How to resolve security sandbox violation (Error#2148) in Flex 3 on XP?

Hi,
When I tried to access an image on c:\ (on XP), I get the following error:
*** Security Sandbox Violation ***
Connection to file:///C:\DBFiles\3.jpg halted - not permitted from http://localhost/test-debug/test.swf
-- Remote SWFs may not access local files.SecurityError: Error #2148: SWF file http://localhost/ullmanphp-debug/ullmanphp.swf cannot access local resource file:///C:\DBFiles\INDSprintOrgChart.pptx\3.jpg. Only local-with-filesystem and trusted local SWF files may access local resources.
at flash.display::Loader/_load()
at flash.display::Loader/load()
It looks like some sort of mismatch on security settings. I have done the following so far (based on what I got by googling....)
1. Flex comipler setting additional compiler arguments: -use-network=false
2. I have added a crossdomain.xml on the source directory with these lines...
<site-control permitted-cross-domain-policies="master-only"/>
<allow-access-from domain="*"/>
<allow-http-request-headers-from domain="*" headers="SOAPAction"/>
However, error is still appearing. How do I fix this for testing on my local machine. I cannot move to a webserver at this time.
Thanks!.

How do I set Security.sandboxType related to flash player? When I try to see it in my application through debugger it says "remote". I think I need to set it to one of the following from the adobe manual pages...
Security.sandboxType has one of the following values:
remote (Security.REMOTE)—This file is from an Internet URL and operates under domain-based sandbox rules.
localWithFile (Security.LOCAL_WITH_FILE)—This file is a local file, has not been trusted by the user, and it is not a SWF file that was published with a networking designation. The file may read from local data sources but may not communicate with the Internet.
localWithNetwork (Security.LOCAL_WITH_NETWORK)—This SWF file is a local file, has not been trusted by the user, and was published with a networking designation. The SWF file can communicate with the Internet but cannot read from local data sources.
localTrusted (Security.LOCAL_TRUSTED)—This file is a local file and has been trusted by the user, using either the Flash Player Settings Manager or a FlashPlayerTrust configuration file. The file can read from local data sources and communicate with the Internet.
application (Security.APPLICATION)—This file is running in an AIR application, and it was installed with the package (AIR file) for that application. By default, files in the AIR application sandbox can cross-script any file from any domain (although files outside the AIR application sandbox may not be permitted to cross-script the AIR file). By default, files in the AIR application sandbox can load content and data from any domain.
Any input on how to set it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Security Sandbox Violation when calling a remote service from a worker

From my application, I make calls to a BlazeDS server, that works fine.
I added a worker that calls the same services on the same server. But then, only for the calls from the worker, I have a Security Sandbox Violation error. I launch the application from FB in debug mode.
This is the message :
Error: [strict] Ignoring policy file at http://xxxxxxxxxxxx/crossdomain.xml due to incorrect syntax. See http://www.adobe.com/go/strict_policy_files to fix this problem.
*** Security Sandbox Violation ***
Connection to http://xxxxxxxxxxxxxx/appstore-admin/messagebroker/amfpolling halted - not permitted from file:///D:/Projects/appstoreClientsNext/MultiAppstoreAdmin/bin-debug/MultiAppstoreAdmin.swf
Error: Request for resource at http://xxxxxxxxxxxxx/appstore-admin/messagebroker/amfpolling by requestor from file:///D:/Projects/appstoreClientsNext/MultiAppstoreAdmin/bin-debug/MultiAppstoreAdmin.swf is denied due to lack of policy file permissions.
What should I do to allow the worker to make remote calls ?

I made some progress on this. There are two different cases :
1) The service you want to access has a crossdomain.xml file
All the workers can access the service without a problem.
2) The service you want to access doesn't have a crossdomain.xml file
Whether you launch from FB in debug mode or you put your application on the same server you are trying to access, only the primordial worker will access the service, the other workers will encounter a security error.
I believe this is a bug. Shouldn't a worker have the same access privileges as the primordial worker ?

