I read about security issues in using GetURL.Is this only with javascript? If I use the getURL to open a blank window where all the HTML and swf are on the same server are those pages and swfs safe from injection, etc? I'm working in Flash 8 with AS 2.0.
View 3 RepliesI am getting a strange problem while I am making my release build swf.The swf is supposed to make some internal server calls and then display the data and also play it.When I make a release build swf and excute it, while making server calls it throws exceptions likeSecurityErrorHandler: [SecurityErrorEvent type="securityError" bubbles=falsecancelable=false eventPhase=2 text="Error #2170: Security sandbox violation:file:///Path to the swf/WebPlayer.swf cannot send HTTP headers to **Method Name to bring data from the server***]And after this nothing can be done as everything depends on the data from the server..I have updated my cross-domain.xml on the server to support the master-only policy file but that also didnt ..My cross-domain.xml is
<cross-domain-policy>
<site-control permitted-cross-domain-policies="master-only"/>
<allow-access-from domain="*"/>

I haven't fully grasped how the flash security model works, and now I've ran into a problem. I have a base SWF that loads a game loader swf, which in turn loads the actual game.What I'm trying to do is taking a current bitmap snapshot of the running game. This works fine before the loader swf has loaded the game. When the game is loaded, I get a security violation because the game has images pulled from facebook. Is this something that can be solved on my end, or restricted by security in the game swf?
View 2 RepliesI'm having trouble with an AS3 AMF RemoteObject request that is hosted on App Engine. I have a crossdomain.xml file in the root of the domain, and also one at the remoting endpoint.Here are the contents of the root crossdomain.xml:

Loading the swf file and testing it on my machine works just fine... I think that may have something to do with me having the debugger version of Flash Player. When I push it up to App Engine to make it public, other clients access it and get a Client.Error.MessageSend Channel.Security.Error error Error #2048 url: http:[url].......I am using Flex 4 beta, and the App Engine Python runtime. I have tried full wildcard in the crossdomain, and even accessing the data endpoint at a relative URL so as to avoid this error.
My SWF resides on domain A, is loaded by a web site on domain B and is trying to ping URL (URLLoader.load) on domain C. But I am getting "#2048: Security sandbox violation" .. why? Of course I have read the manual, I saw the security white paper but I do not understand it. Don't you know any blog or such where it is explained for dummies? With lots of examples and maybe a table showing what is allowed and what is not?

I'm a designer considering creating a video project with Flash. I've read some of the security threads on the board, but they are way over my head. I will have a simple Flash file with text and a dozen imported FLV video files.If I use the "protect from import" option, will that keep the videos from being stolen from within the swf? Or, is that just a mediocre hurdle that can be easily overcome by someone wanting to dig into my file?
View 4 Repliesi wrote a flash script that is embedded into an html page. The flash script (AS3), needs access to the users microphone and camera. I've seen on other websites when they want to use my camera/ microphone flash automatically pops up a box asking the user to permit.
In my case, even though in my global settings for my webpage it says "always ask" under permissions, flash doesnt ask me anything and just blocks the script from accessing the microphone. The script loads fine, just doesnt prompt for access and the user has to manually right click, and go to settings and put setting to "allow".
Searching for this topic on google is rather difficult as there is too much irrelevant stuff with the same keywords.
Edit: This is how i embed just in case im not doing it right.

I've got a Flash movie, loading data from an external URL. In fact, it's a RSS reader inside a banner.Everything works perfectly when the Flash movie and data URL are on the same domain. However, if the Flash movie is on another domain, Flash security kicks in.The manual says that I can allow a domain trough Security.AllowDomain()
system.Security.allowDomain("http://www.mydomain.abc/")
xmlData = new XML();
xmlData.ignoreWhite = true;

View 1 RepliesI have a Flash swf file on one of my pages that's causing a Security sandbox violation. Basically it's trying to load a php file to do some things with mp3 files on my server. It works just fine, unless someone types in the url without the 'www' in front of it.
[URL]
the problem occurs. It still resolves to my site, but the domain appears different to the Flash app, and so the error gets thrown.
I have an XML file that my .swf opens and reads from my server. I actually have the .swf call a php file that builds the xml output which works fine. My question is, is it possible for anyone that can see my .swf project on their browser get the path to the php file that it calls?
Can I use POST in actionscript instead of GET when getting a url so I could hide the variables sent?
Is there a header or something that flash sends that I catch with my php file? So i can tell if flash is calling it, or if some user is just directly going to the file to get the information. Or if all else fails, can I have flash create a file on my server that when I call my php file it first checks to see if that file holds the right data before spitting out the xml. When other people link to my flash file on their server, it seems this method might still work seeing as it's my servers flash .swf being called.
I have a swf loading an XML with links to copy and images loading into a swf. When inside the "stars" folder the html page index.html, which loads the swf loads all the jpg and text files fine: [URL] However, when embed a link to the swf file [URL], into the page a folder above the stars folder, which is just [URL]... none of the images load. Nothing loads actually. I figure it's a security issue with sandbox, but I created a crossdomain.xml file and added an allowDomain to my starsFA.swf file.

View 2 RepliesI am loading an external swf file from the same domain into my main flash movie using an absolute path: The problem is that when someone goes to the site without the 'www' in the address: he movie throws a sandbox error upon trying to load the 2nd movie.I have a crossdomain in place set to: <allow-access-from domain="*" secure="false"/>.I also have: Security.allowDomain("*"); in the document class of the main moie.I realize I could use a relative path to load the movie instead of the absolute path, but shouldn't the cross domain file and/or the allowDomain command take care of the security issues? Is there another workaround besides the relative path?
View 1 RepliesI am building a photography web site with flash and I found a really cool slide show extension plug in (www.slideshowpro.com) were can easily upload and update my portfolio slide shows.when I publish out to HTML, I test it in a browser and I get this warning when I click on the photography page.I read in adoby help and it said flash developers can allow communication between sites with this AS code Security. allowInsecure Domain ("nathan44. slideshowpro.com");so I added this code to my actions layer on the firs frame in "scene 1" and to the actions layer in the photography section. But nothing changed i still get this warning when ever I publish out to an HTML, when I just preview with control + enter i can view the sideshows fine.
View 4 RepliesI have created an swf that manages to get all urls assigned to the buttons. When I publish the file I set the global security to allow that file to work and all links work. My question is when I transferred the html and swf to a new pc none of the buttons worked I was not even given an option to update global security settings by adding a new location. If I was to load this swf to an ftp media server is that the location I need to allow and can I only do this from the original PC where the file was created as transferring it seemed to make the buttons not do anything.
