Adobe Flash Player before 13.0.0.259 and 14.x through 16.x before 16.0.0.235 on Windows and OS X and before 11.2.202.425 on Linux allows attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via unspecified vectors, a different vulnerability than CVE-2014-0587.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2014-9164 is a memory corruption flaw in older Adobe Flash Player versions. A successful attack could let an attacker run code or crash the software. Business urgency depends on whether legacy Flash remains installed or usable in browsers or desktop workflows. Exposure is most likely where legacy Adobe Flash Player remains installed: Windows or OS X versions before 13.0.0.259 or 16.0.0.235, and Linux versions before 11.2.202.425. Treat as high priority only if Flash is still present. The main business risk is legacy software enabling code execution from an obsolete browser-plugin attack surface. Mitigation focus: Inventory systems for installed Adobe Flash Player versions.; Upgrade below-threshold Flash versions per Adobe APSB14-27 guidance.; Remove or disable Flash where it is no longer required..
