Hang on, it's not the same exploit.  You are confusing two Flash vectors.

The zero day via Fireeye is CVE-2014-1776 http://www.fireeye.com/blog/uncategorized/2014/04/new-zero-day-exploit-targeting-internet-explorer-versions-9-through-11-identified-in-targeted-attacks.html

The Flash patch below is a totally different Flash patch and it's from Adobe. http://helpx.adobe.com/security/products/flash-player/apsb14-09.html It's just via Microsoft becasuse they stuck Flash in their browser and thus they update it. *CVE number:* CVE-2014-0506, CVE-2014-0507, CVE-2014-0508, CVE-2014-0509

Two totally different issues.

Microsoft will patch all supported browsers for the weekend zero day when it's ready.

The flash patch is just a Flash update.

Saw this on a forum today: ”We have one agency warning us of an exploit, and the other agency trying to use the exploit :)”

FTW!

It’s not. Adobe has been working on today’s patch since early April, working with Kaspersky. The one announced over the weekend as identified by FireEye and Microsoft is working on a patch.

Adobe’s patch addresses CVE-2014-0515

Microsoft’s address CVE-2014-1776

It’s possible they are linked, since this article does make them seem like the same attack vector, but I do not speek enough programmer-speak to know for sure:

I thought that is what I read in the MS articles?

VML and Flash were the vector for the exploit?

Yes, but that has nothing to do with the exploit reported over the weekend.

It’s all versions of Internet Explorer. However, supported versions will be patched.

There are ways to mitigate:

Is it just XP or am I wrong that the 7’s, 8’s, and Server OS’s also an issue the way I am reading it.

Especially if they have Adobe Flash (Not sure of version) and the website being visited using VML.

It's really bad if you're still running XP in your environment...
