If you use the flash player browser plugin, your system may be especially vulnerable to hackers. As such, it might be a good idea to disable the plugin for the time being.
Adobe will apparently release an update on the 8th of July - American Time. Basically, within 24 hours.
Samsung tablets don't have Flash pre-installed, do they?
I have a Tab 3, and just want to be sure (I know I've never downloaded Flash).
AFAIK, the exploit only works for PC OS's. Your tablet is likely safe, unless you're visiting shady websites. I haven't updated Flash EVER since I installed it on my Galaxy Tab 3, and I've never gotten anything more than a crash from using Flash. 99% of tablets nowadays don't come with Flash installed. I don't even remember the last time Flash was updated for Android.
