Package: flashplugin-nonfree
Version: 1:1.4
Severity: grave
Tags: security
Justification: user security hole

Adobe Flash Player is prone to an unspecified remote code-execution vulnerability.

An attacker may exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code in the context of the affected application. Failed exploit attempts will likely result in denial-of-service conditions.

Adobe Flash Player 9.0.115.0 and 9.0.124.0 are vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
