This vulnerability exists in the way the Flash Player mitigates memory randomization. It exists in several versions of Adobe Flash Player installed in Windows environments.
Adobe has released security updates for Adobe Flash Player for Windows, Macintosh and Linux. These updates address vulnerabilities that could potentially allow an attacker to take control of the affected system. Adobe recommends users update their product installations to the latest versions.
Microsoft addresses the following vulnerabilities in its December batch of patches:
This security update resolves four privately reported vulnerabilities in Microsoft Exchange Server. The most severe of these vulnerabilities could allow elevation of privilege if a user clicks a specially crafted URL that takes them to a targeted Outlook Web App site.
This security update resolves fourteen privately reported vulnerabilities in Internet Explorer. The most severe of these vulnerabilities could allow remote code execution if a user views a specially crafted webpage using Internet Explorer.
This security update resolves two privately reported vulnerabilities in Microsoft Word and Microsoft Office Web Apps. The vulnerabilities could allow remote code execution if an attacker convinces a user to open or preview a specially crafted Microsoft Word file in an affected version of Microsoft Office software.
This security update resolves one privately reported vulnerability in Microsoft Office. The vulnerability could allow remote code execution if a specially crafted file is opened in an affected edition of Microsoft Office.
This security update resolves two privately reported vulnerabilities in Microsoft Excel. The vulnerabilities could allow remote code execution if an attacker convinces a user to open or preview a specially crafted Microsoft Excel file in an affected version of Microsoft Office software.
This security update resolves a privately reported vulnerability in the VBScript scripting engine in Microsoft Windows. The vulnerability could allow remote code execution if a user visits a specially crafted website.
This security update resolves a publicly disclosed vulnerability in Microsoft Windows. The vulnerability could allow information disclosure if a user browses to a website containing specially crafted JPEG content.
This update resolves an elevation of privilege vulnerability found in the Kerberos KDC in certain Windows operating systems. The vulnerability exists in the improper validation of signatures. For an attacker to exploit the vulnerability, the attacker must have valid credentials for the domain where the vulnerable system is hosted.
In the November bulletin, MS14-068 and MS14-075 are not included. Microsoft, however, addresses the following vulnerabilities:
This security update addresses vulnerabilities found existing in Microsoft Windows Object Linking and Embedding (OLE). When exploited successfully, it could allow remote code execution via specially crafted webpage using Internet Explorer, thus compromising the security of the affected systems.
This security update addresses several vulnerabilities in Internet Explorer. Accordingly, it can possibly lead to remote code execution once users view a specially crafted webpage via Internet Explorer.
This security update addresses a vulnerability found existing in the Microsoft Secure Channel (Schannel) security package in Windows that could lead to remote code execution when exploited successfully.
This security update addresses a vulnerability in Microsoft Windows that could lead to remote code execution when exploited successfully.
This security update addresses several vulnerabilities found in Microsoft office. Once successfully exploited, it could allow remote code execution via specially crafted file opened by the user.
This security update addresses a vulnerability found in TCP/IP that happened during input/output control (IOCTL) processing. When successfully exploited, it could allow elevation of privilege.
This security update addresses a vulnerability found in Microsoft Windows that when successfully exploited, it could allow elevation of privilege via an app that employs Microsoft Windows Audio service.
This security update addresses a vulnerability found existing in Microsoft .NET Framework that could allow elevation of privilege.
This security update addresses a vulnerability found existing in Microsoft SharePoint Server that could run random scripts when successfully exploited.
