Adobe AIR < 19.0.0.190 Multiple Vulnerabilities (APSB15-23)

critical Nessus Network Monitor Plugin ID 9003

Synopsis

The remote host is running an outdated version of Adobe AIR.

Description

Versions of Adobe AIR prior to 19.0.0.190 are outdated and thus unpatched for the following vulnerabilities :

- An unspecified stack corruption issue exists that allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-5567, CVE-2015-5579)
- A vector length corruption issue exists that allows a remote attacker to have an unspecified impact. (CVE-2015-5568)
- A use-after-free error exists in an unspecified component due to improperly sanitized user-supplied input. A remote attacker can exploit this, via a specially crafted file, to dereference already freed memory and execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-5570, CVE-2015-5574, CVE-2015-5581, CVE-2015-5584, CVE-2015-6682)
- An unspecified flaw exists due to a failure to reject content from vulnerable JSONP callback APIs. A remote attacker can exploit this to have an unspecified impact. (CVE-2015-5571)
- An unspecified flaw exists that allows a remote attacker to bypass security restrictions and gain access to sensitive information. (CVE-2015-5572)
- An unspecified type confusion flaw exists that allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-5573)
- A flaw exists in an unspecified component due to improper validation of user-supplied input when handling a specially crafted file. A remote attacker can exploit this to corrupt memory, resulting in a denial of service or the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-5575, CVE-2015-5577, CVE-2015-5578, CVE-2015-5580, CVE-2015-5582, CVE-2015-5588, CVE-2015-6677)
- A memory leak issue exists that allows a remote attacker to have an unspecified impact. (CVE-2015-5576)
- A stack buffer overflow condition exists due to improper validation of user-supplied input. A remote attacker can exploit this to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-5587)
- An unspecified overflow condition exists due to improper validation of user-supplied input. A remote attacker can exploit this to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-6676, CVE-2015-6678)
- An unspecified flaw exists that allows a remote attacker to bypass same-origin policy restrictions and gain access to sensitive information. (CVE-2015-6679)

Solution

Upgrade to Adobe AIR 19.0.0.190 or later.
