The ActiveX control in Adobe Flash Player before 10.3.183.15 and 11.x before 11.1.102.62 on Windows allows attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via unspecified vectors.

flash-player was updated to the security update to 11.1.102.62.

It fixes lots of security issues, some already exploited in the wild.

These vulnerabilities could cause a crash and potentially allow an attacker to take control of the affected system. This update also resolves a universal cross-site scripting vulnerability that could be used to take actions on a user's behalf on any website or webmail provider, if the user visits a malicious website. There are reports that this vulnerability (CVE-2012-0767) is being exploited in the wild in active targeted attacks designed to trick the user into clicking on a malicious link delivered in an email message (Internet Explorer on Windows only).

- Update to 11.1.102.62: (bnc#747297)     https://www.adobe.com/support/security/bulletins/apsb12-     03.html CVEs fixed: CVE-2012-0751, CVE-2012-0752,     CVE-2012-0753, CVE-2012-0754, CVE-2012-0755,     CVE-2012-0756, CVE-2012-0767

The remote host has Adobe Flash Player installed. 

Versions of Flash Player 10.x equal to or earlier than 10.3.183.14 or 11.x equal to or ealier than 11.1.102.55 are potentially affected by several vulnerabilities : 

  - Multiple unspecified memory corruption issues exist that could lead to code execution. (CVE-2012-0751, CVE-2012-0754)

  - An unspecified type confusion memory corruption vulnerability exists that could lead to code execution.(CVE-2012-0752)

  - An MP4 parsing memory corruption issue exists that could lead to code execution. (CVE-2012-0753)

  - Multiple unspecified security bypass vulnerabilities exist that could lead to code execution. (CVE-2012-0755, CVE-2012-0756)

  - A universal cross-site scripting issue exists that could be used to take actions on a user's behalf on any website or webmail provider. (CVE-2012-0767)

The version of Adobe Reader installed on the remote Mac OS X host is prior to 10.1.3 or 9.5.1. It is, therefore, affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - An integer overflow condition exists that allows an     attacker to execute arbitrary code via a crafted True     Type Font (TFF). (CVE-2012-0774)

  - A memory corruption issue exists in JavaScript handling     that allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code.
    (CVE-2012-0775)

  - A security bypass vulnerability exists in the Adobe     Reader installer that allows an attacker to execute     arbitrary code. (CVE-2012-0776)

  - A memory corruption issue exists in the JavaScript API     that allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code or     cause a denial of service. (CVE-2012-0777)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

These vulnerabilities could cause a crash and potentially allow an attacker to take control of the affected system.

According to its version, the instance of Flash Player installed on the remote Windows host is 10.x equal to or earlier than 10.3.183.14 or 11.x equal to or earlier than 11.1.102.55.  It is, therefore, reportedly affected by several critical vulnerabilities :

  - Multiple unspecified memory corruption issues exist that     could lead to code execution. (CVE-2012-0751,     CVE-2012-0754)

  - An unspecified type confusion memory corruption     vulnerability exists that could lead to code execution.
    (CVE-2012-0752)

  - An MP4 parsing memory corruption issue exists that     could lead to code execution. (CVE-2012-0753)

  - Multiple unspecified security bypass vulnerabilities     exist that could lead to code execution. (CVE-2012-0755,     CVE-2012-0756)

  - A universal cross-site scripting issue exists that could     be used to take actions on a user's behalf on any     website or webmail provider. (CVE-2012-0767)
