Description Tomas Hoger 2015-07-08 16:03:51 UTC

Adobe Security Bulletin APSB15-16 for Adobe Flash Player describes multiple flaws that can possibly lead to code execution when Flash Player is used to play a specially crafted SWF file.

Quoting from the APSB15-16:

These updates resolve heap buffer overflow vulnerabilities that could lead to code execution (CVE-2015-3135, CVE-2015-4432, CVE-2015-5118).

These updates resolve memory corruption vulnerabilities that could lead to code execution (CVE-2015-3117, CVE-2015-3123, CVE-2015-3130, CVE-2015-3133, CVE-2015-3134, CVE-2015-4431).

These updates resolve type confusion vulnerabilities that could lead to code execution (CVE-2015-3119, CVE-2015-3120, CVE-2015-3121, CVE-2015-3122, CVE-2015-4433).

These updates resolve use-after-free vulnerabilities that could lead to code execution (CVE-2015-3118, CVE-2015-3124, CVE-2015-5117, CVE-2015-3127, CVE-2015-3128, CVE-2015-3129, CVE-2015-3131, CVE-2015-3132, CVE-2015-3136, CVE-2015-3137, CVE-2015-4428, CVE-2015-4430, CVE-2015-5119).

Note that CVE-2015-5119 is already tracked via a separate bug 1240832.

The Bulletin also describes the following issue:

These updates resolve null pointer dereference issues (CVE-2015-3126, CVE-2015-4429).

It does clarify if these are limited to crash as most NULL pointer dereference issues, or can have higher impact.
