Description

This module exploits a buffer overflow on Adobe Flash Player when handling nellymoser
encoded audio inside a FLV video, as exploited in the wild on June 2015. This module
has been tested successfully on:

Windows 7 SP1 (32-bit), IE11 and Adobe Flash 18.0.0.160,
Windows 7 SP1 (32-bit), Firefox 38.0.5 and Adobe Flash 18.0.0.160,
Windows 8.1, Firefox 38.0.5 and Adobe Flash 18.0.0.160,
Linux Mint "Rebecca" (32 bits), Firefox 33.0 and Adobe Flash 11.2.202.466, and
Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS, Firefox 35.01, and Adobe Flash 11.2.202.466.

Note that this exploit is effective against both CVE-2015-3113 and the
earlier CVE-2015-3043, since CVE-2015-3113 is effectively a regression
to the same root cause as CVE-2015-3043.
