So, only 8 patch(6 for Vulnerability, excluding Flash Player) today for Windows, Adobe Flash Player 16.0.0.257 and Adobe Air 16.0.0.245, no Office, IE or any other Microsoft product. :)

Look like we has some critical update for Adobe, but you can "only" update it by using auto-update from Adobe, until January 26.
It should update your Adobe Flash Player to 16.0.0.296, and for IE(Windows 8+) and Chrome user, please waiting Windows or Google push the update, or just download the PPAPI version for your Chrome.... :)

For user that like to disable auto-update like me, you can just enable Click to Play or ActiveX filtering to only run it when you need it... :P

Summary

A critical vulnerability (CVE-2015-0311) exists in Adobe Flash Player 16.0.0.287 and earlier versions for Windows and Macintosh.  Successful exploitation could cause a crash and potentially allow an attacker to take control of the affected system.  We are aware of reports that this vulnerability is being actively exploited in the wild via drive-by-download attacks against systems running Internet Explorer and Firefox on Windows 8.1 and below.

UPDATE (January 24): Users who have enabled auto-update for the Flash Player desktop runtime will be receiving version 16.0.0.296 beginning on January 24. This version includes a fix for CVE-2015-0311. Adobe expects to have an update available for manual download during the week of January 26, and we are working with our distribution partners to make the update available in Google Chrome and Internet Explorer 10 and 11. For more information on updating Flash Player please refer to this post.

Edit:People on MozillaZine has telling me other source to get the latest installer, and here it is. :)
PS:Sadly, it don't provide PPAPI version...
https://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.html
----
On the other side, If you are like to run Java Online Installer, please be aware that, if you are doing that in China, you will receive Baidu's Family(China version, like Anti-virus or other software) as there are some CDN or ISP injected/changed the page that it will be loading, or the file that Java will be downloaded.

And yes, Baidu's software China version(not international, they only do this once in past.) are malware, so far if you got one of their software, then you will receive the Baidu Anti-virus which you can't uninstall it.(Yes, they will come back after a restart, and it is hard to clean it.) >:(

BenYeeHua

Some update, Microsoft released the new update for Adobe, you should also get the latest version for Chrome. :)
https://technet.microsoft.com/library/security/2755801

BenYeeHua

New update for Adobe(v16.0.0.305), which is fixing the drive-by-download attacks, you should update it now.
I guess it is a hard days for Adobe. :)

Secure Channel cumulative update changes TLS protocol renegotiation and fallback behavior
QuoteApplications or services that use the Secure Channel (SChannel) security support provider, such as Internet Explorer, may incorrectly negotiate to non-Microsoft website hosts by using the Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol. Therefore, the affected application may not establish a connection or may be instructed to negotiate the use of a less-secure protocol such as Secure Sockets Layer protocol version 3.0 (SSL 3.0).

This issue occurs because some third-party implementations of the TLS protocol do not correctly negotiate when empty TLS extensions are present at the end of the extension list.
Simple English, it make sure it will use TLS first, for some server. :)
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/3023607

---Windows
QuoteThis security update resolves a privately reported vulnerability in Microsoft Windows. The vulnerability could allow security feature bypass if an attacker, by way of a man-in-the-middle attack, causes the Group Policy Security Configuration Engine policy file on a targeted system to become corrupted or otherwise unreadable. This results in the Group Policy settings on the system to revert to their default, and potentially less secure, state.
Fixed vulnerability in Group Policy, that can be created by corrupt the policy file, and it will revert the settings to default. :P

QuoteAn elevation of privilege vulnerability exists in Microsoft Windows when it fails to properly validate and enforce impersonation levels. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could bypass impersonation-level security checks and gain elevated privileges on a targeted system. This vulnerability can be exploited only in the specific scenario where the process uses SeAssignPrimaryTokenPrivilege, which is not available for normal processes.
https://technet.microsoft.com/library/security/MS15-015

Fixed Windows Activation don't works, caused by Task Scheduler don't start the events correctly
QuoteThis issue occurs because the Task Scheduler does not correctly trigger events including the rescheduling of events when the computer is started after an overdue task. Therefore, the Software Protection Platform service (sppsvc.exe) does not start.

Yup, but the Windows Update always don't notice you when it has a new update/push, by using the notification.
(but they always force restart after you installed the update)
They just notice you with the yellow color texts on the bottom right corner when the system is booting, which is most people are going to make some drinks or coffees. ;)
(They also reporting it via the Action Center, but who gonna click it when it don't change the icon...)

I hope they are adding this feature for Windows 10 notification, as the notification is only used by Modern apps, and also a few desktop apps for reporting the boot time. :P

Which is mostly what Flash is used for these days, aside from games (obviously).

Microsoft's Silverlight was supposed to replace flash. It had some success. Amazon Video uses it, at least optionally.

But, like many Microsoft and large corporate projects, they are too quick to abandon them if they don't achieve instant market success. If I had done the same with the first years of Bitsum, none of this would exist. Persistence - it has it's rewards ;).

Jeremy Collake

That's what you call Microsoft executives exerting their political persuasion to other executives of big companies. That is what Bitsum faces as well, these larger entities often have high-level corporate agreements made that even senior engineers can't object to.

e.g.

CTO of company X says: I have the perfect solution for you! It will save you bandwidth, improve video quality, and more!
CTO of company Y says: Wow! That'd be great! Let's sign an agreement right now!

Senior engineer of company Y says: WTF?!? Why didn't you consult me?
CTO of company Y says: This agreement was made above your head. Just get it done.

That said, Silverlight does play video just fine ;).
Software Engineer. Bitsum LLC.

BenYeeHua

Yup, Flash and Silverlight can playing video just fine, as it can using hardware acceleration, so it was just 1-5% CPU for watching video.
(For Flash, except you are using Firefox which is not forcing it, and also Chrome which forcing it but need to take some CPU and I/O to copying around)

With China, they rarely use hardware acceleration for unknown reason, but at least for now, it can be used by right click on the player and select it.

They also famous with real-time overlaying subtitle system, which is came(copy) from NicoNico.
This indeed need a lot of CPU for moving subtitle, and they also don't support HTML5 well because, why you need to change when the current technology are working well. ::)
(Only they provide HTML5 and App when it is iOS, and only App when it is Android. ;D)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Niconico
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bilibili

And ya, they also using it for Forum Avatar Upload, Notification(Baidu Tieba), Ads and other thing like raining/snowing effect on the website.
I guess this will not changed easily, because it is much harder for them to waste more money to develop on HTML5. :P
