Descriptions
Adobe Flash Player before 18.0.0.268 and 19.x and 20.x before 20.0.0.228 on Windows and OS X and before 11.2.202.554 on Linux, Adobe AIR before 20.0.0.204, Adobe AIR SDK before 20.0.0.204, and Adobe AIR SDK & Compiler before 20.0.0.204 allow attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (uninitialized pointer dereference and memory corruption) via crafted MPEG-4 data, a different vulnerability than CVE-2015-8045, CVE-2015-8047, CVE-2015-8060, CVE-2015-8408, CVE-2015-8416, CVE-2015-8417, CVE-2015-8418, CVE-2015-8419, CVE-2015-8443, CVE-2015-8444, CVE-2015-8451, CVE-2015-8455, CVE-2015-8652, CVE-2015-8654, CVE-2015-8656, CVE-2015-8657, and CVE-2015-8820.
Adobe Flash Player en versiones anteriores a 18.0.0.268 y 19.x y 20.x en versiones anteriores a 20.0.0.228 en Windows y OS X y en versiones anteriores a 11.2.202.554 en Linux, Adobe AIR en versiones anteriores a 20.0.0.204, Adobe AIR SDK en versiones anteriores a 20.0.0.204 y Adobe AIR SDK & Compiler en versiones anteriores a 20.0.0.204 permiten a atacantes ejecutar código arbitrario o provocar una denegación de servicio (referencia a puntero no inicializado y corrupción de memoria) a través de datos MPEG-4 manipulados, una vulnerabilidad diferente a CVE-2015-8045, CVE-2015-8047, CVE-2015-8060, CVE-2015-8408, CVE-2015-8416, CVE-2015-8417, CVE-2015-8418, CVE-2015-8419, CVE-2015-8443, CVE-2015-8444, CVE-2015-8451, CVE-2015-8455, CVE-2015-8652, CVE-2015-8654, CVE-2015-8656, CVE-2015-8657 y CVE-2015-8820.
This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Adobe Flash. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file.
The specific flaw exists within MPEG-4 parsing. A specially crafted MP4 file can force the dereference of an uninitialized pointer. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code under the context of the current process.
