Adobe Flash Player <= 17.0.0.169 Multiple Vulnerabilities (APSB15-09)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 83365

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Windows host has a browser plugin installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The version of Adobe Flash Player installed on the remote Windows host is equal or prior to version 17.0.0.169. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

 - An unspecified security bypass vulnerability exists that allows an attacker to disclose sensitive information.
 (CVE-2015-3044)

 - Multiple unspecified type confusion flaws exist that allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code.
 (CVE-2015-3077, CVE-2015-3084, CVE-2015-3086)

 - Multiple memory corruption flaws exist due to improper validation of user-supplied input. A remote attacker can exploit these flaws, via specially crafted flash content, to corrupt memory and execute arbitrary code.
 (CVE-2015-3078, CVE-2015-3089, CVE-2015-3090, CVE-2015-3093)

 - An unspecified security bypass exists that allows a context-dependent attacker to disclose sensitive information. (CVE-2015-3079)

 - An unspecified use-after-free error exists that allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-3080)

 - An unspecified time-of-check time-of-use (TOCTOU) race condition exists that allows an attacker to bypass Protected Mode for Internet Explorer. (CVE-2015-3081)

 - Multiple validation bypass vulnerabilities exist that allow an attacker to read and write arbitrary data to the file system. (CVE-2015-3082, CVE-2015-3083, CVE-2015-3085)

 - An integer overflow condition exists due to improper validation of user-supplied input. This allows a context-dependent attacker to execute arbitrary code.
 (CVE-2015-3087)

 - A heap-based buffer overflow exists due to improper validation of user-supplied input. A remote attacker can exploit this to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-3088)

 - Multiple unspecified memory leaks exist that allow an attacker to bypass the Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR) feature. (CVE-2015-3091, CVE-2015-3092)

Solution

Upgrade to Adobe Flash Player version 17.0.0.188 or later.

Alternatively, Adobe has made version 13.0.0.289 available for those installations that cannot be upgraded to 17.x.
