Where	From remote "From remote" describes other vulnerabilities where the attack vector doesn't require access to the system or a local network. This category covers services that are acceptable to expose to the Internet (e.g. HTTP, HTTPS, SMTP). It also covers client applications used on the Internet and certain vulnerabilities where it is reasonable to assume that a security conscious user can be tricked into performing certain actions.
Impact	System access This covers vulnerabilities where malicious people are able to gain system access and execute arbitrary code with the privileges of a local user. Exposure of sensitive information Vulnerabilities where documents or credentials are leaked or can be revealed either locally or from remote.
Description	Some vulnerabilities have been reported in Adobe Flash Player, which can be exploited by malicious people to gain knowledge of sensitive information or compromise a user's system. 1) A boundary error when processing FLV files can be exploited to cause a buffer overflow via an FLV file with a specially crafted DataObject section. Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code when a user e.g. visits a malicious website. The vulnerability affects versions 9.0.45.0 and prior. 2) An error within the interaction of Flash Player and certain browsers can be exploited to leak key presses to a Flash Player applet. The vulnerability affects versions 7.0.69.0 and prior on Linux and Solaris. It does not affect Flash Player 9. A bug has also been reported in the validation of the HTTP Referer in versions 8.0.34.0 and prior, which may aid in e.g. CSRF (Cross-Site Request Forgery) attacks.
