TITLE:
Adobe Flash Media Server Two Vulnerabilities
SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA37891
VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/37891/
DESCRIPTION:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in Adobe Flash Media Server,
which can be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of
Service) or compromise a vulnerable system.
1) An input sanitation error can be exploited to load arbitrary DLLs
from the server via directory traversal attacks.
Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code, but may
require that a specially crafted DLL is placed on a vulnerable
server.
2) An unspecified error can be exploited to exhaust available
resources and render a server unresponsive.
The vulnerabilities are reported in versions prior to 3.5.3.
SOLUTION:
Update to version 3.5.3:
