Security Advisory 2755801 addresses Adobe Flash Player issues - MSRC - 
Site Home - TechNet Blogs:

Today we released Security Advisory 2755801 
<http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/security/advisory/2755801> that 
addresses vulnerabilities in Adobe Flash Player in Internet Explorer 10 
on Windows 8. The majority of customers have automatic updates enabled 
and will not need to take any action because protections will be 
downloaded and installed automatically. Customers who do not use 
automatic updates should apply the guidance in the advisory immediately 
using update management software, or by checking the Microsoft Update 
service, to help ensure protection.

We recognize there has been some discussion about our update process as 
it relates to Adobe Flash Player. Microsoft is committed to taking the 
appropriate actions to help protect our customers and we are working 
closely with Adobe to deliver quality protections that are aligned with 
Adobe’s update process.

With respect to Adobe Flash Player in Internet Explorer 10, customers 
can expect the following:

  * On a quarterly basis when Adobe normally issues Flash Player
    updates, we will coordinate on disclosure and release timing.
  * When the threat landscape requires action outside of Adobe’s normal
    update cadence, we will also work to align our release schedules.
    For example, this may mean that in some cases we will issue updates
    outside of our regular monthly security bulletin release.

As always, we recommend customers visit the Advisory for more 
information and make sure the update is deployed as soon as possible to 
help ensure that they are protected.
