Detailed Description |
The remote Windows host contains a version of Adobe's Shockwave Player that is earlier than 12.2.0.162. It is, therefore, affected by a memory corruption issue due to improper validation of user-supplied input. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to execute arbitrary code.
* 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.
