Flash Player Security Sandbox Question
Hi,
We have an SWF file with another SWF file inside of it and a FLV that plays on load.
The address is http://www.inteletravel.com/Movie.cfm
However, we offer independent travel agents specialized sub domains like samgibson.inteletravel.com that are virtually set up. However, with these sub domains only the root blue SWF shows up. The player controls nor the FLV video itself appear.
Ww tried an XML cross domain policy file with no luck even though ithas worked for us with multiple sites in the past.
Any suggestions would be most appreciated.
Thanks.
I just tried the link for FP for ActiveX (Internet Explorer) in Pat Willener's above reply, and the link did not work. Received this reply from Internet Explorer:
Oops! This link appears to be broken.
Did you mean: macromedia.com
I tried copying the url from the Properties of the link, and pasting it into a fresh browser window. Same result.
Is there an updated link available, that works?
Sincerely,
SpaceAdventurer

Adobe AIR skips Flash Player security sandbox
When I installed the first Adobe AIR Showcase demo, I felt
curious about how will it install itself from inside Flash Player
sandbox. So I clicked "install", and it really installed something
on my own \Program Files ! without my confirmation
How can it be possible, I thought Flash Player had a sandbox
but it looks as it adoble is able so skip it.
If it is publicly available (and not a backdoor), I could use
it to install some ActiveX controls my web application needs to
interact with Excel.
I checked the flash player 9 security pdf document, and it
looks as it flash documents should not be able to write anything to
my local disk.

Adobe Flash Player Security pop up during installation.
Hello, I recently purchased a macbook this week. My first apple computer. I was downloading and installing a widget, astroids, through apples website and after installation I noticed a dialogue box appeared. It said "Adobe Flash Player Security" as the title and then it showed where the downloaded file was located. I looked in the folder where it said it should be located but nothing was in that folder. I couldn't close the message box, it just stayed their with my mouse pointer doing a circular pattern. I eventually restarted my computer because I didn't know how to get rid of it. My question is should this be something I should be be worried about? Is everything ok with my macbook? Sorry if this sounds silly, I am new to owning an apple computer and trying to get familiar with it. Thank You.

Remove "flash player security" alert
Is it possible to avoid
“flash player security” alert dialog box.
My project is built in flash 6 but it won’t run under
flash player 8.
It gives security alert dialog box, and client asks me to
remove this dialog box.
Is it possible to remove it or not?
Or is there any documentation available on net stating that
it’s not possible to remove it?:confusedThe answer is inside the same article you quote, page 3:
"Local-trusted: This sandbox has no restrictions. It offers the
same open privileges as all local files were given in Flash Player
7. Any local file may be placed in this sandbox if given
authorization by the end user. This authorization may come in two
forms: interactively via the Settings Manager or noninteractively
via an exectuable installer that creates Flash Player configuration
files on the user's computer."
So you might have the user do something which is a lot more
work than clicking ok in a security alert (I haven't even done it
myself on my machine).
Or you might provide an executable that needs to be
downloaded with at least two more security alerts.
The situation of course changes if you can deliver that
executable in a different form, e.g. via a CD-ROM -
Flash Player security Pop up when using camera and microphone.
Hello Friends
Can any body suggest me how to remove flash player security pop up for camera and microphone through coding.
Thanks in advance.The security pop-up was first introduced with FP7. If you want to bypass it I can name two ways off the top of my head:
1. Regardless of ActionScript version (2.0/3.0) in the Flash authoring enviroment, in the Publish Settings dialogue box, the Flash tab, near the bottom choose Access Network Only from Local Playback Security.
2. Publish your movie as a projector. Both of these techniques will allow to "play" your swf file locally. -

