Detection & IOCsextracted from sources · hover to see the quote
- →CVE-2017-11282 is triggered by a crafted SWF file containing malformed manipulation of the text field object, causing out-of-bounds memory access in the text handling functionality. ↗
- →The specific vulnerable function is TextFormat.applyToRange; an out-of-bounds read occurs within this function when processing a fuzzed/malformed SWF file. ↗
- →Attackers exploit the out-of-bounds access for unintended reads, writes, or frees, potentially enabling code corruption, control-flow hijack, or information leak; monitor Flash Player processes for anomalous memory access patterns. ↗
- ·Affected versions are Adobe Flash Player 26.0.0.151 and earlier across Windows, Macintosh, Linux, and Chrome OS — exploitation requires the target to open a specially crafted SWF file with a vulnerable Flash Player version. ↗
- ·The vulnerability resides in the text handling functionality (not the MP4 atom parser — that is CVE-2017-11281); NVD's description attributing it to the MP4 atom parser is inaccurate per Zscaler's technical analysis. ↗
