For anyone who hasn't seen it (or has assumed it only affects Windows):

Adobe say the issue does affect Linux, but their solution (upgrade to Raeder 
v8) isn't available for Linux.  They say there will be a new 7.0.9 out later 
this week which will close the hole. 

In the meantime, their advice is not to use the browser plugin.
