Descriptions

Adobe Flash Player before 18.0.0.324 and 19.x and 20.x before 20.0.0.267 on Windows and OS X and before 11.2.202.559 on Linux, Adobe AIR before 20.0.0.233, Adobe AIR SDK before 20.0.0.233, and Adobe AIR SDK & Compiler before 20.0.0.233 allow attackers to execute arbitrary code by leveraging an unspecified "type confusion."

Adobe Flash Player en versiones anteriores a 18.0.0.324 y 19.x y 20.x en versiones anteriores a 20.0.0.267 en Windows y OS X y en versiones anteriores a 11.2.202.559 en Linux, Adobe AIR en versiones anteriores a 20.0.0.233, Adobe AIR SDK en versiones anteriores a 20.0.0.233 y Adobe AIR SDK & Compiler en versiones anteriores a 20.0.0.233 permite a atacantes ejecutar código arbitrario aprovechándose de una "confusión de tipo" no especificada.

There is a type confusion vulnerability in the SimpleButton constructor. Flash stores an empty button to use to create buttons for optimization reasons. If this object is created using a SWF tag before it is created in the Button class, and it not of type Button, type confusion can occur.
