Apple has issued a new update for Adobe’s Flash Player browser plugin. The update fixes “a recently-identified Adobe Flash Player web plug-in vulnerability,” according to Apple’s website. Users will be automatically prompted to install the update when visiting a page that uses Flash Player.
The prompt in Safari will take users to the Flash Player download page on Adobe’s website. Users who haven’t yet seen the prompt can also go there to download the update now.

That update is time-stamped October 24th?
Ha! Flash player…good one.
Flash needs to disappear along with Internet Explorer 6
Yes, even my employer still use IE 6…THE HORROR!!!! No wonder our registers are so slow (plus the program looks like it was written in Visual Basic lol), old fashion ones are FAST and ISSUE FREE compared to ours!! :D
I’m not getting this update,
then again, I’ve never installed flash in safari…
Flash needs to disappear period. I haven’t installed it when upgrading to 10.9 and when a website tells me I need to install Flash I simply set the user agent to an iPad. Problem solved.
Apple does this with virtually every single Adobe Flash update. This isn’t even remotely new, or news.
The 15.0.0.223 Flash update was released back on the 11th of November—am I missing something here?
No Flash, no Acrobat Reader on my Apple products. No Adobe, no Microsoft, no Google. Don’t want them, don’t need them. Wait . . . I use Skype, but that’s it.
