Description Adam Mariš 2016-04-06 03:00:15 EDT

A critical vulnerability (CVE-2016-1019) exists in Adobe Flash Player 21.0.0.197 and earlier versions for Windows, Macintosh, Linux, and Chrome OS. Successful exploitation could cause a crash and potentially allow an attacker to take control of the affected system.

Comment 1 Tomas Hoger 2016-04-08 02:27:58 EDT

Updates for Adobe Flash Player were released, further details are in the APSB16-10 bulletin.

Adobe Security Bulletin APSB16-10 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 APSB16-10:

These updates harden a mitigation against JIT spraying attacks that could be used to bypass memory layout randomization mitigations (CVE-2016-1006).

These updates resolve type confusion vulnerabilities that could lead to code execution (CVE-2016-1015, CVE-2016-1019).

These updates resolve use-after-free vulnerabilities that could lead to code execution (CVE-2016-1011, CVE-2016-1013, CVE-2016-1016, CVE-2016-1017, CVE-2016-1031).

These updates resolve memory corruption vulnerabilities that could lead to code execution (CVE-2016-1012, CVE-2016-1020, CVE-2016-1021, CVE-2016-1022, CVE-2016-1023, CVE-2016-1024, CVE-2016-1025, CVE-2016-1026, CVE-2016-1027, CVE-2016-1028, CVE-2016-1029, CVE-2016-1032, CVE-2016-1033).

These updates resolve a stack overflow vulnerability that could lead to code execution (CVE-2016-1018).

These updates resolve a security bypass vulnerability (CVE-2016-1030).

These updates resolve a vulnerability in the directory search path used to find resources that could lead to code execution (CVE-2016-1014).
