The following flaw was found in Adobe Flash Player:

These updates resolve use-after-free vulnerabilities that could lead to code execution (CVE-2015-0313)

Comment 1 Tobias Burnus 2015-02-05 05:56:29 EST

The updated external reference contains:

February 2, 2015 - removed Flash Player version 11.x from the list of affected versions.  Version 11.x and earlier do not support the functionality affected by CVE-2015-0313.

On the other hand, Adobe Flash Player 11.2.202.442 is available on the FTP server and some of Adobe's webpages link to it. The main pages do link to 11.2.202.440.

Comment 2 Martin Prpič 2015-02-06 04:12:38 EST

This flaw has been previously included in the APSA15-02 advisory:

https://helpx.adobe.com/security/products/flash-player/apsa15-02.html

where, as stated in comment #1, it is listed as not affecting the 11.x version of flash. The subsequent advisory:

https://helpx.adobe.com/security/products/flash-player/apsb15-04.html

does not make it clear whether this issue affects the Linux version or not. Considering the update comment from Feb 2 in APSA15-02, closing this as not affected.

> Resolution: --- → NOTABUG

That's correct for CVE-2015-0313, but the ...442 update did solve security issues, see:  http://helpx.adobe.com/security/products/flash-player/apsb15-04.html
