Bug Description

Adobe has released security updates for Adobe Flash Player for Windows, Macintosh, Linux and Chrome OS. These updates address an important out-of-bounds read vulnerability that could lead to information exposure.

This affects version 28.0.0.126, which is the current package in all Ubuntu releases.
