    Multiple vulnerabilities have been reported in Adobe Flash Player:
    </p>
    <ul>
    <li>lakehu of Tencent Security Center reported an unspecified
    memory corruption vulnerability (CVE-2009-1862).</li>
    <li>Mike Wroe
    reported an unspecified vulnerability, related to "privilege
    escalation" (CVE-2009-1863).</li>
    <li>An anonymous researcher through
    iDefense reported an unspecified heap-based buffer overflow
    (CVE-2009-1864).</li>
    <li>Chen Chen of Venustech reported an
    unspecified "null pointer vulnerability" (CVE-2009-1865).</li>
    <li>Chen
    Chen of Venustech reported an unspecified stack-based buffer overflow
    (CVE-2009-1866).</li>
    <li>Joran Benker reported that Adobe Flash Player
    facilitates "clickjacking" attacks (CVE-2009-1867).</li>
    <li>Jun Mao of
    iDefense reported a heap-based buffer overflow, related to URL parsing
    (CVE-2009-1868).</li>
    <li>Roee Hay of IBM Rational Application Security
    reported an unspecified integer overflow (CVE-2009-1869).</li>
    <li>Gareth Heyes and Microsoft Vulnerability Research reported that the
    sandbox in Adobe Flash Player allows for information disclosure, when
    "SWFs are saved to the hard drive" (CVE-2009-1870).</li>
    </ul>
  </description>
  <impact type="normal">
    <p>
    A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted PDF
    file or web site containing Adobe Flash (SWF) contents, possibly
    resulting in the execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the
    user running the application, or a Denial of Service (application
    crash). Furthermore, a remote attacker could trick a user into clicking
    a button on a dialog by supplying a specially crafted SWF file and
    disclose sensitive information by exploiting a sandbox issue.
    </p>
  </impact>
  <workaround>
    <p>
    There is no known workaround at this time.
    </p>
  </workaround>
  <resolution>
    <p>
    All Adobe Flash Player users should upgrade to the latest version:
    </p>
    <code>
    # emerge --sync
    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=www-plugins/adobe-flash-10.0.32.18&quot;</code>
    <p>
    All Adobe Reader users should upgrade to the latest version:
    </p>
    <code>
    # emerge --sync
    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=app-text/acroread-9.1.3&quot;</code>
