This month there are 6 patch releases from Adobe and 1 for both Chrome and Firefox. A security advisory for Adobe Flash was released this month stating that there are active attacks exploiting CVE-2016-4171. Apply the patch for Adobe Flash as soon as possible since attackers are using spearphishing emails with malicious links to exploit this vulnerability. Chrome and Firefox both resolve numerous vulnerabilities in their newest release. Finish off this month of non-Microsoft patches by reviewing the remaining Adobe patches for Air, ColdFusion, DNG, Brackets, and Creative Cloud.
