Description:
Several vulnerabilities were reported in Shockwave. A remote user can cause arbitrary code to be executed on the target user's system. A remote user can cause denial of service conditions.
A remote user can create specially crafted Shockwave content that, when loaded by the target user, will execute arbitrary code on the target system. The code will run with the privileges of the target user.
An invalid index vulnerability can cause code execution [CVE-2009-3463].
Some invalid pointer vulnerabilities can cause code execution [CVE-2009-3464, CVE-2009-3465].
An invalid string length vulnerability can cause code execution [CVE-2009-3466].
A boundary condition can cause denial of service conditions [CVE-2009-3244].
Nicolas Joly of VUPEN Security reported most of these vulnerabilities.
