Adobe has released Version 23.0.0.185 of Adobe Flash Player for Microsoft Windows, Macintosh and Chrome as well as Version 11.2.202.637 for Linux. The Extended Support Release for Windows and Macintosh was updated to Version 18.0.0.382.

The updates are to address important bug fixes and critical vulnerabilities that could potentially allow an attacker to take control of the affected system.

Warning: Although Adobe suggests downloading the update from the Adobe Flash Player Download Center, that link includes a pre-checked option to install unnecessary extras, such as McAfee Scan Plus or Google Drive. If you use the download center, uncheck any unnecessary extras.
