Microsoft IE And Microsoft Edge Flash Player Multiple Vulnerabilities (3135782). This host is missing a critical security update according to Microsoft Bulletin MS16-022. Multiple flaws exist due to multiple memory corruption, use-after-free, heap buffer overflow, and type confusion vulnerabilities. Successful exploitation will potentially allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code. Affected systems include Microsoft Windows 8.1, Windows Server 2012/2012R2, Windows 10, and Windows 10 Version 1511
