Also of interest to IE10 users is the MSRC Blog post, Security Advisory 2755801 addresses Adobe Flash Player issues, which includes the following:

With respect to Adobe Flash Player in Internet Explorer 10, customers can expect the following:

• On a quarterly basis when Adobe normally issues Flash Player updates, we will coordinate on disclosure and release timing.
• When the threat landscape requires action outside of Adobe’s normal update cadence, we will also work to align our release schedules. For example, this may mean that in some cases we will issue updates outside of our regular monthly security bulletin release.
