Buffer overflow in Adobe Flash Player before 11.7.700.275 and 11.8.x through 13.0.x before 13.0.0.182 on Windows and OS X and before 11.2.202.350 on Linux, Adobe AIR before 13.0.0.83 on Android, Adobe AIR SDK before 13.0.0.83, and Adobe AIR SDK & Compiler before 13.0.0.83 allows attackers to execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors.

Versions of Adobe AIR prior to 13.0.0.83 are unpatched for the following vulnerabilities :

 - A use-after-free error exists that could lead to arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2014-0506)
 - A buffer overflow error exists that could lead to arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2014-0507)
 - An unspecified error exists that could allow a security bypass leading to information disclosure. (CVE-2014-0508)
 - An unspecified error exists that could allow cross-site scripting attacks. (CVE-2014-0509)

Versions of Adobe Flash player prior to 11.7.700.275 / 13.0.0.182 are outdated and thus unpatched for the following vulnerabilities :

  - A use-after-free error affects the handling of ExternalInterface. With a specially crafted flash object, a context-dependent attacker can dereference already freed memory and potentially execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2014-0506)
  - An overflow condition exists which is triggered as user-supplied input is not properly validated when handling ActionScript regular expressions. This may allow a context-dependent attacker to cause a stack-based buffer overflow, resulting in a denial of service or potentially allowing the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2014-0507)
  - An unspecified flaw that may allow a context-dependent attacker to bypass security restrictions and gain access to potentially sensitive information. (CVE-2014-0508)
  - A flaw exists that allows a cross-site scripting (XSS) attack. This flaw exists because the applications do not validate input passed to the 'ExternalInterface.call()' function before returning it to users. This may allow a context-dependent attacker to create a specially crafted request that would execute arbitrary script code in a user's browser session within the trust relationship between their browser and the server. (CVE-2014-0509)

This flash-player update fixes several security issues :

  - bnc#872692: Security update to 11.2.202.350 :

  - APSB14-09, CVE-2014-0506, CVE-2014-0507, CVE-2014-0508,     CVE-2014-0509

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201405-04 (Adobe Flash Player: Multiple vulnerabilities)

    Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Adobe Flash Player.
      Please review the CVE identifiers referenced below for details.
  Impact :

    A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted SWF       file using Adobe Flash Player, possibly resulting in execution of       arbitrary code with the privileges of the process or a Denial of Service       condition. Furthermore, a remote attacker may be able to bypass the Same       Origin Policy or read the clipboard via unspecified vectors.
  Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.

Adobe flash-player has been updated to version 11.2.202.350 to resolve security issues and bugs. More information can be found at

http://helpx.adobe.com/security/products/flash-player/apsb14-09.html

The following security issues have been fixed :

  - a use-after-free vulnerability that could have resulted     in arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2014-0506)

  - a buffer overflow vulnerability that could have resulted     in arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2014-0507)

  - a security bypass vulnerability that could have lead to     information disclosure. (CVE-2014-0508)

  - a cross-site scripting vulnerability. (CVE-2014-0509)

An updated Adobe Flash Player package that fixes multiple security issues is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 and 6 Supplementary.

The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having Critical security impact. Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base scores, which give detailed severity ratings, are available for each vulnerability from the CVE links in the References section.

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 APSB14-09, listed in the References section.

Two flaws were found in the way flash-plugin displayed certain SWF content. An attacker could use these flaws to create a specially crafted SWF file that would cause flash-plugin to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code when the victim loaded a page containing the malicious SWF content. (CVE-2014-0506, CVE-2014-0507)

A flaw in flash-plugin could allow an attacker to obtain sensitive information if a victim were tricked into visiting a specially crafted web page. (CVE-2014-0508)

A flaw in flash-plugin could allow an attacker to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks if a victim were tricked into visiting a specially crafted web page. (CVE-2014-0509)

All users of Adobe Flash Player should install this updated package, which upgrades Flash Player to version 11.2.202.350.
