Descriptions

Adobe Flash Player versions 25.0.0.171 and earlier have an exploitable use after free vulnerability during internal computation caused by multiple display object mask manipulations. Successful exploitation could lead to arbitrary code execution.

Las versiones de Adobe Flash Player 25.0.0.171 y anteriores podrían permitir la explotación de una vulnerabilidad de uso después de liberación cuando se realiza computación interna causada por múltiples manipulaciones de máscaras de objetos. Una explotación exitosa podría conducir a la ejecución de código arbitrario.

The flash-plugin package contains a Mozilla Firefox compatible Adobe Flash Player web browser plug-in. This update upgrades Flash Player to version 26.0.0.126. Security Fix: 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.
