Synopsis

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

Description

The version of Adobe AIR installed on the remote Windows host is equal or prior to version 18.0.0.199. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

- An unspecified stack corruption issue exists that allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code.
(CVE-2015-5567, CVE-2015-5579)

- A vector length corruption issue exists that allows a remote attacker to have an unspecified impact.
(CVE-2015-5568)

- A use-after-free error exists in an unspecified component due to improperly sanitized user-supplied input. A remote attacker can exploit this, via a specially crafted file, to deference already freed memory and execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-5570, CVE-2015-5574, CVE-2015-5581, CVE-2015-5584, CVE-2015-6682)

- An unspecified flaw exists due to a failure to reject content from vulnerable JSONP callback APIs. A remote attacker can exploit this to have an unspecified impact.
(CVE-2015-5571)

- An unspecified flaw exists that allows a remote attacker to bypass security restrictions and gain access to sensitive information. (CVE-2015-5572)

- An unspecified type confusion flaw exists that allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code.
(CVE-2015-5573)

- A flaw exists in an unspecified component due to improper validation of user-supplied input when handling a specially crafted file. A remote attacker can exploit this to corrupt memory, resulting in a denial of service or the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-5575, CVE-2015-5577, CVE-2015-5578, CVE-2015-5580, CVE-2015-5582, CVE-2015-5588, CVE-2015-6677)

- A memory leak issue exists that allows a remote attacker to have an unspecified impact. (CVE-2015-5576)

- A stack buffer overflow condition exists due to improper validation of user-supplied input. A remote attacker can exploit this to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-5587)

- An unspecified overflow condition exists due to improper validation of user-supplied input. A remote attacker can exploit this to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-6676, CVE-2015-6678)

- An unspecified flaw exists that allows a remote attacker to bypass same-origin policy restrictions and gain access to sensitive information. (CVE-2015-6679)
