Adobe Flash CS3 Professional FLA File Parsing Multiple Local Code
Execute Vulnerabilities

Summary:

    More than three local code execute vulnerabilities exist in Adobe
Flash CS3 Professional while it is parsing FLA files. An attacker who
successfully exploit these vulnerabilities can run arbitrary code on
the affected system.



Affected Software Versions:

    Adobe Flash CS3 Professional 9.0
    Macromedia Flash MX 2004



Details:

    All these vulnerabilities are due to the parser does not handle
the malformed FLA file accurately, by changing value of some special
addresses in normal FLA file, it can result in some unexpected errors
at "call" instruction, the following is one of the situations:

	eax=00000000 ebx=00000000 ecx=41414141 edx=00000000 esi=08feac38 edi=0012eb2c
	eip=00943502 esp=0012e15c ebp=08feac3c iopl=0         nv up ei pl nz na pe nc
	cs=001b  ss=0023  ds=0023  es=0023  fs=003b  gs=0000             efl=00250206
	*** ERROR: Symbol file could not be found.  Defaulted to export
symbols for Flash-unprepped.exe -
	Flash_unprepped!std::basic_istream<char,std::char_traits<char>
>::basic_istream<char,std::char_traits<char> >+0x3d7762:
	00943502 8b01            mov     eax,dword ptr
[ecx]	ds:0023:41414141=????????, can be controlled
	00943504 8b10            mov     edx,dword ptr [eax]
	00943506 6a01            push    1
	00943508 ffd2            call    edx				; code executing is possible
	0094350a 8bbe48020000    mov     edi,dword ptr [esi+248h]
	00943510 3bfb            cmp     edi,ebx
	00943512 899ef4010000    mov     dword ptr [esi+1F4h],ebx
	00943518 7410            je
Flash_unprepped!std::basic_istream<char,std::char_traits<char>
>::basic_istream<char,std::char_traits<char> >+0x3d778a (0094352a)


    It is confirmed that at least one of them can be written
successful working exploits for, on the other hand, because the FLA
file can not be loaded remotely, which can reduce the threat of these
vulnerabilities.



Vendor Response:

    Adobe has replied me that they will fix these vulnerabilities in
the next major release of Flash Professional, we suggest all of the
Adobe Flash CS3 Professional users do not open the FLA file which are
from distrustful source.