Adobe Flash Player Security on Mac OSX 10.8.5
Hello, I need some help. I keep getting an Adobe Flash Player Security warning every time I try to load Pandora on my Mac. I not sure if this is some form of spyware. I've tried to research it online but I can't find anything with this specific error message. Also I've run a few antivirus/spyware programs, but turned up with nothing. I've never come across it before when using Pandora in the past, so I know it's something out of the ordinary.
Thank you all very much for the assistance.There's a local file "/about/srcdoc" (I'd imagine it's in the Muse-Pandora folder) that's attempting to connect to the Internet. This is a "safety feature" built into Flash Player to prevent malicious files from connecting and downloading a virus. Why they have that for Mac OS I do-not-even-pretend-to-know, but it's there.
Open your System Preferences and the Flash Player pref pane
Click the "Advanced" tab in the Flash Player Settings Manager window
Scroll down to Developer Toos and click "Trusted Location Settings...:
Click "Add Folder..."
Select the Muse-Pandora folder in your Applications folder
Confirm
Close the Manager and retry it. -
Mac Safari "Adobe Flash Player Security" issue
Using Captivate 5.5 for Mac. I've been having sporadic problems viewing my published .htm files in Safari. I always get the "Adobe Flash Player Security" popup on initial load, but before today I could usually just click OK and refresh the browser window to play the Flash content. Today I can no longer view the content in Safari. (Firefox plays the content fine.)
The popup says "To let this application comminicate with the Internet, click "Settings". When I click Settings, my Mac OS Flash preference dialog opens. But the only options available are "Local Storage Settings", "Camera and Mic", "Playback" (which pertains to peer-assisted networking, not local playback), and "Advanced" (which only allows you to delete local files). Just for experimentation, I tried adding my local path as an allowed site in "Local Storage Settings" but it doesn't have any effect.
I don't have any other problems using regular Flash-based websites in Safari. Only my published Captivate files spawn this security popup.
How do I fix this?It worked! Thank you. (Actually, I used the related URL for "Global security settings for content creators" (http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager04a.ht ml#119065) since that URL is intended for local development/testing, whereas the link you provided is for sites on the Web.)
But I'm curious. . . according to Adobe (http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager.html), "Beginning with Flash Player 10.3, the Local Settings Manager supersedes this Online Settings Manager for managing global settings on Windows, Mac, and Linux computers." Yet the page goes on to explain when one would use the online Global Settings. This is very confusing. If the local Settings Manager supercedes the online manager, why would the online manager still be required for certain uses? And why isn't a link to the Global Settings manager provided within the local Settings manager. What am I not understanding? -
Adobe flash player security blocking
The adobe flash player security is blocking mail with the message /about/srcdoc is trying to communicate with this interner-enabled location static.adsafeprotected.com
How do I get rid of this?IanGCou wrote:
How much of a risk is it unblocking?
If you select a single site to allow, not much, as long as it's a trusted site and you're careful about what you open there (in this case it being mail, you need to use your own discretion). If you set Flash Player to allow ALL sites, then you may be opening yourself up to anything from spyware to outright viruses. -
Flash Player Security error when publishing HTML files
I am new to the Captivate world and am just in love with the
features - but I have been having a very difficult time publishing
my "movies". I have 8 files that are all called upon in one movie
(like a table of contents). I have abandon the though of publishing
each as an EXE file - and have decided to go the HTML route.
However when I try to run the published HTML file I get an Adobe
Flash Player Security error - saying "Adobe Flash Player has
stopped a potentially unsafe operation." It then says that the
local SWF file is trying to communicate with the Internet-enabled
HTM file.
Can someone please tell me what this means? We are using
Captivate for distance learning as well as internal - so I can't
know for sure what the end-users will be using when the files are
used.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.Welcome to our community, Rachel
Where are you running your movie from? If you are planning on
running them from a server, there should be no need to worry about
your end user seeing those messages. However, if you are planning
on each user copying them to their own hard drive or if you are
running from a CD-ROM, you may need to perform some trickery to
make them work without issue.
The message is occurring because there are links in some of
the files that point to internet resources and the Flash player is
seeing that as a potential security risk. So it is blocking the
action until you pat it on the head and assure it the world will
not, in fact, end if it shows you the content.

