Anyone can tell if this flaw also affects
computers behind a firewall / proxy combination ?

In other words, is this update critical enough to update
your computer park no matter what your configuration is ?
 
It would appear that a firewall/proxy would not protect a
system from this vulnerability as the user (via the
browser) is being tricked into executing code on a website
which issues instructions via the known exploit.

Security settings on the web browser itself could prevent
the exploit.

Lastly, as this is a cumlative update, it may be wise to
apply it as future updates may require it.
