CVE-2017-11215
This vulnerability is an instance of a use after free vulnerability in the Primetime SDK.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (6.08%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
An issue was discovered in Adobe Flash Player 27.0.0.183 and earlier versions. This vulnerability is an instance of a use after free vulnerability in the Primetime SDK. The mismatch between an old and a new object can provide an attacker with unintended memory access -- potentially leading to code corruption, control-flow hijack, or an information leak attack. Successful exploitation could lead to arbitrary code execution.
