Adobe Air Bundles Vulnerable Flash

Secunia Personal Software Inspector reported a vulnerable version of Adobe Flash on my home computer.

It detected C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe AIR\Versions\1.0\NPSWF32.dll as version 9.0.124. Security bulletin APSB08-20 reports this is a vulnerable version.

I installed Adobe Reader 9 last week. I guess I forgot to get the AIR free version from ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/9.x/9.0/enu/AdbeRdr90_en_US_Std.exe. AIR it seems has an old version of Flash, I'm not quite sure how to upgrade that. Since I didn't want AIR in the first place I'm uninstalling it.

Adobe has now updated AIR
