AI Insight

LLM-synthesized narrative grounded in this CVE's description and references.

Use-after-free in Adobe Flash Player before 18.0.0.203 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors.

Vulnerability

A use-after-free vulnerability exists in Adobe Flash Player before versions 13.0.0.302, 18.0.0.203 on Windows and OS X, and before 11.2.202.481 on Linux, as well as in Adobe AIR before 18.0.0.180. The flaw is triggered via unspecified vectors, allowing memory corruption. [1][2]

Exploitation

An attacker can exploit this vulnerability by convincing a user to open a specially crafted Flash file, typically delivered via a web page or email attachment. No authentication is required, and the attack can be performed remotely. The exact exploitation steps are not detailed in the available references. [1][2]

Impact

Successful exploitation allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the affected process, potentially leading to full system compromise. This can result in information disclosure, denial of service, or security restriction bypass. [2]

Mitigation

Adobe released fixed versions: Flash Player 13.0.0.302, 18.0.0.203, and 11.2.202.481; AIR 18.0.0.180. Red Hat and Gentoo advisories recommend updating to these versions. No workaround is available. [1][2]
