<ul>
|
|
<li>Flash contains a copy of PCRE which is vulnerable to a heap-based
|
|
buffer overflow (GLSA 200711-30, CVE-2007-4768).</li>
|
|
<li>Aaron Portnoy reported an unspecified vulnerability related to
|
|
input validation (CVE-2007-6242).</li>
|
|
<li>Jesse Michael and Thomas Biege reported that Flash does not
|
|
correctly set memory permissions (CVE-2007-6246).</li>
|
|
<li>Dan Boneh, Adam Barth, Andrew Bortz, Collin Jackson, and Weidong
|
|
Shao reported that Flash does not pin DNS hostnames to a single IP
|
|
addresses, allowing for DNS rebinding attacks (CVE-2007-5275).</li>
|
|
<li>David Neu reported an error withing the implementation of the
|
|
Socket and XMLSocket ActionScript 3 classes (CVE-2007-4324).</li>
|
|
<li>Toshiharu Sugiyama reported that Flash does not sufficiently
|
|
restrict the interpretation and usage of cross-domain policy files,
|
|
allowing for easier cross-site scripting attacks (CVE-2007-6243).</li>
|
|
<li>Rich Cannings reported a cross-site scripting vulnerability in the
|
|
way the "asfunction:" protocol was handled (CVE-2007-6244).</li>
|
|
<li>Toshiharu Sugiyama discovered that Flash allows remote attackers to
|
|
modify HTTP headers for client requests and conduct HTTP Request
|
|
Splitting attacks (CVE-2007-6245).</li>
|
|
</ul>

<impact type="normal">
|
|
<p>
|
|
A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted file
|
|
(usually in a web browser), possibly leading to the execution of
|
|
arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the Adobe Flash
|
|
Player. The attacker could also cause a user's machine to establish TCP
|
|
sessions with arbitrary hosts, bypass the Security Sandbox Model,
|
|
obtain sensitive information, port scan arbitrary hosts, or conduct
|
|
cross-site-scripting attacks.
|
|

</impact>
|
|
<workaround>
|
|
<p>
|
|
There is no known workaround at this time.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</workaround>
|
|
<resolution>
|
|
<p>
|
|
All Adobe Flash Player users should upgrade to the latest version:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
# emerge --sync
|
|
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=www-plugins/adobe-flash-9.0.115.0"</code>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Please be advised that unaffected packages of the Adobe Flash Player
|
|
have known problems when used from within the Konqueror and Opera
|
|
browsers.
