Adobe Flash Player before 10.3.183.5 on Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, and Solaris and before 10.3.186.3 on Android, and Adobe AIR before 2.7.1 on Windows and Mac OS X and before 2.7.1.1961 on Android, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via a crafted SWF file, as demonstrated by "about 400 unique crash signatures."

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201201-19 (Adobe Reader: Multiple vulnerabilities)

    Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Adobe Reader. Please       review the CVE identifiers referenced below for details.
  Impact :

    A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted PDF       file using Adobe Reader, possibly resulting in the remote execution of       arbitrary code, a Denial of Service, or other impact.
  Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201110-11 (Adobe Flash Player: Multiple vulnerabilities)

    Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Adobe Flash Player.
      Please review the CVE identifiers and Adobe Security Advisories and       Bulletins referenced below for details.
  Impact :

    By enticing a user to open a specially crafted SWF file a remote       attacker could cause a Denial of Service or the execution of arbitrary       code with the privileges of the user running the application.
  Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.

  - A cross-site information disclosure vulnerability     exists that could lead to code execution.     (CVE-2011-2139)

By tricking a user on the affected system into opening a specially crafted document with Flash content, an attacker could leverage these vulnerabilities to execute arbitrary code remotely on the system subject to the user's privileges.
