1. Impact

    Three security vulnerabilities in the Adobe Flash Player product
    shipped with Solaris 10 may allow remote users who create applications
    that are viewed with the Flash Player to perform unauthorized actions
    on the host. These actions may include executing arbitrary code with
    the privileges of the user running the Flash Player, generation of
    unauthorized HTTP requests from the affected host, or, depending on
    the browser that is used with the Flash player, unauthorized access to
    information entered into the affected host via the logging of
    keystrokes.

    These issues are described in the following documents:

2. Contributing Factors

    These issues can occur in the following releases:

    SPARC Platform
      * Solaris 10 without patch 125332-02

    x86 Platform
      * Solaris 10 without patch 125333-02

    Notes:
     1. These issues can occur in Adobe Flash Player 7.x for Solaris.
     2. Solaris 8 and Solaris 9 are not affected by this issue.

    The Adobe Flash Player shipped with Solaris is a Web Browser plugin,
    meaning that the Web Browser should be used to determine the version
    of the Flash Player in use. For example, when using the Mozilla
    Browser, visit the following URL:

    about:plugins

    and search for the Flash Player in the list of plugins.

3. Symptoms

    There are no predictable symptoms that would indicate the described
    issues have been exploited.

4. Relief/Workaround

    There is no workaround for this issue. Please see the Resolution
    section below.

5. Resolution

    These issues are addressed in the following releases:

    SPARC Platform
      * Solaris 10 with patch 125332-02 or later

    x86 Platform
      * Solaris 10 with patch 125333-02 or later

    Note: The above listed patches will upgrade the Flash Player to
    version 9.0 r47.
