The version of Adobe Flash Player installed on the remote Windows host is equal or prior to version 23.0.0.205. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :
Multiple use-after-free errors exist that allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to execute arbitrary code by convincing a user to visit a website containing specially crafted Flash content. (CVE-2016-7857, CVE-2016-7858, CVE-2016-7859, CVE-2016-7862, CVE-2016-7863, CVE-2016-7864)
Multiple type confusion errors exist that allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to execute arbitrary code by convincing a user to visit a website containing specially crafted Flash content. (CVE-2016-7860, CVE-2016-7861, CVE-2016-7865)
