DESCRIPTION:
Multiple vulnerabilities have been reported in Adobe Flash Player,
which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site
scripting attacks, bypass certain security restrictions, and
compromise a user's system.

1) An unspecified error in an ActiveX Control can be exploited to
corrupt memory.

2) A type confusion error can be exploited to corrupt memory.

3) An unspecified error related to MP4 parsing can be exploited to
corrupt memory.

4) An unspecified error can be exploited to corrupt memory.

5) An unspecified error can be exploited to bypass certain security
restrictions.

6) An unspecified error can be exploited to bypass certain security
restrictions.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerabilities #1 through #6 may
allow execution of arbitrary code.

7) Certain unspecified input is not properly sanitised before being
returned to the user. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML
and script code in a user's browser session in context of an affected
site.

NOTE: This vulnerability is reportedly being actively exploited in
targeted attacks.

The vulnerabilities are reported in the following products:
* Adobe Flash Player versions 11.1.102.55 and prior for Windows,
Macintosh, Linux, and Solaris
* Adobe Flash Player versions 11.1.112.61 and prior for Android 4.x
