The flash-plugin package contains a Mozilla Firefox compatible Adobe Flash Player web browser plug-in.

This update fixes multiple vulnerabilities in Adobe Flash Player.
These vulnerabilities are detailed in the Adobe Security bulletin APSB13-28, listed in the References section. Specially crafted SWF content could cause flash-plugin to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code when a victim loads a page containing the malicious SWF content. (CVE-2013-5331, CVE-2013-5332)

All users of Adobe Flash Player should install this updated package, which upgrades Flash Player to version 11.2.202.332.

According to its version, the instance of Flash Player installed on the remote Mac OS X host is equal or prior to 11.7.700.252 / 11.8.x or 11.9.x equal or prior to 11.9.900.152.  It is, therefore, potentially affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - A type-confusion error exists that could allow     arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2013-5331)

  - An input validation error exists that could allow     denial of service attacks or possibly arbitrary code     execution. (CVE-2013-5332)

According to its version, the instance of Adobe AIR on the remote Mac OS X host is 3.9.0.1210 or earlier.  It is, therefore, reportedly affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - A type-confusion error exists that could allow     arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2013-5331)

  - An input validation error exists that could allow     denial of service attacks or possibly arbitrary code     execution. (CVE-2013-5332)

According to its version, the instance of Flash Player installed on the remote Windows host is equal or prior to 11.7.700.252 / 11.8.x or 11.9.x equal or prior to 11.9.900.152.  It is, therefore, potentially affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - A type-confusion error exists that could allow     arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2013-5331)

  - An input validation error exists that could allow     denial of service attacks or possibly arbitrary code     execution. (CVE-2013-5332)

According to its version, the instance of Adobe AIR on the remote Windows host is 3.9.0.1210 or earlier.  It is, therefore, potentially affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - A type-confusion error exists that could allow     arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2013-5331)

  - An input validation error exists that could allow     denial of service attacks or possibly arbitrary code     execution. (CVE-2013-5332)

The remote host is missing KB2907997.  It is, therefore, affected by the following vulnerabilities related to the installed version of the Adobe Flash ActiveX control :

  - An unspecified type confusion flaw exists that could     lead to code execution. (CVE-2013-5331)

  - An unspecified flaw exists that could lead to code     execution. (CVE-2013-5332)
