Title:RHSA-2011:0511: flash-plugin security update (Critical)
Description:The flash-plugin package contains a Mozilla Firefox compatible Adobe Flash Player web browser plug-in.

This update fixes multiple vulnerabilities in Adobe Flash Player. These vulnerabilities are detailed on the Adobe security page APSB11-12, listed in the References section.

  • Multiple security flaws were found in the way flash-plugin displayed certain SWF content.

(CVE-2011-0618, CVE-2011-0619, CVE-2011-0620, CVE-2011-0621, CVE-2011-0622, CVE-2011-0623, CVE-2011-0624, CVE-2011-0625, CVE-2011-0626, CVE-2011-0627)

  • This update also fixes an information disclosure flaw in flash-plugin. (CVE-2011-0579)

    All users of Adobe Flash Player should install this updated package, which upgrades Flash Player to version 10.3.181.14.
