According to its version, the Adobe Flash Player installed on the remote Mac OS X host is equal or prior to 16.0.0.287. It is, therefore, affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  • A use-after-free error exists that allows an attacker to crash the application or execute arbitrary code.
    (CVE-2015-0311)

  • A double-free error exists that allows an attacker to crash the application or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-0312)
