Adobe Flash Player before 11.7.700.269 and 11.8.x through 12.0.x before 12.0.0.70 on Windows and Mac OS X and before 11.2.202.341 on Linux, Adobe AIR before 4.0.0.1628 on Android, Adobe AIR SDK before 4.0.0.1628, and Adobe AIR SDK & Compiler before 4.0.0.1628 do not prevent access to address information, which makes it easier for attackers to bypass the ASLR protection mechanism via unspecified vectors.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2014-0499 is an Adobe Flash Player and Adobe AIR weakness that can expose memory address information. That information can help attackers bypass ASLR, a defense meant to make exploitation harder. The record does not show active exploitation, but affected legacy Flash or AIR deployments should be treated as avoidable risk. Exposure is most likely in environments still running the listed Flash Player or AIR versions, including legacy browser plugin stacks, Linux packages, Android AIR runtimes, or developer systems with old AIR SDK tooling. Prioritize remediation where Flash or AIR remains installed on user endpoints or build systems. This is not documented as actively exploited in the bundle, but it weakens a core exploit mitigation and belongs in legacy software cleanup. Mitigation focus: Update Flash Player and AIR components to vendor-fixed versions or later.; Check Adobe APSB14-07 and Linux vendor advisories for platform-specific packages.; Remove or disable Flash/AIR components that are no longer required..