Error #2048: Security sandbox violation

I've been developing Flex apps for a couple of years now and feel comfortable with my development environment.
I'm testing out Gumbo in my same environment (new workspace): WAMP based
My test app works fine on my localhost set up... but when I upload the files to my hosted domain server... I get Error #2048: Security sandbox violation.
Specifically:
- I'm invoking an HTTPService by setting the url to a relative path (folder/file in same dir as the swf)
- I set method to POST and useProxy to false
(<fx:Declarations>
        <s:HTTPService id="contentService" url="data/verd_content.xml" method="POST" useProxy="false" resultFormat="e4x" />
    </fx:Declarations>)
- I wrapped the send call in a try / catch block and show an Alert with the error message in the catch... here's what it says
body = (null)

    type = "securityError"

*NOTE: I obfuscated parts of the url for security reasons
I read the other similar posts here about problems like this when using the PHP / Zend set up... but I checked the .actionScriptProperties file and it does not have any URLs in there (like localhost:port#)
I'm not using a service-config.xml file in this project... but I have set up WebORB for PHP servers and use that all the time... so I know how that works...
Is this a bug or am I missing something new in the Gumbo ?
Again: my swf file is in a folder in the webroot on my ISP
also inside that folder is another folder with an XML file in it
I'm setting an HTTPService call using the url parameter on a POST with a relative file path (folder/filename.xml)
changing the url to an absolute makes no difference...
thanks in advance for any help

Sure...
here's the code that contains both the HTTPService setup and the URLLoader setup... like i said in the original post.. the HTTPService call throws the error described, whereas the URLLoader call does not:
private var loader : URLLoader = new URLLoader();
private var req : URLRequest = new URLRequest("data/***dant_content.xml");//path obfuscated
protected function Application_creationComplete():void
    // This works...
    loader.addEventListener( Event.COMPLETE, parseContent );
    loader.addEventListener( IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, contentFault );
    // This does not...
    /* contentService.addEventListener( ResultEvent.RESULT, parseContent );
        contentService.addEventListener(FaultEvent.FAULT, contentFault ); */
    try
        loader.load( req );
    catch (err:Error)
        Alert.show("In Try Catch Error Block: " + err.message);
        currentState='home';
the HTTPService was set up like this: (again, i obfuscate the URLs for security)
    <fx:Declarations>
        <s:HTTPService id="contentService" url="data/***dant_content.xml" method="POST" useProxy="false" resultFormat="e4x" />
    </fx:Declarations>
the parseContent function setup in the event listener justs reads the XML file and uses that data to build an image gallery.
hope this helps (for what its worth: I'm not doing anything serious with Gumbo as of yet due to these kinds of bugs)

SecurityError: Error #2123: Security sandbox violation: BitmapData.draw: cannot access

When we try to print the Google Map API for Flash component, it is throwing the Security Sandbox Violation
SecurityError: Error #2123: Security sandbox violation: BitmapData.draw: http://ps6143:8080/aa/XYZ/Main.swf/[[DYNAMIC]]/1 cannot access http://mt1.google.com/vt/lyrs=m@171000000&hl=en&src=api&x=1&y=1&z=1&s=Gali&flc=x3t. No policy files granted access.
at flash.display::BitmapData/draw()
To avoid this error we tried to use the alternate API provided by library. But that also causing cross domain issue as it loading some 3d library internally which is not able to access our application.
SecurityError: Error #2121: Security sandbox violation: BitmapData.draw: http://maps.googleapis.com/mapfiles/lib/map_1_20_10_3d.swf cannot access http://ps6143.persistent.co.in:8080/dv/SiteOptimizer/SiteOptimizer.swf/%5b%5bDYNAMIC%5d%5d /1http://ps6143:8080/aa/XYZ/Main.swf/[[DYNAMIC]]/1. This may be worked around by calling Security.allowDomain.
at flash.display::BitmapData/draw()
Please help us in resolving this issue.
Thanks & Regrds,

There is no redirect... Charles is a web proxy so it will look completely legitimate to the browser.
According to the help, it's getting the access request from the SWF itself and not the crossdomain.xml file:
In the case of a source object other than a loaded bitmap, the source object and (in the case of a Sprite or MovieClip object) all of its child objects must come from the same domain as the object calling the draw() method, or they must be in a SWF file that is accessible to the caller by having called the Security.allowDomain()method.
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/ActionScript/3.0_ProgrammingAS3/WS5b3ccc516d4fbf351e63e3d118a9 b90204-7d1b.html#WS5b3ccc516d4fbf351e63e3d118a9b90204-7c4a
So the default state accessing a SWF on a different domain is protected, unless that SWF allows some or all domains to access it via the Security.allowDomain() method.

