Versions of Adobe Flash Player equal or prior to 12.0.0.43 are outdated and thus unpatched for a remote code execution vulnerability, though no further details have been released by the vendor (CVE-2014-0491).

Exploits against this vulnerability are known to be used in the wild.

The remote host has Google Chrome browser installed. The previous version of Google Chrome (that is, prior to 32.0.1700.107) contain a plugin for Flash Player 12.0.0.41, which is vulnerable to remote code execution. Chrome 32.0.1700.107 has been released with an updated version of Flash, which patches this vulnerability.

Versions of Flash earlier than 11.7.700.260 / 12.0.0.43 are vulnerable to remote code execution, though no further details have been released by the vendor. (CVE-2014-0491)

Exploits against this vulnerability are known to be used in the wild.

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201402-06 (Adobe Flash Player: Multiple vulnerabilities)
