Unspecified vulnerability in Adobe Flash Player through 13.0.0.262 and 14.x, 15.x, and 16.x through 16.0.0.287 on Windows and OS X and through 11.2.202.438 on Linux allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via unknown vectors, as exploited in the wild in January 2015.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2015-0311 is a known-exploited Adobe Flash Player code-execution flaw. A user interacting with malicious content could allow an attacker to run code on the affected machine. The source bundle confirms exploitation in January 2015 and CISA KEV listing, but does not show current campaign activity. Exposure is most likely on legacy endpoints, kiosks, or business systems that still run Adobe Flash Player versions at or below 16.0.0.287 on Windows or OS X, 13.0.0.262 ESR, or 11.2.202.438 on Linux. Treat this as urgent for any environment still carrying Flash. The product is legacy, the bug enables code execution, and known exploitation is documented. Risk is mainly residual legacy exposure, not modern default software exposure. Mitigation focus: Inventory systems for any installed Adobe Flash Player runtime or browser plugin.; Remove Flash where no longer required for business operations.; For required legacy use, follow Adobe APSB15-03 and OS vendor guidance..
