  • Detect ActionScript triggering Color.setTransform with an object whose property valueOf callback removes the TextField the Color object was bound to — classic UaF pattern in Flash Player.
  • Look for SWF files that construct a Color object on a TextField and pass a transform object with a valueOf function that calls removeTextField() on the same field.
  • ·CVE-2015-5574 is one of several distinct use-after-free vulnerabilities fixed in APSB15-23; the NVD sources provided primarily describe CVE-2015-6682 and CVE-2015-5581. The PoC (EDB-39652) is attributed to the Color.setTransform UaF but its exact CVE mapping should be verified against Adobe's advisory.
  • ·Affected versions span Flash Player before 18.0.0.241 / 19.x before 19.0.0.185 (Windows/OS X), before 11.2.202.521 (Linux), and AIR/AIR SDK/AIR SDK & Compiler before 19.0.0.190.
