Adobe Flash Player and AIR before specified versions allow remote attackers to bypass the Same Origin Policy and obtain sensitive information.
Vulnerability
CVE-2011-2139 is an information disclosure vulnerability in Adobe Flash Player and Adobe AIR that allows a remote attacker to bypass the Same Origin Policy (SOP). Affected versions include Flash Player before 10.3.183.5 on Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, and Solaris, and before 10.3.186.3 on Android; and Adobe AIR before 2.7.1 on Windows and Mac OS X, and before 2.7.1.1961 on Android [1][2]. The issue is triggered via unspecified vectors, likely involving crafted content that violates cross-domain restrictions.
Exploitation
To exploit this vulnerability, an attacker must convince a victim to visit a malicious webpage or view a crafted Flash (SWF) file. No authentication or special network position is required beyond standard web access. The attacker creates content that performs cross-origin requests in a way that leaks data due to the broken SOP enforcement [2].
Impact
Successful exploitation allows the attacker to bypass the Same Origin Policy, leading to unauthorized disclosure of sensitive information from other origins (e.g., cookies, page content, or other data protected by the SOP). The attacker obtains information at the privilege level of the victim's browser session, without direct code execution [2].
Mitigation
Adobe released updates for Flash Player (version 10.3.183.5 on desktop platforms, 10.3.186.3 on Android) and AIR (2.7.1 on desktop, 2.7.1.1961 on Android) to address this vulnerability [1][2]. Users should update their software immediately. No workaround is disclosed in the available references.
