John Hupp, marking Triaged against Adobe given upstream discussion. Hence, the issue you are reporting is an upstream one. It would be nice if somebody having it could send the bug to the developers of the software via https://bugbase.adobe.com/?event=newBug :

Title:
8086:2562 Flash 11.2 content displays in shades of green and purple
only, and in a horizontally compressed space
Status in “flashplugin-nonfree” package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
In my testing with the Intel driver using its default acceleration, what works:
- Flash 11.2 works on Quantal with the 3.5 kernel
- Flash 11.2 works on Raring with the 3.5.0-17 kernel (though it boots to a low-res desktop with a frozen pointer)
- Flash 11.2 works on Raring also with the 3.6.11-030611 or 3.7.10-030710 mainline kernels
- Flash 11.2 works on Raring with the 3.8 kernel (in Chrome)
what fails:
- Flash 11.2 fails on Raring with the 3.8 kernel
- Flash 11.2 fails on Raring with the latest mainline kernel, 3.11.0-031100rc5
- Flash 11.2 fails on Saucy alpha 2 with its default kernel
Disabling Flash *hardware* acceleration altogether (via R-click in the
Flash display window: Settings: General tab) did not fix the problem.
WORKAROUND: Setting the Intel driver's acceleration method to UXA
rather than its default SNA *always* fixes the Flash problem, but
causes a garbled login screen under LightDM that so far has no
workaround.
WORKAROUND: Adding to your xorg.conf :
Section "Screen"
Identifier "igd"
DefaultDepth 24
EndSection
