look for your installed flash version here:
http://www.adobe.com/de/software/flash/about

Newest Linux version: 11.2.202.273

If yours is lower, then:

Code Select Expand

update-flashplugin-nonfree -iv


Wegen schwerwiegender sicherheitslücken
( http://www.heise.de/newsticker/meldung/Schon-wieder-Notfall-Update-fuer-Flash-Player-1811996.html )
muß das flash-plugin upgedatet werden, und zwar auf version 11.2.202.273. Mit dem link oben kann man die version feststellen.

Thanks for the warning michaa7.

Anyway, there's now even an easier way to check if your installed version of Flash is out of date:

Code Select Expand

update-flashplugin-nonfree --status |grep Flash

[mylo]

Code Select Expand

pol update-flashplugin-nonfree -iv
provides me:

Code Select Expand

pol update-flashplugin-nonfree
N: Paket update-flashplugin-nonfree kann nicht gefunden werden.

Those are commands that apply to the package flashplugin-nonfree, not packages on their own.

Code Select Expand

update-flashplugin-nonfree -iv

is not a package, it is a command.  The package is "flashplugin-nonfree".

EDIT:  Ooops, sorry Devil.  zu langsam.

devil, dibl,

thanks for extending my understanding.
