Description Agostino Sarubbo gentoo-dev 2013-02-26 21:40:02 UTC
From ${URL} :

Adobe has released security updates for Adobe Flash Player 11.6.602.168 and earlier versions for 
Windows, Adobe Flash Player 11.6.602.167 and earlier versions for Macintosh, and Adobe Flash Player 
11.2.202.270 and earlier versions for Linux. These updates address vulnerabilities that could cause 
a crash and potentially allow an attacker to take control of the affected system.

Adobe is aware of reports that CVE-2013-0643 and CVE-2013-0648 are being exploited in the wild in 
targeted attacks designed to trick the user into clicking a link which directs to a website serving 
malicious Flash (SWF) content. The exploit for CVE-2013-0643 and CVE-2013-0648 is designed to 
target the Firefox browser.

Users of Adobe Flash Player 11.2.202.270 and earlier versions for Linux should update to Adobe 
Flash Player 11.2.202.273.

CVE-2013-0648 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2013-0648):
  Unspecified vulnerability in the ExternalInterface ActionScript
  functionality in Adobe Flash Player before 10.3.183.67 and 11.x before
  11.6.602.171 on Windows and Mac OS X, and before 10.3.183.67 and 11.x before
  11.2.202.273 on Linux, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via
  crafted SWF content, as exploited in the wild in February 2013.

CVE-2013-0643 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2013-0643):
  The Firefox sandbox in Adobe Flash Player before 10.3.183.67 and 11.x before
  11.6.602.171 on Windows and Mac OS X, and before 10.3.183.67 and 11.x before
  11.2.202.273 on Linux, does not properly restrict privileges, which makes it
  easier for remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted SWF
  content, as exploited in the wild in February 2013.

CVE-2013-0504 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2013-0504):
  Buffer overflow in the broker service in Adobe Flash Player before
  10.3.183.67 and 11.x before 11.6.602.171 on Windows and Mac OS X, and before
  10.3.183.67 and 11.x before 11.2.202.273 on Linux, allows attackers to
  execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors.
