from the article:
"The security flaw exists in Adobe Flash Player 12.0.0.43 and earlier versions for Windows and OS X and 11.2.202.335 and earlier versions for Linux, according to an advisory published Tuesday morning. The vulnerability stems from an integer underflow bug in the underlying code that could be exploited to execute arbitrary code on the affected system. Because attackers can typically trigger such vulnerabilities surreptitiously after luring victims to websites hosting attacks, Adobe rated the threat as "critical," the company's highest severity category."
