Security News > 2020 > June > Adobe Warns of Critical Flaws in Flash Player, Framemaker

Adobe released patches for four critical flaws in Flash Player and in its Framemaker document processor as part of its regularly scheduled updates.

In Tuesday's June Adobe security updates, critical flaws tied to three CVEs were patched in Adobe Framemaker, which is Adobe's application designed for writing and editing large or complex documents.

Of note, Adobe announced in July 2017 that it plans to push Flash into an end-of-life state, meaning that it will no longer update or distribute Flash Player at the end of this year.

The regularly scheduled updates come a month after Adobe fixed 16 critical flaws across its Acrobat and Reader applications and its Adobe Digital Negative Software Development Kit in May. If exploited, those flaws could lead to remote code execution.

In May, Adobe also issued an out-of-band patch for a critical flaw in Adobe Character Animator, its application for creating live motion-capture animation videos.
