Summary
======
The package flashplugin before version 11.2.202.457-1 is vulnerable to
multiple issues including but not limited to arbitrary code execution,
ASLR protection bypass, information disclosure and denial of service.

Resolution
=========
Upgrade to 11.2.202.457-1.

# pacman -Syu "flashplugin>=11.2.202.457-1"

The problems have been fixed upstream in version 11.2.202.457.

Workaround
=========
None.

Description
==========
- CVE-2015-0346 (arbitrary code execution)

A double-free vulnerability allows attackers to execute arbitrary code
via unspecified vectors.

- CVE-2015-0347 (arbitrary code execution)

Memory corruption vulnerability that could lead to arbitrary code
execution or cause a denial of service via unspecified vectors.

- CVE-2015-0348 (arbitrary code execution)

A buffer overflow vulnerability that could lead to arbitrary code
execution via unspecified vectors.

- CVE-2015-0349 (arbitrary code execution)

A use-after-free vulnerability that could lead to arbitrary code
execution via unspecified vectors.

execution via unspecified vectors.

- CVE-2015-0352 (arbitrary code execution)

Memory corruption vulnerability that could lead to arbitrary code
execution or cause a denial of service via unspecified vectors.

- CVE-2015-0353 (arbitrary code execution)

Memory corruption vulnerability that could lead to arbitrary code
execution or cause a denial of service via unspecified vectors.

- CVE-2015-0354 (arbitrary code execution)

execution or cause a denial of service via unspecified vectors.

- CVE-2015-0356 (arbitrary code execution)

A type confusion vulnerability that could lead to arbitrary code
execution via unspecified vectors.

- CVE-2015-0357 (ASLR protection bypass)

Flash does not properly restrict discovery of memory addresses, which
allows attackers to bypass the ASLR protection mechanism via unspecified
vectors.

- CVE-2015-0358 (arbitrary code execution)

A use-after-free vulnerability that could lead to arbitrary code
execution via unspecified vectors.

- CVE-2015-0359 (arbitrary code execution)

A double-free vulnerability allows attackers to execute arbitrary code
via unspecified vectors.

Memory corruption vulnerability that could lead to arbitrary code
execution or cause a denial of service via unspecified vectors.

- CVE-2015-3038 (arbitrary code execution)

Memory corruption vulnerability that could lead to arbitrary code
execution or cause a denial of service via unspecified vectors.

- CVE-2015-3039 (arbitrary code execution)

A use-after-free vulnerability that could lead to arbitrary code
execution via unspecified vectors.

- CVE-2015-3040 (ASLR protection bypass)

Flash does not properly restrict discovery of memory addresses, which
allows attackers to bypass the ASLR protection mechanism via unspecified
vectors.

- CVE-2015-3041 (arbitrary code execution)

Memory corruption vulnerability that could lead to arbitrary code
execution or cause a denial of service via unspecified vectors.

- CVE-2015-3042 (arbitrary code execution)

Memory corruption vulnerability that could lead to arbitrary code
execution or cause a denial of service via unspecified vectors.

- CVE-2015-3043 (arbitrary code execution)

Memory corruption vulnerability that could lead to arbitrary code
execution or cause a denial of service via unspecified vectors.

- CVE-2015-3044 (information disclosure)

Attackers are able to bypass intended access restrictions and obtain
sensitive information via unspecified vectors.

Impact
=====
A remote attacker is able to execute arbitrary code, bypass the ASLR
protection, obtain sensitive information or cause a denial of service
via multiple vectors.
