HTTP: Adobe Flash Player Remote Code Execution

This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability against Adobe Flash Player. A successful attack can lead to arbitrary code execution.

Extended Description

Adobe Flash Player is prone to a remote code-execution vulnerability because it fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input. An attacker can exploit this issue by tricking an unsuspecting victim into opening a malicious file. A successful exploit will result in the execution of arbitrary attacker-supplied code in the context of the victim running the vulnerable application. Adobe Flash Player 9.0.45.0 and earlier, 8.0.34.0 and earlier, and 7.0.69.0 and earlier are affected.
