version of their app) is here:
Gentoo Linux Security Advisory 201506-1 – Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in Adobe Flash Player, the worst of which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code. Versions less than 11.2.202.466 are affected.
Ubuntu Security Notice 2646-2 – The Fix for CVE-2015-1328 introduced a regression into the Linux kernel’s overlayfs file system. The removal of a directory that only exists on the lower layer results in a kernel panic. Philip Pettersson discovered a privilege escalation when using overlayfs mounts inside of user namespaces. A local user could exploit this flaw to gain administrative privileges on the system. Various other issues were also addressed.
