Adobe Shockwave Player before 11.6.6.636 allows attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via unspecified vectors, a different vulnerability than CVE-2012-2043, CVE-2012-2044, CVE-2012-2045, and CVE-2012-2047.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is an old Adobe Shockwave Player memory corruption flaw. Systems running versions before 11.6.6.636 could let an attacker run arbitrary code or crash the player through unspecified vectors. Business urgency depends on whether legacy Shockwave remains installed anywhere. Exposure is most likely on legacy endpoints or managed browser environments that still have Adobe Shockwave Player installed below 11.6.6.636. The bundle does not identify server-side products, libraries, or cloud services as affected. Prioritize discovery first. The flaw can allow code execution, but it matters only where obsolete Shockwave installations remain. Treat any confirmed legacy deployment as a remediation item, especially on user workstations handling web or media content. Mitigation focus: Inventory endpoints for Adobe Shockwave Player installations and versions.; Upgrade affected installations to 11.6.6.636 or later per Adobe guidance.; Remove or disable legacy Shockwave where business use is no longer required..
