Description Tim Sammut (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2012-03-28 14:26:38 UTC
From $URL:

These priority 2 updates address critical vulnerabilities in Adobe Flash Player 11.1.102.63 and earlier versions for Windows, Macintosh, Linux and Solaris, and Adobe Flash Player 11.1.111.7 and earlier versions for Android 3.x and 2.x. These vulnerabilities could cause a crash and potentially allow an attacker to take control of the affected system.

Adobe recommends users of Adobe Flash Player 11.1.102.63 and earlier versions for Windows, Macintosh and Linux update to Adobe Flash Player 11.2.202.228. Users of Adobe Flash Player 11.1.102.63 and earlier versions for Solaris should update to Adobe Flash Player 11.2.202.223. Users of Adobe Flash Player 11.1.111.7 and earlier versions for Android 3.x and earlier versions should update to Flash Player 11.1.111.8.

I'm seeing major graphical corruption issues and all YouTube videos have a blue tint under this version of flash with nvidia GTX570 with x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-290.10. No x86 signoff.

Adobe know this issue and will not fix it. You have to manually disable harware acceleration. Also it happens on amd64 too.
