Adobe Finally Releases Flash Player 24 for GNU/Linux Systems, Download Now

Adobe updated Flash Player Linux for Chromium (PPAPI) and Flash Player Linux for Firefox (NPAPI) to version 24.0.0.186, the same one that’s also used on Microsoft Windows and Apple’s macOS operating systems, along with Flash Player Linux for Google Chrome and Flash Player for Google’s Linux-based ChromeOS. So, yes, we can now say that Adobe Flash Player is again at its latest version on GNU/Linux distributions, and it’s coming soon to a distro near you (at the moment of writing this article it’s already in the Arch Linux stable repositories). But should you install it considering it has always been a security risk?
