Professional :: Adobe Security Update E-mail
Jun 22, 2011
I have at least one user that has received an "Adobe Security Updates" e-mail from Adobe stating, "A critical vulnerability has been identiied in Adobe Flash Player and Adobe Reader". I say at least one user because only one user has forwarded this message to my CIO.Now I know that my user is not running the latest version of these two applications.I can fix that.What I want to know is, why is he getting this e-mail?Anyone know who at Adobe I should contact to find out why?Is this because Adobe somehow knows that he's not running the most current version?Or is it just something that Adobe sent out because it seemed like a good idea at the time.
I push Adobe Flash Player, Adobe Shockware Player, and Adobe Reader when I install Windows 7, and autoupdates are disabled as part of the installation process.I'd rather handle the patching myself so I have a better feel for what is going on across my network.This user was upgraded from Adobe Acrobat 9.x to 10.x.That upgrade was performed manually be someone else.I wonder if THAT is why my uses is receiving this email?

I am deploying Updates via SCUP and SCCM to hundreds of Computers. Fortunately Adobe provides an SCCM Update Catalog for both Adobe Flash ActiveX and Adobe Flash Plugin. But now my Problem: After publishing the Update via SCCM, the client is not supposed to be interfered with the Update Progress (which is working) I figured the Updater works like this: First SCCM checks if a Update needs to be deployed, if this is the case, The Flash Updater begins. First the old Flash Version is beeing uninstalled. But now: if the Client has a Browser Window (IE, or Firefox) open, the Updater is not able to install the new Flash Version and quits with an Error. This leaves the Client PC without any Flash (because its being uninstalled before) How can I prevent Flash being uninstalled due to the Update progress not working while a Browser window is open?

I 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.

I am trying to load external SWFs in my Adobe AIR App. The loaded SWF is trying to access an URL to retrieve some informations via XML. When starting the SWF by itself it works fine. When loading the SWF from the File.applicationStorageDirectory i will get an Security-Error because the loaded App is executed in a local-with-filesystem Sandbox appareantly. First Question: Is there a way to change this? That the loaded SWF is running in a network Sandbox?
Since that first attempt didn't worked i've moved the SWF to the app:// directory.Now i'll get a Security-Error because there is no policy file on the Server available where the XML data should be retrieved. Second Question: Why is the policy file not necessary when running the SWF by itself, but is necessary when trying to load the data from the application Sandbox? What am i doing wrong?

i just wanted to say that there is a security lack with the HTML Protection.If you have a domain e.g.and you protect your rtmp streams with html protection, you can steal streams like this if you know the swf path:Then you can steal easily streams.Asolution is to not allow all subdomains automatically when you enter a domain in the allowedHTML~.txt file. Then you could create a subdomain for the player,

This Adobe Flash Player Security box is really getting in my way. I have a button that acts as a lind to a web page It has this bit of code programmed to it:
button.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,buttonCli ck);
function buttonClick(event:MouseEvent):void {
var req:URLRequest = new URLRequest('http://...");
navigateToURL(req);
}
Can anyone tell me if calling navigateToURL() causes this security box to appear every time if you havent trusted this .swf in your flash settings? i have looked at a way to handle the "link" with javaScript but before I get too deep into something I'm not too familiar with I wanted to see if there was a way to here within flash while avoiding the flash security box.

An Adobe FLEX 4 object loads from a webpage and runs in the browser. The connection between browser and server is secured using SSL over HTTP (HTTPS) with a secure certificate from a valid Certificate Authority.
Can FLEX code read the secure certificate information and retrieve information such as to whome the certificate was issued, when it is valid, and for what domain it was issued, etc. ?

I just finished up my update for my adobe products, and one of the updates was going from Flex3 to flex 3.2. I rebuild my app using flex 3.2 and it worked fine in my browsers. But, II used to load my flexapp in a flash movie and published this movie to an EXE. What used to work isn't working anymore. In my flex project I use the popupmanager to popup custom dialogsscreens: they work in my browser, but they don't popup up anymore when I load the flex app in my flashmovie...

I have a swf, loaded into the non-application sandbox in Adobe AIR 1.5 (the shell is already installed with our users so I can't update to version 2+).On the stage in the swf are buttons, movieclips, animations etc - all of these work fine.When we add an input TextField, selecting this TextField causes a Security Sandbox Violation. Error message (in debug mode) is (I've edited the actual file names):
[trace] *** Security Sandbox Violation ***
[trace] SecurityDomain 'file:///path/to/local/loaded.swf' tried to access incompatible context 'app:/loadingApp-debug.swf'

Greetings: I've used this method many times in the past to create an email form in a movie clip with a "send button" that accesses a perl, cgi script to email text input fields. It worked fine in past versions of Flash, but now I'm using Flash CS3 (v9.0, AS 2.0). I've tried 3 different cgi scripts I found online for this purpose and am sure the configurations for sendmail server & perl bins, etc are correct. All of the other "if" and "else" statements on the button work fine. But I can see a Safari (browser) error message saying POST was not used, but clearly it is. I'm trying to trouble shoot whether the problem is from the flash button or the cgi script. Has something changed in Flash CS3 from previous versions, where I'm certain it has worked before???

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?

I 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?

I am running into an annoying problem with Flash, particularly when I run my program in Debug. Basically I have an AS3 project at some location on my computer (c:/.../Flash/Project/project.fla) with a main script for it (c:/.../Flash/Project/code/projectMain.as). If I try to load in SWF files or JPG files from other places on my computer, I get problems. For example if I try to load files like:
[Code]...
It seems to load them fine. When I click on the movie though, I get this in the output: *** Security Sandbox Violation ***SecurityDomain 'file:///C/.../file.swf' tried to access ncompatible context 'file:///C/.../project.swf And the whole thing stops working. I have read about the security sandbox and allowDomain calls and all that, but I don't see how the domains are different. I am not deploying this to any server or anything, just trying to run the debug swf. I have access to local files by default, right?

Will flash CS5 get an update which will allow it to create .APK files for the android platform, like it was supposed to be able to do for iPhone?(before apple denied that kind ofdevelopment)
That would be a dream come true and would be a really good reason to upgrade to a CS5 license after the trialperiod is over.

how we can update the Flash IDE player, or the player used when testing a movie (sometimes called the Test Movie player)?In the case of CS3, when you download the latest sets of players and replace the "Players" folder, you'll still test the movie in version 9,0,115,0 As you might know, this player version has a bug: When loading an AS2 movie that has a MovieClipLoader into an AS3 movie, the AS2 movie's eventListeners for the MovieClipLoader fail.

I was wondering if anyone knows whether you can update flash display ads dynamically in real-time without having to create a new flash ads? Example being changing text or graphics within an ad without having to make a new one and uploading it to the ad server over and over again. I imagine some sort of actionscript would be involved
