CVE-2016-4178
Adobe Flash Player before 18.0.0.366 and 19.x through 22.x before 22.0.0.209 on Windows and OS X and before 11.2.202.632 on Linux allows attackers to bypass intended access restrictions and obtain sensitive information via unspecified vectors.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (3.46%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
