Description

This module exploits a vulnerability in the DoABC tag handling within
versions 9.x and 10.0 of Adobe Flash Player. Adobe Reader and Acrobat are also
vulnerable, as are any other applications that may embed Flash player.

Arbitrary code execution is achieved by embedding a specially crafted Flash
movie into a PDF document. An AcroJS heap spray is used in order to ensure
that the memory used by the invalid pointer issue is controlled.

NOTE: This module uses a similar DEP bypass method to that used within the
adobe_libtiff module. This method is unlikely to work across various
Windows versions due a the hardcoded syscall number.
