Description

Adobe Shockwave Player before 11.5.7.609 does not properly parse 3D objects in .dir (aka Director) files, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (heap memory corruption) via a modified field in a 0xFFFFFF49 record.

Solution(s)

  • adobe-shockwave-upgrade-latest

With Rapid7 live dashboards, I have a clear view of all the assets on my network, which ones can be exploited, and what I need to do in order to reduce the risk in my environment in real-time. No other tool gives us that kind of value and insight.
