DESCRIPTION:
Tielei Wang has discovered a vulnerability in Adobe Flash
Professional CS5, which can be exploited by malicious people to
compromise a user's system.

The vulnerability is caused due to an integer overflow error in
Flash.exe when allocating memory to process a JPG object using its
image dimensions. This can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer
overflow via a specially crafted FLA file.

Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code, but
requires tricking a user into opening a malicious file.

The vulnerability is reported in version 11.5.1.349 and prior for
Windows and Macintosh (confirmed in 11.5.1.349).

SOLUTION:
Upgrade to Adobe Flash Professional CS6.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
Tielei Wang, Georgia Tech Information Security Center via Secunia.
