Actionscript :: Flash Security Sandbox - CrossDomain.xml Not Working?
Aug 10, 2009
I have written a simple upload component in Flash, but I am now having issues in uploading due to a Security Sandbox error. I now know this is due to the fact I am uploading from one domain, to another, but 1, this used to work, 2, i have implemented a cross domain xml file by placing it in the root of the domain I'm serving from. There is also the following code at the top of my movie that used to work:
System.security.allowDomain("*"); Here is the plan, upload from admin.subdomain.serveraddress.net to serving.serveraddress.net, but it doesn't work
I get following error: Error #2044: Unhandled securityError:. text=Error #2048: Security sandbox violation: [URL] cannot load data from 192.168.3.5:4854. at TicTacToe_fla::MainTimeline/TicTacToe_fla::frame1() ". I tryed to solve this problem about 3 hours, but I failed I have the file crossdomain.xml in the same folder like my .swf file on the server with this content:
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?
How can I disable crossdomain.xml check when the executing swf has been loaded on localhost?
Error #2044: Unhandled SecurityErrorEvent:. text=Error #2048: Security sandbox violation: http://localhost:2541/xxx.swf cannot load data from http://www.com/xxx.swf.
I want to assign full trust to the HTML5 web application running locally. I want to disable any crossdomain checks.
Some external servers do not provide crossdomain.xml for their hosted SWF files. I am running locally. I want to have full trust for debugging purposes.
How do I do that?
I will not consider AIR as it cannot be used from HTML5 application.
Adding the url "http://localhost:2541/xxx.swf" to "C:UsersArvoAppDataRoamingMacromediaFlash Player#SecurityFlashPlayerTrustu.cfg" did not help.
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
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 have build my entire website with flash and embedded several swf objects (slideshows) into it. everything always worked fine when I published it as swf movie.but now that I want to upload my website an error message occurs saying:Error #2044: Unhandled SecurityErrorEvent:. text=Error #2140: Security sandbox violation: file:///mylayout.swf cannot load file:///slideshow_1.swf. Local-with-filesystem and local-with-networking SWF files cannot load each other.I know that it has something to do with the fact that one of the swf is local with filesystem and the other local with networking. but in my publish settings i told it to access local files only.but i dont really know what your are talking about. i am hosting my website at besides that i have not uploaded it yet. i am just testing it offline.
I'm building a flash project that will be ran with a wrapper of some sort to give flash extra controls. The issue I'm running into is streaming video from a web domain while the .swf is located locally on the users computer. I'd rather not ask my clients to go into adobe's security sandbox and allow it them selves. Is there a way to auto allow a file to communication externally for streaming? I know an Adobe Air app named Ambience that streams mp3s. Anyone know how this can be accomplished?
CS4:I must not grasp the concept, please help: domain1.com hosts a small swf. The swf contains a loader that loads a swf from domain2.com/dir/dir/. All works fine when the loader swf is hosted in domain2.com, however, when accessed from domain1.com I get this in IE:black.swf from domain2 references a variable from the loader swf and plays FLVs.I have tried the crossdomain.xml file at the root of domain2.com in every way that it could be created. Including the "*" method.
1. Does it belong at the root of domain2.com (the remote swf being loaded)? Or at the root of the domain1.com (the small swf with the loader)? (I've actually tried both, neither work)
2. Do I need something in my actionscript somewhere? Right now I don't have anything related to crossdomain in my actionscript. Everything I've read just makes it seam that all you need is the crossdomain.xml file at the root of your webserver.[code]
I have a WebView loading a swf using loadUrl(). My app saves files from the web locally and then uses flash to show them. Keep running into a 2148 error for the crossdomain.xml.around this and access files from the SD Card or application cache somewhere to show in a Flash component embedded into a WebView?
I mixed a.com and b.com in my original post, I'll try to rephrase stuff correctly:
A HTML page is loaded from a.com The HTML embeds a Flash client from b.com HTML contains a Javascript function that makes a connection to a.com, ie the origin of the HTML, not the origin of Flash The Flash calls that Javascript function
Question: Do I need to have a crossdomain.xml in a.com?
