The Adobe Flash Player is a renderer for the popular SWF file format,
|
|
which is commonly used to provide interactive websites, digital
|
|
experiences and mobile content.

Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Adobe Flash:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>
|
|
Secunia Research and Zero Day Initiative reported a boundary error
|
|
related to DeclareFunction2 Actionscript tags in SWF files
|
|
(CVE-2007-6019).
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
The ISS X-Force and the Zero Day Initiative reported an unspecified
|
|
input validation error that might lead to a buffer overflow
|
|
(CVE-2007-0071).
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
Microsoft, UBsecure and JPCERT/CC reported that cross-domain policy
|
|
files are not checked before sending HTTP headers to another domain
|
|
(CVE-2008-1654) and that it does not sufficiently restrict the
|
|
interpretation and usage of cross-domain policy files (CVE-2007-6243).
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
The Stanford University and Ernst and Young's Advanced Security Center
|
|
reported that Flash does not pin DNS hostnames to a single IP
|
|
addresses, allowing for DNS rebinding attacks (CVE-2007-5275,
|
|
CVE-2008-1655).
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
The Google Security Team and Minded Security Multiple reported multiple
|
|
cross-site scripting vulnerabilities when passing input to Flash
|
|
functions (CVE-2007-6637).
|
|
</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 send HTTP
|
|
requests to other hosts, establish TCP sessions with arbitrary hosts,
|
|
bypass the security sandbox model, or conduct Cross-Site Scripting and
|
|
Cross-Site Request Forgery attacks.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</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-9.0.124.0"</code>
