OS X was vulnerable because of another hole in Flash

But there is a solution.

03-Flash-Update-2016


"You are still using Adobe Flash on a Mac? Then we go to you! ".
And if it is serious, Adobe rolled out another update to its Flash Player and the AIR, which is no surprise. But this case is different.
The fact that the company has closed a very serious vulnerability, known under the code name CVE-2016-1010. It could allow an attacker to remotely gain control over a user's Mac. And that all your personal information and passwords to social networks, and bank card information, and other important things. And it is not about some hypothetical hole secretly discovered specialists and promptly closed. It was her attackers used several times during attacks on users' computers.
In general, if Flash still lives on your Mac, it quickly update. Although Steve Jobs did not approve of the presence of the software. So it is better to remove the player. All the same, he himself will be discarded in the next couple of years.
If you still decide to continue to exist with holes and lag, then go to the Adobe Flash Player page and click on the "Update" button. But, most likely, the player himself has found the update and install it.
By the way, Apple is blocking older versions of Flash-player in Safari, but this process is not instantaneous.
Note that as an alternative to the system Flash, you can use the Chrome browser in a Flash-player which is integrated as a plug.
