly dealt with, hackers tend to use vulnerabilities in third party applications as this one more often. Urgent update is advised by both the Adobe Systems Company and IT specialists.