Getting Flash Player Security Error when running extension.
I had created a nifty utility which uses a Flash interface. It worked fine in CS3, but after upgrading to CS4, I keep getting the Flash Player Security Error popup when I run it.
=======================================
Adobe Flash Player Security
Adobe Flash Player has stopped a potentially unsafe operation.
The following local application on your computer or network:
C:\Program%20Files\Adobe\%20Photoshop%20CS4\Presets\...\ChopBot.swf
is trying to communicate with this Internet-enabled location:
<unknown>
To let this application communicate with the Internet, click Settings.
You must restart the application after changing your settings.
[OK] [Settings...]
In CS3, opening the Global Security Settings panel and adding the script's path to the trusted locations would fix this problem, and the utility would work going forward.
In CS4, however, adding the script's path to the trusted locations seems to have no effect.
I am using the ExternalInterface class in the Flash UI to communicate to and from the JavaScript.
Has anyone else run into this issue and found a solution?

Remove Adobe Flash Player Security Alert without changing the browser settings
Dear all,
I m using captivate for doing my eDemo, however I am just be
alerted by Adobe Flash Player Security and be requested to update
the Internet>Settings of the browser. As I found that some
companies most likely are using Captivate for their web application
demonstration (like HSBC,
HSBC),
but they dont have any Adobe Flash Player Security prompted. Would
anyone know how to remove or skip the alert? Thanks for your help!

Flash Player Security Settings per your D:/ drive...
Hi,
For anyone who read my post earlier in the day, I apologize for the redundancy; this is a new issue for me.
I've been working on an e-learning product using Flash Builder; it was developed to be web-based, but the client has changed the requirement and now they have requested a stand-alone dvd drive-based deliverable.
The project consists of a Main.html(launched per autorun.inf), Main.swf(which loads into Main.html no problem from the disk), and multiple .flv files - so Main.swf loads into Main.html from D:\ , but none of the .flv's will load. However, once I trust D:\ per going to the [Flash Player Settings Manager>Trusted Location Settings>add my D:\ drive to the Trusted File or Folder Location], everything runs well.
My questions are:
Why is that an issue?
Is there a way around it?
What am I doing wrong?
Since everything is fully contained and running locally from the D:\ drive, why does the Flash Player need me to trust that device in order to run the content? I t seems completely counter-intuitive which leaves me boggled.
When I build a release, everything works perfectly locally(without trusting the C:\ drive(obviously)), once I burn the files to disk the external content won't load until trusting D, and what's even MORE, when I copy the content "burned to disk" locally, it won't play either until I trust the C:\ drive!!
Little help, please? I know I'm doing something wrong, but I can't find anything online.
Thanks in advance,
~ChiplehHi mocca,
Thanks again for your reply. You are giving me things to re-think about, I thought about all these options yesterday, but now that you mention them as the solutions, I will re-think with more gusto. A few things I'm still dwelling on:
Why is that an issue?
Because the users system settings should always override anything that comes from a disk... Same with any programm on my computer, if somwhere from a network/external drive wants to open my browser without my consent, why should it?
Agreed. It should not. However, per the paradigm of my project on disk, the user launches the browser, the browser loads the swf, but the loading of all the other content is restricted. That seems counter-intuitive - since the user has already launched the main app, they obviously trust the app to run on their box, but they now have to go through an extra 'security layer' step in order to load the accompanying content.
As per publishing to Air, I tried yesterday and Flash Builder kicked all sorts of errors. I'll try publishing to air more today...
In the mindset of the great John Peterman: "Ah, the 'client changing requirements', where the client's expectations are high, the knowledge of the "level of effort" is low, and the process is terribly frustrating."
Thx again,
Chipleh -
Adobe flash player security problem
Hello bodies
I have problems with ExternalInterface and navigateToURL,
How can I avoid flash player to show this box?
when I've already enabled this setting
Also I've checked some flash banners and disabled options above for test and they worked fine anyway
I want to make my script work even if users has disabled those options above.
I don't want when using ExternalInterface flash player to throw these alerts also
Please HelpFor you to override that securioty alert you need to add the location to that second interface you showed. So you could add the "C:\Documents and Settings\George\Desktop" to that lcurrently empty list.
That security applies to local file usage. So if you have this file deployed on the internet, people should not have the issue you are having.
