Multiple vulnerabilities have been identified in Adobe Flash Player, which can be exploited by malicious people to execute arbitrary code on the target system and take control of a vulnerable system. A remote malicious user can create a specially crafted Flash content that, when loaded by the target user, will trigger a buffer overflow or a memory corruption error, and then execute arbitrary code on the target system. The code will run with the privileges of the target user.
NOTE: The vulnerabilities are currently being actively exploited.
