New! Vulnerability Priority Rating (VPR)
Tenable calculates a dynamic VPR for every vulnerability. VPR combines vulnerability information with threat intelligence and machine learning algorithms to predict which vulnerabilities are most likely to be exploited in attacks. Read more about what VPR is and how it's different from CVSS.

Synopsis
The remote Mac OS X host has a browser plugin installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.
Description
The version of Adobe Flash Player installed on the remote Mac OS X host is prior or equal to version 20.0.0.286. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :
- A type confusion error exists that allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-0985)
- Multiple use-after-free errors exist that allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-0973, CVE-2016-0974, CVE-2016-0975, CVE-2016-0982, CVE-2016-0983, CVE-2016-0984)
- A heap buffer overflow condition exist that allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-0971)
- Multiple memory corruption issues exist that allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code.
