An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2017-2938 in the wild and no public exploit code.\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-2017-2938/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-2938/index.md)","id":"CVE-2017-2938","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-2938/index.md","name":"CVE-2017-2938","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-gx39-fvj4-xp9c","UBUNTU-CVE-2017-2938"],"analysis":{"component_type":"browser","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Adobe Flash Player","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can bypass security restrictions in Adobe Flash Player by exploiting improper handling of TCP connections.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"security_feature_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"adobe","cpe":[{"product":"flash_player","vendor":"adobe"}],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"Adobe Flash Player versions 24.0.0.186 and earlier have a security bypass vulnerability related to handling TCP connections.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Security feature bypass in Adobe Flash Player 24.0.0.186 and earlier.","id":"CVE-2017-2938","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"adobe:flash_player","products":["adobe:flash_player"],"type":"security_feature_bypass","year":"2017"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":5,"next":{"headline":"Memory corruption in Adobe Acrobat Reader 15.020.20042 and earlier, 15.006.30244 and earlier, 11.0.18 and earlier.","id":"CVE-2017-2939"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Use after free in Adobe Flash Player 24.0.0.186 and earlier.","id":"CVE-2017-2937"},"products":["Adobe Flash Player 24.0.0.186 and earlier."],"published":"2017-01-11","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Adobe Flash Player Type Confusion","id":"CVE-2017-11292","kev_date_added":"2022-03-03","published":"2017-10-21"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Adobe Flash Player Use-After-Free","id":"CVE-2016-7892","kev_date_added":"2022-03-25","published":"2016-12-15"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Adobe Flash Player Use-After-Free","id":"CVE-2016-7855","kev_date_added":"2022-03-03","published":"2016-11-01"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Adobe Flash Player Integer Underflow Vulnerablity","id":"CVE-2014-0497","kev_date_added":"2024-09-17","published":"2014-02-05"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Adobe Flash Player Incorrect Default Permissions","id":"CVE-2013-0643","kev_date_added":"2024-09-17","published":"2013-02-27"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Adobe Flash Player Code Execution","id":"CVE-2013-0648","kev_date_added":"2024-09-17","published":"2013-02-27"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Adobe Flash Player Integer Overflow","id":"CVE-2012-5054","kev_date_added":"2022-06-08","published":"2012-09-24"}],"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)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-05","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Attackers can bypass security restrictions in Adobe Flash Player by exploiting improper handling of TCP connections.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-2938/"}
