Adobe Flash Player before 18.0.0.252 and 19.x before 19.0.0.207 on Windows and OS X and before 11.2.202.535 on Linux, Adobe AIR before 19.0.0.213, Adobe AIR SDK before 19.0.0.213, and Adobe AIR SDK & Compiler before 19.0.0.213 improperly implement the Flash broker API, which has unspecified impact and attack vectors.

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201511-02 (Adobe Flash Player: Multiple vulnerabilities)

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

    A remote attacker could possibly execute arbitrary code with the       privileges of the process, cause a Denial of Service condition, obtain       sensitive information, or bypass security restrictions.
  Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 5 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2015:2024 advisory.

    The flash-plugin package contains a Mozilla Firefox compatible Adobe Flash     Player web browser plug-in.

    This update fixes multiple vulnerabilities in Adobe Flash Player. These     vulnerabilities, detailed in the Adobe Security Bulletins APSB15-25,     APSB15-27, and APSB15-28 listed in the References section, could allow an     attacker to create a specially crafted SWF file that would cause     flash-plugin to crash, execute arbitrary code, or disclose sensitive     information when the victim loaded a page containing the malicious SWF     content. (CVE-2015-5569, CVE-2015-7625, CVE-2015-7626, CVE-2015-7627,     CVE-2015-7628, CVE-2015-7629, CVE-2015-7630, CVE-2015-7631, CVE-2015-7632,     CVE-2015-7633, CVE-2015-7634, CVE-2015-7635, CVE-2015-7636, CVE-2015-7637,     CVE-2015-7638, CVE-2015-7639, CVE-2015-7640, CVE-2015-7641, CVE-2015-7642,     CVE-2015-7643, CVE-2015-7644, CVE-2015-7645, CVE-2015-7647, CVE-2015-7648,     CVE-2015-7651, CVE-2015-7652, CVE-2015-7653, CVE-2015-7654, CVE-2015-7655,     CVE-2015-7656, CVE-2015-7657, CVE-2015-7658, CVE-2015-7659, CVE-2015-7660,     CVE-2015-7661, CVE-2015-7662, CVE-2015-7663, CVE-2015-8042, CVE-2015-8043,     CVE-2015-8044, CVE-2015-8046)

    All users of Adobe Flash Player should install this updated package, which     upgrades Flash Player to version 11.2.202.548.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Red Hat Enterprise Linux security advisory.

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

Versions of Adobe Flash Player prior to 19.0.0.207 are outdated and thus unpatched for the following vulnerabilities :

 - An unspecified vulnerability exists related to the defense-in-depth feature in the Flash Broker API. No other details are available. (CVE-2015-5569)
 - Multiple unspecified memory corruption issues exist due to improper validation of user-supplied input. A remote attacker can exploit this to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-7625, CVE-2015-7626, CVE-2015-7627, CVE-2015-7630, CVE-2015-7633, CVE-2015-7634)
 - A unspecified vulnerability exists that can be exploited by a remote attacker to bypass the same-origin policy, allowing the disclosure of sensitive information. (CVE-2015-7628)
 - Multiple unspecified use-after-free errors exist that can be exploited by a remote attacker to dereference already freed memory, potentially allowing the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-7629, CVE-2015-7631, CVE-2015-7635, CVE-2015-7636, CVE-2015-7637, CVE-2015-7638, CVE-2015-7639, CVE-2015-7640, CVE-2015-7641, CVE-2015-7642, CVE-2015-7643, CVE-2015-7644)
