An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2015-8421 exists.\n\nAffected product: Adobe Air. 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-2015-8421/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-8421/index.md)","id":"CVE-2015-8421","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-8421/index.md","name":"CVE-2015-8421","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-8wxq-x99j-4qjj","UBUNTU-CVE-2015-8421"],"analysis":{"component_type":"browser","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Adobe Flash Player","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can execute arbitrary code via a use-after-free vulnerability in Adobe Flash Player, requiring user interaction to view malicious content.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"use_after_free"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"adobe","cpe":[{"product":"air","vendor":"adobe"},{"product":"air_sdk","vendor":"adobe"},{"product":"air_sdk_\\\u0026_compiler","vendor":"adobe"},{"product":"flash_player","vendor":"adobe"}],"cvss":{"score":10,"severity":"critical","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[],"description":"Use-after-free vulnerability in Adobe Flash Player before 18.0.0.268 and 19.x and 20.x before 20.0.0.228 on Windows and OS X and before 11.2.202.554 on Linux, Adobe AIR before 20.0.0.204, Adobe AIR SDK before 20.0.0.204, and Adobe AIR SDK \u0026 Compiler before 20.0.0.204 allows attackers to execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors, a different vulnerability than CVE-2015-8048, CVE-2015-8049, CVE-2015-8050, CVE-2015-8055, CVE-2015-8056, CVE-2015-8057, CVE-2015-8058, CVE-2015-8059, CVE-2015-8061, CVE-2015-8062, CVE-2015-8063, CVE-2015-8064, CVE-2015-8065, CVE-2015-8066, CVE-2015-8067, CVE-2015-8068, CVE-2015-8069, CVE-2015-8070, CVE-2015-8071, CVE-2015-8401, CVE-2015-8402, CVE-2015-8403, CVE-2015-8404, CVE-2015-8405, CVE-2015-8406, CVE-2015-8410, CVE-2015-8411, CVE-2015-8412, CVE-2015-8413, CVE-2015-8414, CVE-2015-8420, CVE-2015-8422, CVE-2015-8423, CVE-2015-8424, CVE-2015-8425, CVE-2015-8426, CVE-2015-8427, CVE-2015-8428, CVE-2015-8429, CVE-2015-8430, CVE-2015-8431, CVE-2015-8432, CVE-2015-8433, CVE-2015-8434, CVE-2015-8435, CVE-2015-8436, CVE-2015-8437, CVE-2015-8441, CVE-2015-8442, CVE-2015-8447, CVE-2015-8448, CVE-2015-8449, CVE-2015-8450, CVE-2015-8452, and CVE-2015-8454.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2015-12-18","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2015-12-18","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"39045","stars":null,"title":"Adobe Flash TextField.thickness Setter - Use-After-Free"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Use after free in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-8421","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"adobe:air","products":["adobe:air","adobe:air_sdk","adobe:air_sdk_\\\u0026_compiler","adobe:flash_player"],"type":"use_after_free","year":"2015"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":11,"next":{"headline":"Use after free in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-8422"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Use after free in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-8420"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2015-12-10","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Adobe Flash Player and AIR Integer Overflow","id":"CVE-2016-1010","kev_date_added":"2022-05-25","published":"2016-03-12"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Adobe Flash Player Integer Overflow","id":"CVE-2015-8651","kev_date_added":"2022-05-25","published":"2015-12-28"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Adobe Flash Player Dereferenced Pointer","id":"CVE-2014-8439","kev_date_added":"2022-05-25","published":"2014-11-25"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Adobe Flash Player Memory Corruption","id":"CVE-2012-2034","kev_date_added":"2022-03-28","published":"2012-06-09"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-8459","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2015-12-28"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-8045","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2015-12-10"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-8047","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2015-12-10"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"GPL-2.0-or-later","name":"Exploit-DB"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-06","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Attackers can execute arbitrary code via a use-after-free vulnerability in Adobe Flash Player, requiring user interaction to view malicious content.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-8421/"}
