Description

Adobe Flash Player 11.2.202.451 contains fixes to critical security
vulnerabilities found in earlier versions that could cause a crash and
potentially allow an attacker to take control of the affected system.

This update resolves memory corruption vulnerabilities that could lead
to code execution (CVE-2015-0332, CVE-2015-0333, CVE-2015-0335,
CVE-2015-0339).

This update resolves type confusion vulnerabilities that could lead
to code execution (CVE-2015-0334, CVE-2015-0336).

This update resolves a vulnerability that could lead to a cross-domain
policy bypass (CVE-2015-0337).

This update resolves a vulnerability that could lead to a file upload
restriction bypass (CVE-2015-0340).

This update resolves an integer overflow vulnerability that could lead
to code execution (CVE-2015-0338).

This update resolves use-after-free vulnerabilities that could lead
to code execution (CVE-2015-0341, CVE-2015-0342).

Additionally, the Flash Plugin package downloaded from Adobe is now
verified using recorded sha256sum and file size instead of using
insecure md5sum (mga#15229).
