Yesterday when I powered up my Windows 7 IE11 desktop, a Flash player update screen popped up. I let it install (minus the annoying "Do you want this default browser, search engine, yada yada yada" pitch).

Checked just now, and I have version 16.0.0.296, which I assume patched the vulnerability. Will check the Windows 8.1 laptop that my wife uses in a few minutes. Thanks very much for posting your valuable and timely threads!

Interesting. I just checked Adobe's site and it still lists 16.0.0.287 as the current version. A scan with Secunia PSI shows the latest version to be 16.0.0.296 but Adobe doesn't seem to have it.

“Checked just now, and I have version 16.0.0.296”

Where exactly do you check for that?
