Noroxi assessment

Priority: This week (action score 65/100)

  • The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
  • Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 92.5% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 99.8% of all records.
  • Fixed version: flash-plugin (Red Hat:rhel_extras:3) 0:9.0.124.0-1.el3.with.oss; flash-plugin (Red Hat:rhel_extras:4) 0:9.0.124.0-1.el4; flash-plugin (Red Hat:rhel_extras:5::client) 0:9.0.124.0-1.el5.

Don’t wait for the next maintenance window. Upgrade to flash-plugin (Red Hat:rhel_extras:3) 0:9.0.124.0-1.el3.with.oss; flash-plugin (Red Hat:rhel_extras:4) 0:9.0.124.0-1.el4; flash-plugin (Red Hat:rhel_extras:5::client) 0:9.0.124.0-1.el5 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS

Integer overflow in Adobe Flash Player 9.0.115.0 and earlier, and 8.0.39.0 and earlier, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted SWF file with a negative Scene Count value, which passes a signed comparison, is used as an offset of a NULL pointer, and triggers a buffer overflow.
