Solution Type: Sun Alert
Solution 248586 : Multiple Security Vulnerabilities in the Flash
Player Plugin for Solaris
Bug ID: 6766784
Product
Solaris 10 Operating System
OpenSolaris
SA Document Body
Multiple Security Vulnerabilities in the Flash Player plugin for Solaris:
1. Impact
Multiple security vulnerabilities in the Flash Player plugin
distributed with Solaris may allow a remote unprivileged user the
ability to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of a local user
on the system while loading a malicious SWF file with the affected
plugin. In addition, the Flash Player plugin may allow a remote user
to bypass the Security Sandbox Model, modify the clipboard with a URL,
allow cross-site scripting attacks, inject arbitrary web script or
HTML, obtain sensitive data, conduct DNS rebinding and hijack the
camera or microphone while loading a malicious SWF file with the
affected plugin.

2. Contributing Factors
These issues can occur in the following releases:
SPARC Platform
* Solaris 10 without patch 125332-04
* OpenSolaris based upon builds snv_103 or earlier
x86 Platform
* Solaris 10 without patch 125333-04
* OpenSolaris based upon builds snv_103 or earlier
Note 1: These issues can occur in Flash Player 9.0 r47 and Flash
Player 9.0 r124 for Solaris 10.
Note 2: Solaris 8 and Solaris 9 are not affected by these issues.
Note 3: OpenSolaris distributions may include additional bug fixes
above and beyond the build from which it was derived. To determine
the base build of OpenSolaris, the following command can be used:
$ uname -v
snv_86
The Flash Player shipped with Solaris is a Web Browser plugin, meaning
that the Web Browser should be used to determine the version of the
Flash Player in use:
about:plugins
Search for the Flash Player in the list of plugins.
3. Symptoms
There are no predictable symptoms that would indicate the described
issues have been exploited.
4. Workaround
There is no workaround for these issues. Please see the Resolution
section below.
5. Resolution
These issues are addressed in the following releases:
SPARC Platform
* Solaris 10 with patch 125332-04 or later
* OpenSolaris based upon builds snv_104 or later
x86 Platform
* Solaris 10 with patch 125333-04 or later
* OpenSolaris based upon builds snv_104 or later
Note: The above listed patches will upgrade the Flash Player to
version 9.0.151.0.
