End of lifeAdobe Flash Player reached End of lifeThe vendor no longer ships security fixes. Remove or isolate the product instead of waiting for a patch. on 31 Dec 2020. No patch is coming: remove or isolate it.
Summary
Adobe Flash Player (versions before 13.0.0.262, 14.x through 16.x before 16.0.0.287 on Windows and OS X, and before 11.2.202.438 on Linux) fails to properly restrict discovery of memory addresses, which weakens address space layout randomization. An attacker with local access and no privileges, who needs a user to take an action such as opening crafted content, can exploit this to bypass ASLR on Windows, with unspecified effects on other platforms.
Official description · NVD
Adobe Flash Player before 13.0.0.262 and 14.x through 16.x before 16.0.0.287 on Windows and OS X and before 11.2.202.438 on Linux does not properly restrict discovery of memory addresses, which allows attackers to bypass the ASLR protection mechanism on Windows, and have an unspecified impact on other platforms, via unknown vectors, as exploited in the wild in January 2015.
