I just saw this over at SANS: http://isc.sans.org/diary.html?storyid=3126

Flash player update: http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer/

and remember to visit that once with each type of browser you have installed, e.g. if you have a Windows system but installed FireFox, then visit with both IE and FF, so they're both equipped with the updated Flash Player. As widespread as Flash Player is, I'd bet a :cookie: the bad guys will be plotting to brew up some exploits for it.

Photoshop CS2 & CS3: http://www.adobe.com/support/s...lletins/apsb07-13.html

SANS notes that there are public exploits for these vulns.



Also, if you don't have your Windows Automagic Updates enabled, it's Microsoft's monthly "Patch Tuesday." There are updates for some Windows components at http://update.microsoft.com.

If you have Microsoft Office products (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, etc) you can check for updates at Office Update too. This is especially important if you have Office2000-generation products, which can't be updated via the Microsoft Update site. If your system needed an Office service pack, then go back again for another run after it's installed the service pack.
