The remote host is missing an update for the 'flash-player-plugin' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2017-0014 advisory.
Vulnerability Insight:
Adobe Flash Player 24.0.0.194 contains fixes to critical security
vulnerabilities found in earlier versions that could potentially allow
an attacker to take control of the affected system.
Adobe is aware of a report that an exploit for CVE-2016-7892 exists in
the wild, and is being used in limited, targeted attacks against users
running Internet Explorer (32-bit) on Windows.
This update resolves security bypass vulnerabilities (CVE-2016-7890,
CVE-2017-2938).
This update resolves use-after-free vulnerabilities that could lead to
code execution (CVE-2016-7872, CVE-2016-7877, CVE-2016-7878,
CVE-2016-7879, CVE-2016-7880, CVE-2016-7881, CVE-2016-7892,
CVE-2017-2932, CVE-2017-2936, CVE-2017-2937).
This update resolves buffer overflow vulnerabilities that could lead to
code execution (CVE-2016-7867, CVE-2016-7868, CVE-2016-7869,
CVE-2016-7870, CVE-2017-2927, CVE-2017-2933, CVE-2017-2934,

CVE-2017-2928, CVE-2017-2930, CVE-2017-2931).
Note that Adobe has dropped Adobe Access DRM support from all their
Linux releases since their 11.2 release series (which no longer gets
security updates), so any Flash content protected with Adobe Access
will no longer work.
Affected Software/OS:
'flash-player-plugin' package(s) on Mageia 5.
Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).
