3. Description:

The flash-plugin package contains a Mozilla Firefox compatible Adobe Flash Player web browser plug-in.

This update fixes multiple vulnerabilities in Adobe Flash Player. These vulnerabilities are detailed in the Adobe Security Bulletin APSB14-14, listed in the References section.

Multiple flaws were found in the way flash-plugin displayed certain SWF content.

(CVE-2014-0510, CVE-2014-0517, CVE-2014-0518, CVE-2014-0519, CVE-2014-0520)

A flaw in flash-plugin could allow an attacker to bypass the same-origin policy. (CVE-2014-0516)

All users of Adobe Flash Player should install this updated package, which upgrades Flash Player to version 11.2.202.359.
