Flash Player by updating the affected Adobe Flash libraries contained within Internet Explorer 10. Technology mitigation is listed as:
- In a web-based attack scenario where the user is using Internet Explorer 10 for the desktop, an attacker could host a website that contains a web page that is used to exploit any of these vulnerabilities.
- Internet Explorer 10 in the Windows 8-style UI will only play Flash content from sites listed on the Compatibility View (CV) list. This restriction requires an attacker to first compromise a website already listed in the CV list. An attacker could then host specially crafted Flash content designed to exploit any of these vulnerabilities through Internet Explorer and then convince a user to view the website.
- By default, all supported versions of Microsoft Outlook and Windows Live Mail open HTML email messages in the Restricted sites zone.
- By default, Internet Explorer on Windows Server 2012 runs in a restricted mode that is known as Enhanced Security Configuration. This mode can help reduce the likelihood of exploitation by these vulnerabilities in Adobe Flash Player in Internet Explorer 10
