[opensuse] 13.1 FF38 - sites complain Flash Player is Vulnerable

All, I have had several sites pop-up warnings that flash-player is vulnerable and request confirmation before viewing. noaa.weather.gov being the latest. I have the following installed: flash-player-11.2.202.457-174.1.x86_64 Is this not the latest? I've checked and there are no newer versions. Am I missing a patch or something? If so, where to get? -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

It has 11.2.202.468 in the 13.1 non-oss update channel since a week. can you check if that is in your repo list, and enabled? zypper patch ? Ciao, Marcus -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Thanks Marcus, I usually wait for the package rather than the patch. If things go south I can easily roll-back from /var/cache/rpm. I'll check the repo (I have it enabled) -- David C.

Marcus, Sorry for the noise. It was there. I checked non-oss, not update-non-oss (sheesh) -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

The Factory/Tumbleweed non-oss repository has for some reason not published, even though the new flash-player is in the project there. I mailed Adrian and Coolo. Ciao, Marcus -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Can you post a link to a page that gives that warning? noaa.weather.gov gives me server not found. I tried "http://www.weather.gov/", but I don't see flash animations there. I clicked on a random place and got to http://www.srh.noaa.gov/tlh/, where the radar animation is a plain gif.

I have flash-player-11.2.202.468-123.1.x86_64, that's the latest on 13.1. Yours is a bit older, certainly. By the way: using the patch you can generate the full updated rpm, there is a command for that. If after that regeneration the checksum doesn't match, then the logic is to ignore it and download the full rpm instead. Just run "zypper patch" or YOU and it will apply it automatically... - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
