CVE-2009-1869· NVD / CVE Program· CNA mitre

Integer overflow in the ActionScript Virtual Machine 2 (AVM2) abcFile parser in Adobe Flash Player before 9.0.246.0 and 10.x before 10.0.32.

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Plan (action score 43/100)

  • Public proof-of-concept code exists (Exploit-DB); there is no record of exploitation in the wild.
  • Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 19.6% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 97.3% of all records.
  • Fixed version: flash-plugin (Red Hat:rhel_extras:3) 0:9.0.246.0-2.el3.with.oss; flash-plugin (Red Hat:rhel_extras:4) 0:9.0.246.0-2.el4; flash-plugin (Red Hat:rhel_extras:5::client) 0:10.0.32.18-2.el5.

Add it to your regular patch cycle. Upgrade to flash-plugin (Red Hat:rhel_extras:3) 0:9.0.246.0-2.el3.with.oss; flash-plugin (Red Hat:rhel_extras:4) 0:9.0.246.0-2.el4; flash-plugin (Red Hat:rhel_extras:5::client) 0:10.0.32.18-2.el5 or later.

Integer overflow in the ActionScript Virtual Machine 2 (AVM2) abcFile parser in Adobe Flash Player before 9.0.246.0 and 10.x before 10.0.32.18, and Adobe AIR before 1.5.2, allows attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via an AVM2 file with a large intrf_count value that triggers a dereference of an out-of-bounds pointer.

Variant candidates

Same product, same weakness class, within 18 months. If the patch missed the root cause, the sibling bug is here.

No nightly-computed relations.

Chain candidates

An authentication bypass and a privilege-requiring bug in the same product, published close together: combined they may become an unauthenticated path.
