Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the SUSE security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 5 / 6 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2016:0438 advisory.

    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, detailed in the Adobe Security Bulletin APSB16-08 listed     in the References section, could allow an attacker to create a specially     crafted SWF file that would cause flash-plugin to crash, execute arbitrary     code, or disclose sensitive information when the victim loaded a page     containing the malicious SWF content. (CVE-2016-0960, CVE-2016-0961,     CVE-2016-0962, CVE-2016-0963, CVE-2016-0986, CVE-2016-0987, CVE-2016-0988,     CVE-2016-0989, CVE-2016-0990, CVE-2016-0991, CVE-2016-0992, CVE-2016-0993,     CVE-2016-0994, CVE-2016-0995, CVE-2016-0996, CVE-2016-0997, CVE-2016-0998,     CVE-2016-0999, CVE-2016-1000, CVE-2016-1001, CVE-2016-1002, CVE-2016-1005,     CVE-2016-1010)

    All users of Adobe Flash Player should install this updated package, which     upgrades Flash Player to version 11.2.202.577.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Red Hat Enterprise Linux security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

This update to Adobe Flash Player 11.2.202.577 fixes a number of vulnerabilities that could have allowed remote attackers to execute arbitrary code through crafted content. (boo#970547)
