Posted Jan 21, 2010
Authored by Alin Rad Pop | Site secunia.com

Secunia Research has discovered four vulnerabilities in Adobe Shockwave Player, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system. The vulnerabilities are caused by four integer overflow errors when processing a certain block type. These can be exploited to cause heap-based buffer overflows via specially crafted Shockwave files. Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code. Version 11.5.2.602 is affected.
