Adobe Systems Incorporated is a multinational computer software company. Adobe Systems headquarter is based in San Jose, California, United States.
The company has historically focused upon the creation of multimedia and creativity software products, with a more-recent foray towards rich Internet
application software development. It is best known for the Portable Document Format (PDF), Flash player and Adobe Creative Suite, later Adobe Creative Cloud.
Vulnerability description :
======================================================================
A reflected XSS is available in the get3.adobe.com sub-domain.
Through this vulnerability, an attacker could tamper with page rendering, redirect victims to fake Adobe portals, or capture Adobe's users credentials such cookies.
It's also possible to forge a fake adobe's page with this XSS to provide a backdoored version of the flash plugin to users.
This reflected XSS is on GET "re" variable and is not properly sanitized before being used to his page.
Proof of Concept 1 :
======================================================================
A non-persistent XSS (RXSS) in "re" GET param is available in the get3.adobe.com sub-domain.
Tested on Firefox 31.0.
After upgrading Flashplayer with auto-update agent on Windows, a page of adobe sub-domain is automatically opened.
This page is opened to check if the upgrade is successfully ; and return code of the auto-update agent is passed through "re" GET variable.
This numeric return code is reinjected into the JavaScript source-code of the page and can be crafted to make an XSS.
