CVE-2015-7659
Status: ModifiedHigh (9.3)—
Adobe Flash Player before 18.0.0.261 and 19.x before 19.0.0.245 on Windows and OS X and before 11.2.202.548 on Linux, Adobe AIR before 19.0.0.241, Adobe AIR SDK before 19.0.0.241, and Adobe AIR SDK & Compiler before 19.0.0.241 allow attackers to execute arbitrary code by leveraging an unspecified "type confusion" in the NetConnection object implementation.
CVSS
- Version: 2.0
- Vector: AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C
- Base score: 9.3
Exploitation probability (EPSS)
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 6.17%
- Percentile among all scored CVEs: 93
- Score date: 10/7/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).
