| Description: | The flash-plugin package contains a Mozilla Firefox compatible Adobe Flash Player web browser plug-in.
This update fixes two vulnerabilities in Adobe Flash Player. These vulnerabilities are detailed on the Adobe security page APSB12-05, listed in the References section.
A flaw was found in the way flash-plugin displayed certain SWF content. An attacker could use this flaw to create a specially-crafted SWF file that would cause flash-plugin to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code when the victim loaded a page containing the specially-crafted SWF content. (CVE-2012-0768)
A flaw in flash-plugin could allow an attacker to obtain sensitive information if a victim were tricked into visiting a specially-crafted web page. (CVE-2012-0769)
All users of Adobe Flash Player should install this updated package, which upgrades Flash Player to version 10.3.183.16.
