More patches everyone! As always Adobe Flash and Reader programs are popular targets for drive by downloads and spear phishing attacks. There are patches for Apple Safari, Google Chrome, and Mozilla Firefox which all have potential arbitrary code execution vulnerabilities. Apply these patches if you use these browsers. Finally, apply the patch for Mozilla Thunderbird if this is the email client that is being used.
