System access

This covers vulnerabilities where malicious people are able to gain system access and execute arbitrary code with the privileges of a local user.

Description

Multiple vulnerabilities have been reported in Adobe Flash Player, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct click-jacking attacks or compromise a user's system.

1) An error in the ActionScript Virtual Machine 1 (AVM1) when handling the "ActionPush" command can be exploited to corrupt memory.

2) Unspecified errors can be exploited to corrupt memory. No more information is currently available.

3) An unspecified error can be exploited to corrupt memory. No more information is currently available.

4) An error in the "connect" method exposed via ActionScript native object number 2200 can be exploited to corrupt memory by calling the method several times with differing strings.

5) An unspecified error can be exploited to corrupt memory. No more information is currently available.

Successful exploitation of vulnerabilities #1 through #5 may allow execution of arbitrary code.

6) A click-jacking error can be exploited to trick a user into performing unintended actions.
