CISA Adds Flash Player Flaws to Catalog

September 17, 2024

CISA (Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency) has recently added four new vulnerabilities to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog. These vulnerabilities, identified in Adobe Flash Player, have been included based on evidence showing active exploitation in the wild. The vulnerabilities are CVE-2014-0497, CVE-2013-0643, CVE-2013-0648, and CVE-2014-0502, each relating to issues such as integer underflow, incorrect default permissions, code execution, and double free errors in Flash Player. These types of vulnerabilities are commonly targeted by malicious cyber actors, presenting significant risks to the security of the federal enterprise.

The addition of these vulnerabilities to the catalog is in line with Binding Operational Directive (BOD) 22-01, which was established to address and reduce the significant risk posed by known exploited vulnerabilities to federal networks. BOD 22-01 mandates that all Federal Civilian Executive Branch (FCEB) agencies must remediate vulnerabilities identified in the catalog by the specified due dates. This measure is part of a broader strategy to enhance the security of FCEB networks and prevent exploitation by cyber threat actors. CISA will continue to update the catalog as new vulnerabilities meet the criteria for inclusion.

While BOD 22-01 applies specifically to FCEB agencies, CISA strongly recommends that all organizations, public and private, prioritize the timely remediation of these cataloged vulnerabilities. Given that these vulnerabilities are frequently exploited in cyberattacks, timely patching and mitigation are critical to reducing the exposure of organizational networks to malicious activity. The catalog serves as an essential resource for cybersecurity teams, providing up-to-date information on vulnerabilities that pose a significant risk to operational security.

CISA’s ongoing efforts to expand and update the Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog highlight the agency’s commitment to strengthening cybersecurity across critical sectors. The catalog serves as a proactive tool, encouraging organizations to stay ahead of cyber threats by prioritizing the remediation of high-risk vulnerabilities. By addressing vulnerabilities like those found in Adobe Flash Player, organizations can significantly reduce their risk of compromise and enhance their overall security posture.
