mickey,
that link is not "old news", but it is a little stale as the possibility
of happening has been know.

your link shows that someone finally applied it.

earlier report on 'hacking team' attack;

  http://www.cnet.com/news/adobe-tackles-hacking-team-zero-day-vulnerability/

"NIST" released an 'NVD' reported on it;

  https://web.nvd.nist.gov/view/vuln/detail?vulnId=CVE-2014-9163

mozilla was aware;

  https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1109795

the mozilla fix is a warning notice window that pops up allowing user to
allow or deny allowing flash to run.
