It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link."},"fix_prompt":"Check this codebase for CVE-2015-5122 and fix it if it is affected.\n\nWhat it is: CVE-2015-5122 is a high-severity use after free vulnerability in Adobe Flash Player, published on 14 Jul 2015. It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: Yes. Attackers have exploited CVE-2015-5122 in the wild since at least 13 Apr 2022.\n\nAffected product: Adobe Flash Player. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-5122/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-5122/index.md)","id":"CVE-2015-5122","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-5122/index.md","name":"CVE-2015-5122","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-9h3m-vp3m-35pw","UBUNTU-CVE-2015-5122"],"analysis":{"component_type":"browser","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Adobe Flash Player","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can execute arbitrary code or cause denial of service via crafted Flash content exploiting a use-after-free flaw in Adobe Flash Player.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"use_after_free"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"adobe","cpe":[{"product":"flash_player","vendor":"adobe"},{"product":"flash_player_desktop_runtime","vendor":"adobe"},{"product":"evergreen","vendor":"opensuse"},{"product":"enterprise_linux_desktop","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"enterprise_linux_server","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"enterprise_linux_server_eus","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"enterprise_linux_workstation","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"linux_enterprise_desktop","vendor":"suse"},{"product":"linux_enterprise_workstation_extension","vendor":"suse"}],"cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-416","name":"Use After Free"}],"description":"Use-after-free vulnerability in the DisplayObject class in the ActionScript 3 (AS3) implementation in Adobe Flash Player 13.x through 13.0.0.302 on Windows and OS X, 14.x through 18.0.0.203 on Windows and OS X, 11.x through 11.2.202.481 on Linux, and 12.x through 18.0.0.204 on Linux Chrome installations allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via crafted Flash content that leverages improper handling of the opaqueBackground property, as exploited in the wild in July 2015.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2015-07-06","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":1,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2015-07-06","kind":"metasploit","ref":"exploit/multi/browser/adobe_flash_opaque_background_uaf","stars":null,"title":"Adobe Flash opaqueBackground Use After Free"},{"date":"2015-07-13","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"37599","stars":null,"title":"Adobe Flash -
