Adobe Flash Player anterior a 13.0.0.252 y 14.x y 15.x anterior a 15.0.0.223 en Windows y OS X y anterior a 11.2.202.418 en Linux, Adobe AIR anterior a 15.0.0.356, Adobe AIR SDK anterior a 15.0.0.356, y Adobe AIR SDK & Compiler anterior a 15.0.0.356 permiten a atacantes ejecutar código arbitrario mediante el aprovechamiento de una 'confusión de tipo' no especificada, una vulnerabilidad diferente a CVE-2014-0577, CVE-2014-0584, CVE-2014-0585, y CVE-2014-0590.

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. Multiple 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.
