[Dailydave] Flash JIT and spraying info leak gadgets

[Fermín J. Serna]

Hi,

Back in Fall/2012 I did some research on Flash JIT code generation.
This research and lack of constant blinding resulted on the following
paper (including Win7/IE9 exploit code for CVE-2012-4787) where Flash
could be used for ASLR bypass on IE by spraying ROP info leak gadgets.

Exploit code: http://zhodiac.hispahack.com/my-stuff/security/Flash_Jit_InfoLeak_Gadgets/

I just found today (without notification form Adobe) that Flash 11.8
implements JIT constant blinding. So consider this technique gone but
older versions may still be used for info leak purposes. :)

Enjoy,
