SB2017031403 - Microsoft Security Update for Adobe Flash Player

Description

This security bulletin contains information about 7 vulnerabilities.

1) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-2997)

CWE-ID: CWE-119 - Memory corruption

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Amber

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to boundary error when processing .swf files in Adobe Flash Player. A remote unauthenticated attacker can create a specially crafted .swf file, trick the victim into opening i, trigger buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.

2) Memory corruption (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-2998)

CWE-ID: CWE-119 - Memory corruption

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to boundary error when processing .swf files in Adobe Flash Player. A remote unauthenticated attacker can create a specially crafted .swf file, trick the victim into opening i, trigger buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.

3) Memory corruption (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-2999)

CWE-ID: CWE-119 - Memory corruption

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Amber

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to boundary error when processing .swf files in Adobe Flash Player. A remote unauthenticated attacker can create a specially crafted .swf file, trick the victim into opening i, trigger buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.

4) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-3000)

CWE-ID: CWE-200 - Exposure of sensitive information to an unauthorized actor

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:P/U:Clear

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to obtain potentially sensitive data.

The vulnerability exists due to boundary error in random number generator used for constant blinding in Adobe Flash Player. A remote unauthenticated attacker can create a specially crafted .swf file, trick the victim into opening i, trigger buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in disclosure of potentially sensitive data.

5) Use-after-free error (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-3001)

CWE-ID: CWE-416 - Use After Free

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Amber

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error when processing .swf files in Adobe Flash Player. A remote unauthenticated attacker can create a specially crafted .swf file, trick the victim into opening i, trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.

6) Use-after-free error (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-3002)

CWE-ID: CWE-416 - Use After Free

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Amber

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error when processing .swf files in Adobe Flash Player. A remote unauthenticated attacker can create a specially crafted .swf file, trick the victim into opening i, trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.

7) Use-after-free error (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-3003)

CWE-ID: CWE-416 - Use After Free
