Security error in Macromedia Flash
Macromedia finally acknowledged and announced a serious security bug in Flash Player 7 and earlier versions.
The security bug was discovered by security firm eEye Digital Security in June, but Macromedia released a patch until four months later.
This security error is considered serious for Macromedia because hackers can insert malicious code into this player so that they can then be executed, resulting in damage to the user's system.
Macromedia recommends that users install or upgrade Flash Player 8 to patch this security.
However, Macromedia also said that users who want to use Flash Player 7 or the system configuration are not suitable for using the latest version of Flash Player, a small fix will be released.
