Type confusion

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

The weakness exists due to type confusion error. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted Web site or . swf file, trick the victim into visiting it and execute arbitrary code with privileges of the current user.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability results in arbitrary code execution on the vulnerable system.

Note: the vulnerability was being actively exploited.

Directory traversal

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to obtain potentially sensitive information on the target system.

The weakness exists due to improper validation of the user-supplied input. A remote attacker can create specially crafted HTTP request containing "dot dot" sequences (/../) and view contents of arbitrary files on vulnerable system.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to obtain potentially sensitive information and compromise vulnerable system.

Note: the vulnerability was being actively exploited.

Arbitrary code execution

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

The weakness exists due to an error in the ExternalInterface ActionScript feature. A remote attacker can create specially crafted Web site serving malicious Flash (SWF) content, trick the victim into visiting it and execute arbitrary code with privileges of the current user.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability results in arbitrary code execution on the vulnerable system.

Note: the vulnerability was being actively exploited.

Arbitrary code execution

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

The weakness exists due to an error when handling permissions of the Flash Player Firefox sandbox. A remote attacker can create specially crafted Web site serving malicious Flash (SWF) content, trick the victim into visiting it, bypass the sandbox restrictions and execute arbitrary code outside the sandbox with privileges of the current user.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability results in arbitrary code execution on the vulnerable system.

Note: the vulnerability was being actively exploited.

Buffer overflow

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

The weakness exists due to buffer overflow when handling malicious files. A remote attacker can create specially crafted PDF file, trick the victim into opening it, trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code with privileges of the current user.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability results in arbitrary code execution on the vulnerable system.

Note: the vulnerability was being actively exploited.

Memory corruption

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

The weakness exists due to boundary error when handling malicious files. A remote attacker can create specially crafted PDF file, trick the victim into opening it, trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code with privileges of the current user.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability results in arbitrary code execution on the vulnerable system.

Note: the vulnerability was being actively exploited.

Memory corruption

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

The weakness exists due to boundary error in Flash Player for Firefox. A remote attacker can create specially crafted .swf file, trick the victim into opening it, trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code with privileges of the current user.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability results in arbitrary code execution on the vulnerable system.

Note: the vulnerability was being actively exploited.

Buffer overflow

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

The weakness exists due to buffer overflow in ActiveX version of Flash Player. A remote attacker can create specially crafted .swf file, trick the victim into opening it, trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code with privileges of the current user.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability results in arbitrary code execution on the vulnerable system.

Note: the vulnerability was being actively exploited.

Authentication bypass

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

The vulnerability exists due to improper authentication, when password is not configured. A remote unauthenticated attacker can bypass authentication process and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Note: the vulnerability was being actively exploited.

Authentication bypass

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass authentication.

The vulnerability exists due to an error in authentication process, when a password is not configured. A remote unauthenticated attacker can gain unauthorized access to restricted directories.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability results in unauthorized gaining access to the directories.

Note: the vulnerability was being actively exploited.

Information disclosure

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to obtain potentially sensitive information on the target system.

The weakness exists due to improper access control. A remote attacker can gain access to important data.

Note: the vulnerability was being actively exploited.

Authentication bypass

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass authentication and gain unauthorized access to vulnerable system.

The vulnerability exists due to an error within administrator.cfc. A remote unauthenticated attacker can access Adobe ColdFusion application using a default empty password, login to the RDS component and leverage this session to access administrative web interface.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability results in unauthorized access to Adobe ColdFusion.

Note: the vulnerability was being actively exploited.
