  Unspecified vulnerability in Adobe Reader and Acrobat 9.x through
  9.1.2, and Adobe Flash Player 9.x through 9.0.159.0 and 10.x through
  10.0.22.87, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via (1)
  a crafted Flash application in a .pdf file or (2) a crafted .swf
  file, related to authplay.dll, as exploited in the wild in July 2009.

Comment 2 Joseph Yasi 2009-07-31 01:57:29 UTC
Flash v10.0.32.18 has been released which is supposed to fix this bug.
Comment 3 Jeroen Roovers (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-07-31 03:18:46 UTC
Copying adobe-flash-10.0.22.87-r2.ebuild worked fine on the x86.
Comment 4 Mike Gualtieri 2009-07-31 13:50:34 UTC
I also wanted to note that the flash-10.0.22.87 has been removed from adobe's website (as per usual).

Thanks for doing this!

Next time feel free to bump 9.0.x.0 as well - They release the 2 in tandem, though I'm not 100% sure why I'm carrying the version 9 software, other than because I can.

x86 stable, all arches done.
