CVE-2011-0611: Adobe Flash Player before 10.2.154.27 on Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, and Solaris and 10.2.156.12 and earlier...

Adobe Flash Player before 10.2.154.27 on Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, and Solaris and 10.2.156.12 and earlier on Android; Adobe AIR before 2.6.19140; and Authplay.dll (aka AuthPlayLib.bundle) in Adobe Reader 9.x before 9.4.4 and 10.x through 10.0.1 on Windows, Adobe Reader 9.x before 9.4.4 and 10.x before 10.0.3 on Mac OS X, and Adobe Acrobat 9.x before 9.4.4 and 10.x before 10.0.3 on Windows and Mac OS X allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (application crash) via crafted Flash content; as demonstrated by a Microsoft Office document with an embedded .swf file that has a size inconsistency in a "group of included constants," object type confusion, ActionScript that adds custom functions to prototypes, and Date objects; and as exploited in the wild in April 2011.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2011-0611 lets a malicious Flash file crash applications or run code on a user's system. Real-world attacks used documents containing embedded Flash content. The main business concern is legacy exposure: old Flash, AIR, Reader, or Acrobat installations can turn ordinary document handling into endpoint compromise. Exposure is most likely on legacy endpoints, kiosks, archives, or disconnected systems still running affected Adobe Flash Player, AIR, Reader, or Acrobat versions. Modern environments are less likely exposed if Flash has been removed and Adobe document software is current. Prioritize rapid remediation only if legacy Adobe Flash or old Adobe document software remains. For most modern environments, the priority is verification and removal of residual Flash-era components rather than emergency response. Mitigation focus: Remove Adobe Flash Player where it is still present.; Update Adobe AIR, Reader, and Acrobat to vendor-fixed versions.; Disable Flash handling in document workflows where possible..

Access of Resource Using Incompatible Type ('Type Confusion')

Access of Resource Using Incompatible Type ('Type Confusion') represents a recurring weakness pattern that can create exploitable paths when design, validation, or implementation controls are missing.
