| Detailed Description |
The version of Adobe Flash Player installed on the remote Windows host is equal or prior to version 18.0.0.203. It is, therefore, affected by multiple remote code execution vulnerabilities :
- A use-after-free error exists in the opaqueBackground class in the ActionScript 3 (AS3) implementation. A remote attacker, via specially crafted Flash content, can dereference already freed memory, resulting in the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE- 015-5122)
- A use-after-free error exists in the BitmapData class in the ActionScript 3 (AS3) implementation. A remote attacker, via specially crafted Flash content, can dereference already freed memory, resulting in the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-5123)
* Note: This check requires an account with administrative privileges which can log into the host to scan. Absence of this condition will result in the check not being performed and a False Negative for all vulnerable hosts.
