Ok, I'm only going off the extremely limited information in this article, but this attack phishes users, gets them on a malicious webpage and then uses Flash as a vector to exploit an MS Windows vuln, right?
If that's the case, haven't Chrome and Firefox been blocking Flash for over a year now[0]? Considering the MS Edge is apparently not vulnerable (according to the article), that doesn't leave much market share left. If all of the above is correct, I'd say the surface area of this attack is pretty low.
