Description

Some vulnerabilities have been reported in Adobe Flex, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting attacks, bypass security features, gain knowledge of sensitive information, or compromise a user's system.

1) Multiple vulnerabilities in the included Adobe Flash Player can be exploited by malicious people to bypass security features, gain knowledge of sensitive information, or compromise a user's system.

For more information:

2) Input passed via the URL to the index.template.html express-install template file is not properly sanitised before being returned to the user. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in context of an affected site.
