Security Bulletin
This security bulletin contains information about 7 vulnerabilities.
1) Use-after-free error
EUVDB-ID: #VU6195
Risk: High
CVSSv4.0: 6.1 [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]
CVE-ID: CVE-2017-3058
CWE-ID:
CWE-416 - Use After Free
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to use-after-free error when handling malicious content. A remote unauthenticated attacker can create a specially crafted SWF file, trick the victim into opening it, trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code on the target system with privileges of the current user.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in remote code execution.
