Use-after-free vulnerability in Adobe Flash Player before 13.0.0.277 and 14.x through 17.x before 17.0.0.134 on Windows and OS X and before 11.2.202.451 on Linux allows attackers to execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors, a different vulnerability than CVE-2015-0341.

Versions of Adobe AIR prior to 17.0.0.144 are outdated and thus unpatched for the following vulnerabilities :

 - Multiple memory corruption flaws exist due to improper validation of user-supplied input. An attacker can exploit these flaws to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-0332, CVE-2015-0333, CVE-2015-0335, CVE-2015-0339)
 - Multiple type confusion flaws exist that allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-0334, CVE-2015-0336)
 - A unspecified flaw exists that allows an attacker to bypass cross-domain policy. (CVE-2015-0337)
 - An integer overflow condition exists due improper validation of user-supplied input. An attacker can exploit to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-0338)
 - A unspecified flaw exists that allows an attacker to bypass restrictions and upload arbitrary files. (CVE-2015-0340)
 - Multiple use-after-free errors exist that allow an attacker to dereference already freed memory and execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-0341, CVE-2015-0342)

According to its version, the installation of Adobe AIR on the remote Mac OS X host is equal or prior to 17.0.0.124. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

  - Multiple memory corruption flaws exist due to improper     validation of user-supplied input. An attacker can     exploit these flaws to execute arbitrary code.
    (CVE-2015-0332, CVE-2015-0333, CVE-2015-0335,     CVE-2015-0339)

  - A unspecified flaw exists that allows an attacker to     bypass cross-domain policy. (CVE-2015-0337)

  - An integer overflow condition exists due improper     validation of user-supplied input. An attacker can     exploit to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-0338)

  - A unspecified flaw exists that allows an attacker to     bypass restrictions and upload arbitrary files.
    (CVE-2015-0340)

  - Multiple use-after-free errors exist that allow an     attacker to deference already freed memory and execute     arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-0341, CVE-2015-0342)
