The version of Adobe Flash Player installed on the remote Windows host is equal or prior to version 23.0.0.162. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

  • A type confusion error exists that allows an unauthenticated, remote attacker to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-6992)

  • Multiple use-after-free errors exist that allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-6981, CVE-2016-6987)

  • An unspecified security bypass vulnerability exists that allows an unauthenticated, remote attacker to bypass security restrictions. (CVE-2016-4286)

  • Multiple memory corruption issues exist that allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-4273, CVE-2016-6982, CVE-2016-6983, CVE-2016-6984, CVE-2016-6985, CVE-2016-6986, CVE-2016-6989, CVE-2016-6990)
