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

rtfreedman · 2014-02-04 22:06:59

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.

Pardon me - should have been posted to https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewforum.php?id=24

You might want to also file a bug report: https://www.archlinux.org/packages/extr … ashplugin/

Moved to Announcements, Package and Security Advisories by (I think) request.

You are welcome, but actually, I messed up. That sub-forum is really only for developers. Moving it back

I just posted in arch-dev-public about this. Hopefully we'll get a package soon. If you don't want to wait, a user has uploaded flashplugin-aur to AUR with the latest version of Flash. I advice you to update to that version until the maintainer gets the latest version in the extra repository.

Unless you are a developer, you cannot post to [arch-dev-public]. You can post to [arch-general], but even then, you will probably just be told to open a bug report (which i see you have).

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 In any case, I see in arch-dev-public that a dev took notice of this and now you can open bug reports for outdated packages if you're requesting a CVE fix.

or in the extreme case you can try e-mail the dev, but generally mark out of date is enough
