Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Identify Flash Player version on Windows
    Open Control Panel > Programs and Features, find Adobe Flash Player, or right-click the Flash DLL (C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash\Flash*.ocx) and select Properties > Details to see the File Version
    Affected if Version is 10.3.x before 10.3.183.63, 11.1.x before 11.1.111.43 or 11.1.115.47, 11.2.x before 11.2.202.270, 11.6.x before 11.6.602.168, or any 11.0.x-11.x version prior to these thresholds
  2. Identify Flash Player version on Mac
    Open Finder, navigate to /Library/Internet Plug-Ins/ or ~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/, locate Flash Player.plugin, right-click and Get Info or run: ls -la /Library/Internet\ Plug-Ins/Flash\ Player.plugin/Contents/Info.plist to read CFBundleVersion
    Affected if Version is 10.3.x before 10.3.183.61, 11.1.x before 11.1.111.43 or 11.1.115.47, 11.2.x before 11.2.202.270, 11.6.x before 11.6.602.167, or any 11.0.x-11.x version prior to these thresholds
  3. Identify Flash Player version on Linux
    Run dpkg -l | grep flash or rpm -qa | grep -i flash, or check the version file at /usr/lib/flash-plugin/libflashplayer.so using: rpm -qf /usr/lib/flash-plugin/ or dpkg -S /usr/lib/flash-plugin/
    Affected if Version is 10.3.x before 10.3.183.61, 11.2.x before 11.2.202.270, or any 11.x version below 11.2.202.270
  4. Identify Adobe AIR runtime version on Windows or Mac
    On Windows: Check Add/Remove Programs for Adobe AIR, or locate C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe AIR\versions\AIRVersion.txt. On Mac: Check /Library/Application\ Support/Adobe/AIR/versions/ or run: defaults read /Applications/Adobe\ AIR.app/Contents/Info CFBundleVersion
    Affected if Version is below 3.6.0.597
  5. Identify Adobe AIR SDK version
    Check the AIR SDK version by locating the SDK folder (often in C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe AIR SDK or ~/AdobeAIRSDK), and open the readme or version file, or run: adt -version if installed
    Affected if Version is below 3.6.0.599

You are affected if any installed Adobe Flash Player version falls within the vulnerable ranges listed, or if Adobe AIR runtime is below 3.6.0.597 or Adobe AIR SDK is below 3.6.0.599.
