Multiple heap-based buffer overflows in Adobe Flash CS3 Professional on Windows and Flash MX 2004 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via an SWF file containing long control parameters.
The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it reads from or writes to a memory location outside the buffer's intended boundary. This may result in read or write operations on unexpected memory locations that could be linked to other variables, data structures, or internal program data.
