CVE-2016-4171
Estado: AnalizadaCrítica (9.8)⚠ Explotación activa
Unspecified vulnerability in Adobe Flash Player 21.0.0.242 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via unknown vectors, as exploited in the wild in June 2016.
CVSS
- Versión: 3.1
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
- Puntuación base: 9.8
Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)
- Probabilidad de explotación en los próximos 30 días: 20%
- Percentil entre todas las CVEs puntuadas: 97
- Fecha de la puntuación: 6/10/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, de FIRST) estima la probabilidad de que una vulnerabilidad sea explotada en 30 días. Complementa a CVSS (impacto) y a CISA KEV (explotación confirmada).
CISA KEV — explotada activamente
- Añadida al catálogo: 25/3/2022
- Plazo de remediación: 15/4/2022
- Uso conocido en ransomware: Unknown
🎯 Técnicas ATT&CK
Cómo se explota esta vulnerabilidad y qué consigue el atacante, en el lenguaje de MITRE ATT&CK.
- Explotación
T1190Exploit Public-Facing Applicationinitial access95 % - Impacto principal
T1059Command and Scripting Interpreterexecution85 % - Impacto secundario
T1005Data from Local Systemcollection60 % - Impacto secundario
T1565.001Stored Data Manipulationimpact55 %
Vector AV:N/PR:N/UI:N indica explotación remota sin autenticación (T1190). Ejecución de código arbitrario confirmada en descripción y uso activo en ransomware sugiere T1059 como impacto primario.
Inferido por nuestro agente de análisis a partir de la descripción oficial, el vector CVSS y la CWE, y comprobado por un supervisor. Puede contener errores.
