Description
This module exploits a use-after-free vulnerability in Adobe Flash Player. The
vulnerability occurs when the ByteArray assigned to the current ApplicationDomain
is freed from an ActionScript worker, which can fill the memory and notify the main
thread to corrupt the new contents. This module has been tested successfully on
Windows 7 SP1 (32-bit), IE 8 to IE 11 and Flash 16.0.0.296.
