    Adobe Flashplayer security update for Cerber Ransomware

    MS hasn't released a Flash Player update for Win10 yet. Chances are one will be released on Tuesday the 12th along with a new Cumulative Security Update for Win10.

    As long as v21.0.0.182 is installed, you're OK in the interim according to Adobe:

    • "A mitigation introduced in Flash Player 21.0.0.182 currently prevents exploitation of this vulnerability [thereby] protecting users running Flash Player 21.0.0.182..."
