## Description

Adobe Flash Player before 13.0.0.241 and 14.x before 14.0.0.176 on Windows
and OS X and before 11.2.202.400 on Linux, Adobe AIR before 14.0.0.178 on
Windows and OS X and before 14.0.0.179 on Android, Adobe AIR SDK before
14.0.0.178, and Adobe AIR SDK & Compiler before 14.0.0.178 do not properly
restrict discovery of memory addresses, which allows attackers to bypass
the ASLR protection mechanism via unspecified vectors, a different

CVE-2014-0545.
