What is CVE-2014-5333?

Adobe Flash Player and Adobe AIR suffer from a vulnerability that fails to adequately restrict the SWF file format. This flaw can be exploited by remote attackers using crafted OBJECT elements, allowing them to execute cross-site request forgery (CSRF) attacks on JSONP endpoints. This security gap can potentially expose sensitive information due to the mishandling of specific characters in callback APIs.