Our partners are requiring that we display a news.swf in our flash app outside of its domain. This is causing a mess of sandbox violations. The loaded news.swf is more or less a black box although I dug around in a flash decompiler and what looks like the document class has:
This is also in the constructor of client.swf. I should also note that client.swf is embedded in client.html. So client.swf is loading news.swf and adding it to the display list. Once it is added to the stage it starts spitting out a handful of errors. Run on my local file system:
I'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.
I have a small Flash app that generates a security sandbox violation when flash.net. URLLoader() is called.I have been very careful to check for mistakes in my network/security settings, e.g., -use-network=true, cross-domain policy file, Security.allowDomain(), Security.allowInsecureDomain()
, Security.loadPolicyFile(), etc.
I have been working on this issue all day.I have read every Web page I can find on the issue to no avail.***Objective***1) Upload a SWF file, XML config file, cross-domain policy file, JPG files, [code].........
I am building a project where I use an external API loaded from the web, and I also load files locally. As I understand it, I cannot load both local and external files without causing a security sandbox error.Once I open the API it seems to try and listen to mouse events and such, and causes a securityIts really annoying since I am trying to trace some debug outputs but I can't read them as they get overwhelmed by the error messages.I know I cannot fix it, but I would simply like to disable these warnings. Is there any way?(please don't post solutions to fix the error, I tried all of them)I just want to disable the messages.Here is the error message:
I am working on a existing Flash project (a Flash based game), where I need to integrate social login widget Gigya. I researched and finalized using Adobe Flash Platform Services Social. The problem is, I successfully integrated that in a test Flash file that I initially prepared. But when I integrate it in the source file of my actual Flash project, I get following error:[code]in my code, but it works in my initial test Flash (a minimal file with 2 frames and no extra components), but does not seem to be working for my actual game Flash.
I'm calling remote images with with a Loader and the context has checkPolicyFile=true, images load fine with urls like :url....the only difference being escaped characters, is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?url...
I am using the XML/MX/Syndication libraires and getting a Security Error #2048 error. The error seems unreasonable to me in that there is no forward solution to it on the Internet. I have tried hardcoding security methods in AS 3 and also using a crossdmain.xml file in my root directory to no success. I am about to give up and use pure PHP. There should be a more simple solution to this.
Preface: I'm using Flash CS4 Professional for the Mac, AS3 and Flash Player 10.
I have an RSL (runtime shared library) SWF that contains bundled classes which I store in an online location. I also have another SWF that access that runtime shared library in order to instantiate it's classes and use their methods/functions.
I 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 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?
I'm having a problem where #2048: Security sandbox violation error is occurring. The error is as follows (domain replaced with generics):Error #2044: Unhandled securityError:. text=Error #2048: Security sandbox violation: h[URL].. cannot load data from subdomain.domain.com:50001.I have a perl xinetd-based policy file daemon running on
I have a project which loads different info from xml files. everything were working good until something happened one hour ago... Flex started to refuse to load any kind of information from outer files... no matter where they are store, on server or in a same directory. When i say flex I mean when inside flex i press Run or Debug. He just stops working... I mean throwing error about security sandbox violation. It's also appeared that this is not for one Flex Project, but for all Flex Projects what i have.
I am using loadVars to load an url from a txt file and then passing that to another loadVars.When I test the movie it gives me a security sandbox error,but if I type in the url by hand it works just fine.
PHP Code:
var url:String=""; var myData:LoadVars = new LoadVars(); myData.onLoad=function(){
[code]....
This gives a security sandBox error but if I remove url and type the url in directly it works fine.
I'm using URLRequest to load XML data which works well ....what i'm trying to do is force a secuity sandbox violation so i can test my code but i don't know how to test it so my question is, How do i force crossdomain or some other security error that will trigger the security sandbox violation?
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?
