The security hole discovered late last weekend, as we mentioned before, could allow malicious users to harm Windows machines by means of spacial design of Flash animation. The second security update (described in Microsoft Security Advisory 2755801) is to fix the Flash exploit found on Windows 8’s IE10. This was a security issue that could cause Adobe Flash to crash, while allowing unauthorized to the computer. Even though the operating system hasn’t been released, there are already many companies and people developing software with the Release to Manufacture or RTM version — Microsoft plans to make Windows 8 available to the public on October 26th, right after the launch event the day before in New York City. The patches are now available for Windows 8, Windows 7, Vista and Windows XP via Microsoft’s Windows update service.
