Adobe Announces Flash Distribution and Updates to End

KEK LMAO

>Adobe has announced it will stop distributing and updating Flash Player at the end of 2020 and is encouraging web developers to migrate any existing Flash content to open standards. Apple is working with Adobe, industry partners, and developers to complete this transition.

>Apple users have been experiencing the web without Flash for some time. iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch never supported Flash. For the Mac, the transition from Flash began in 2010 when Flash was no longer pre-installed. Today, if users install Flash, it remains off by default. Safari requires explicit approval on each website before running the Flash plugin.

>To display rich interactive content in the browser, WebKit—the engine that powers Safari—supports the latest standards, including the following:

OH FUG

>Ive always liked flash but holy fuck the vulnerabilities
forgive my ignorance but how do you exploit software if you don't know how it works (source code not available)?

Adobe BTFO

>implying any of us will be alive by 2020

Oh woah, holy shit. I just realized none of the old funny shit I used to laugh at will be playable.

This is the end of an era.

steve was right

>steve was right

From the grave

Steve didn't kill Flash.
He simply predicted its death.
It should have been obvious when Flash for Android was killed.
Even more so when Silverlight went.

AIDSDOBE IS FINISHED & BANKRUPT

For instance: if you have a binary of a program inplementing some network protocol, you can run automated randomised tests on it, basically flood it with garbage or semi-garbage, and wait until it crashes. You then reprofuce this bug and watch what happens to the program's data.

Besides, in theory, you can always look at the assembler code and search bugs there.

>be adobe

>lose proprietary PDF
>forced to discontinue flash
>accidentally wipe your CS2 license validation servers and have to give away license keys for free

BAHAAHAHA

>>>accidentally wipe your CS2 license validation servers and have to give away license keys for free
what, cs2 is free?

Look the catalog before posting, faggot

"Flash is dead... and we killed him"
- Steve

>you can run automated randomised tests on it
any examples of such software?

QUICK SOMEBODY ARCHIVE THE ENTIRETY OF NEWGROUNDS, KONGREGATE, MINICLIP, ONEMORELEVEL, ETC

Thank fuck.
Flash is one big security hole.

But now they're going to stop updating it, we'll have a permanently insecure version of flash rolling around! Fun!

There might be ready software that does it, but more probably some custom scripts and software are used. It all depends on the specific case, so it's hard to make tools for this kind of work. The ones that exist either check for known vulnerabilities or have such broad use cases that you could as well write it all by yourself. If you are interested in pen testing, you can check out the list of software in Kali Linux.

Yeah, if you look in the right places for a URL.

They released a DRM free version of CS2 and the associated programmes.

And /f/.
Fuck man.

Press P to piss on grave

P

Apple did this

But how where and when will I be able to play hentai flash games online?

> rip flash games. will be missed.
LOVED armor games.

Also one of the biggest company we deal with has flash banner / menu on their site..

RIP in pieces.

>Flash is one big security hole.
This is a meme.
Been hearing this since when.. 2000? And there was never a single proper widespread attack whatsoever. It's just bullshit.

Also Chrome had proper sandbox for Flash since day 0.

Chrome has Pepper-flash, which is completely independant from Adobe Flash.

I love this meme

RIP sweet Prince.

Good think adobe air still exists

>completely independant from Adobe Flash
It's literally sandboxed adobe flash with a newer API
Nothing more

>what, cs2 is free?

With html5 obsoleting flash, an endless selection of superior pdf software, and gimp photo editor every bit as good as photoshit, adobe is pretty much bankrupt and finished.
Kind of sad.

Free CS2 for everyone? Why have I not heard of this?

it's not free
it means "we no longer check whether you are using pirated product"

So it's free

i'll feel less guilty about it than if i pirated it for real

you're still pirating it for real. it's still not any more legal than using a keygen or whatever

>feeling guilty about pirating
user are you gay?

how could you tell?
