COMPLETE Summary
An unspecified ActiveX control in Adobe Flash Player before 9.0.289.0 and 10.x before 10.1.102.64 (Flash10h.ocx) on Windows allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via a crafted FLV video.
Vulnerable Configurations
Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE)
Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification (CAPEC)
- Buffer Overflow via Environment Variables This attack pattern involves causing a buffer overflow through manipulation of environment variables. Once the attacker finds that they can modify an environment variable, they may try to overflow associated buffers. This attack leverages implicit trust often placed in environment variables.
- Overflow Buffers Buffer Overflow attacks target improper or missing bounds checking on buffer operations, typically triggered by input injected by an attacker. As a consequence, an attacker is able to write past the boundaries of allocated buffer regions in memory, causing a program crash or potentially redirection of execution as per the attackers' choice.
- Client-side Injection-induced Buffer Overflow This type of attack exploits a buffer overflow vulnerability in targeted client software through injection of malicious content from a custom-built hostile service.
- Filter Failure through Buffer Overflow In this attack, the idea is to cause an active filter to fail by causing an oversized transaction. An attacker may try to feed overly long input strings to the program in an attempt to overwhelm the filter (by causing a buffer overflow) and hoping that the filter does not fail securely (i.e. the user input is let into the system unfiltered).
- MIME Conversion An attacker exploits a weakness in the MIME conversion routine to cause a buffer overflow and gain control over the mail server machine. The MIME system is designed to allow various different information formats to be interpreted and sent via e-mail. Attack points exist when data are converted to MIME compatible format and back.

NASL family Red Hat Local Security Checks NASL id REDHAT-RHSA-2010-0829.NASL description An updated Adobe Flash Player package that fixes multiple security issues is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 Supplementary. The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having critical security impact. Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base scores, which give detailed severity ratings, are available for each vulnerability from the CVE links in the References section. The flash-plugin package contains a Mozilla Firefox compatible Adobe Flash Player web browser plug-in. This update fixes multiple vulnerabilities in Adobe Flash Player. These vulnerabilities are detailed on the Adobe security page APSB10-26, listed in the References section. Multiple security flaws were found in the way flash-plugin displayed certain SWF content. An attacker could use these flaws to create a specially crafted SWF file that would cause flash-plugin to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code when the victim loaded a page containing the specially crafted SWF content. (CVE-2010-3639, CVE-2010-3640, CVE-2010-3641, CVE-2010-3642, CVE-2010-3643, CVE-2010-3644, CVE-2010-3645, CVE-2010-3646, CVE-2010-3647, CVE-2010-3648, CVE-2010-3649, CVE-2010-3650, CVE-2010-3652, CVE-2010-3654) An input validation flaw was discovered in flash-plugin. Certain server encodings could lead to a bypass of cross-domain policy file restrictions, possibly leading to cross-domain information disclosure. (CVE-2010-3636) During testing, it was discovered that there were regressions with Flash Player on certain sites, such as fullscreen playback on YouTube. Despite these regressions, we feel these security flaws are serious enough to update the package with what Adobe has provided. All users of Adobe Flash Player should install this updated package, which upgrades Flash Player to version 10.1.102.64. last seen 2020-06-01 modified 2020-06-02 plugin id 63956 published 2013-01-24 reporter This script is Copyright (C) 2013-2019 and is owned by Tenable, Inc. or an Affiliate thereof. source https://www.tenable.com/plugins/nessus/63956 title RHEL 5 : flash-plugin (RHSA-2010:0829) NASL family Windows NASL id ADOBE_AIR_APSB10-26.NASL description The remote Windows host contains a version of Adobe AIR that is earlier than 2.5.1.
