Descriptions

Integer overflow in Adobe Flash Player before 18.0.0.232 on Windows and OS X and before 11.2.202.508 on Linux, Adobe AIR before 18.0.0.199, Adobe AIR SDK before 18.0.0.199, and Adobe AIR SDK & Compiler before 18.0.0.199 allows attackers to execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors.

Vulnearbilidad de desbordamiento de enteros en Adobe Flash Player en versiones anteriores a 18.0.0.232 en Windows y OS X y versiones anteriores a 11.2.202.508 en Linux, en Adobe AIR en versiones anteriores a 18.0.0.199, Adobe AIR SDK en versiones anteriores a 18.0.0.199 y Adobe AIR SDK & Compiler en versiones anteriores a 18.0.0.199, permite a atacantes ejecutar código arbitrario a través de vectores no especificados.

If an mp3 file contains compressed ID3 data that is larger than 0x2aaaaaaa bytes, an integer overflow will occur in allocating the buffer to contain its converted string data, leading to a large copy into a small buffer. A sample fla, swf and mp3 are attached. Put id34.swf and tag.mp3 in the same folder to reproduce the issue. This issue only works on 64 bit platforms.
