The email from MM said:
....Recently, Macromedia became aware of potential security
issues with Macromedia Flash Player. A new version of
Macromedia Flash Player fixes these issues to protect
our users from any content that attempts to execute
this type of malicious code.

The cumulative security patch is available today and
addresses the potential for future exploits surrounding
buffer overflows (read/write) and sandbox integrity within
the player which might allow malicious users to gain access
to a users computer...

...SEVERITIY RATING

Macromedia categorizes this issue as a critical update and
recommends users immediately update to the newest player...

I think the problem lies with the sandbox - ie. it does not work.
