The remote Windows host is missing security update KB4020821. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

  - A use-after-free error exists that allows an     unauthenticated, remote attacker to execute arbitrary     code. (CVE-2017-3071)

  - Multiple memory corruption issues exist that allow an     unauthenticated, remote attacker to execute arbitrary     code. (CVE-2017-3068, CVE-2017-3069, CVE-2017-3070,     CVE-2017-3072, CVE-2017-3073, CVE-2017-3074)

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 6 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2017:1219 advisory.

    The flash-plugin package contains a Mozilla Firefox compatible Adobe Flash Player web browser plug-in.

    This update upgrades Flash Player to version 25.0.0.171.

    Security Fix(es):

    * This update fixes multiple vulnerabilities in Adobe Flash Player. These vulnerabilities, detailed in the     Adobe Security Bulletin 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-2017-3068,     CVE-2017-3069, CVE-2017-3070, CVE-2017-3071, CVE-2017-3072, CVE-2017-3073, CVE-2017-3074)

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.

The version of Adobe Flash Player installed on the remote macOS or Mac OS X host is equal or prior to version 25.0.0.163. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

  - A use-after-free error exists that allows an     unauthenticated, remote attacker to execute arbitrary     code. (CVE-2017-3071)

  - Multiple memory corruption issues exist that allow an     unauthenticated, remote attacker to execute arbitrary     code. (CVE-2017-3068, CVE-2017-3069, CVE-2017-3070,     CVE-2017-3072, CVE-2017-3073, CVE-2017-3074)

The version of Adobe Flash Player installed on the remote Windows host is equal or prior to version 25.0.0.148. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

  - A use-after-free error exists that allows an     unauthenticated, remote attacker to execute arbitrary     code. (CVE-2017-3071)

  - Multiple memory corruption issues exist that allow an     unauthenticated, remote attacker to execute arbitrary     code. (CVE-2017-3068, CVE-2017-3069, CVE-2017-3070,     CVE-2017-3072, CVE-2017-3073, CVE-2017-3074)

  - Security update to 25.0.0.171 (bsc#1038281), fixing the     following vulnerabilities advised under APSB17-15 :

  - Use-after-free vulnerability that could lead to code     execution (CVE-2017-3071).

  - Memory corruption vulnerabilities that could lead to     code execution (CVE-2017-3068, CVE-2017-3069,     CVE-2017-3070, CVE-2017-3072, CVE-2017-3073,     CVE-2017-3074).

Versions of Adobe Flash Player prior to 25.0.0.171 are unpatched, and therefore affected by the following RCE vulnerabilities :

 - A use-after-free error exists that allows an unauthenticated, remote attacker to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2017-3071)
 - Multiple memory corruption issues exist that allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2017-3068, CVE-2017-3069, CVE-2017-3070, CVE-2017-3072, CVE-2017-3073, CVE-2017-3074)