This bug has been around for over a year: SecurityError: Error #2123: Security sandbox violation

Hi,
The bug of 'SecurityError: Error #2123: Security sandbox violation: BitmapData.draw: file:///xxx/xxx.swf cannot access rtmfp://fms4.acrobat.com/cocomo/na2-sdk-xxx/xxx. No policy files granted access.' was first reported in lccs forum over a year ago:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/2803074
But the bug is still around. The bug can be generated by calling BitmapData.draw() on a flash.media.Video object which is attached to a p2p stream. It looks like the solution is to have the publisher to call:
send("|RtmpSampleAccess", true, true)
on the NetStream object _before_ the subscriber calls NetStream.play(), in order to give the permission to subscribers for audio and video streams.
In lccs library, the above permission authorisation happens in WebcamPublisher:
protected function onNetStatus(p_evt:NetStatusEvent):void
if (p_evt.info.code=="NetStream.Connect.Success") {
setTimeout(sendSnapShotPermission, 500);
_stream.send("|RtmpSampleAccess", true, true);
protected function sendSnapShotPermission():void
_stream.send("|RtmpSampleAccess", true, true);
but it doesn't help the problem. In fact, it is not clear to me when this 'snap shot permission' is sent to the subscriber.
One more note: This is not a critisism for the lccs development quality, but rather a question on how ready lccs is for production use. After encountering this bug, I had to go through the lccs code (the open source parts), and found out that the library is not really written, well, carefully, and it is full of temporary quick-n-dirty fixes.
For instance in the above example, sendSnapShotPermission() is called after 500 milliseconds, probably to allow something to happen before calling the method, but how can you be sure that it will happen in 500 milliseconds? Probably,an event listener should have been used. Immediately in the next line, we see:
_stream.send("|RtmpSampleAccess", true, true);
which is a duplicate of sendSnapShotPermission(). many examples like this can be found throughout the library.

Hi Nigel,
Two questions:
1. When the publisher sends the access permission to the subcriber by:
netStream.send("|RtmpSampleAccess", true, true)
, on the subscriber side, what event or function can handle the guaranteed receipt of the access permission? Currently it is possible to draw the incoming stream video upon receiving NetStream.Play.Star and waiting for 5 seconds or so:
public class MyWebcamSubscriber extends WebcamSubscriber {
override protected function layoutCameraStreams():void
// trying the event listener seems to work here.
_streamManager.addEventListener(NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS, onNetStatus);
override protected function onNetStatus(e:NetStatusEvent):void
super.onNetStatus(e);
case "NetStream.Play.Start":
setTimeout(function():void {
// draw the video from the incoming stream here.
}, 5000);
The questions is, which event can let the subscriber know that it has the access permission to the video stream?
2. In WebcamPublisher, why is that the access permission is sent 3 times?
a. Once on receiving NetStream.Connect.Success with 0.5 second delay, as in below.
b. Once immediately upon receiving NetStream.Connect.Success, as in below.
protected function onNetStatus(p_evt:NetStatusEvent):void
if (p_evt.info.code=="NetStream.Connect.Success") {
setTimeout(sendSnapShotPermission, 500);
_stream.send("|RtmpSampleAccess", true, true);
protected function sendSnapShotPermission():void
_stream.send("|RtmpSampleAccess", true, true);
c. Once in onConnectionTypeChange() with 2 seconds delay:
protected function onConnectionTypeChange(p_evt:StreamEvent):void
if ( _streamManager.isP2P) {
_stream= new NetStream(_connectSession.sessionInternals.session_internal::connection as NetConnection,NetStream.DIRECT_CONNECTIONS);
setTimeout(sendSnapShotPermission, 2000);

Error 2142 - security sandbox violation

Hi,
I have a problem when I try to compile my player, I get the following error:
SecurityError: Error #2142: Security sandbox violation: local SWF files cannot use the LoaderContext.securityDomain property. file:///C|/development/Flash/Pathe%20ads/New%20cmpt%20sample%20code/AS3ComponentDemoCode% 5Fv2.1/DemoPlayer3Component.swf was attempting to load http://objects.tremormedia.com/embed/swf/acudeo.swf?rand=949275459.
What's odd is that:
1. I have used Security.allowDomain("http://objects.tremormedia.com/"); in the source code
2. This was working fine the day before last!
I have tried adding a crossdomain.xml file in the folder where I build the player, still no joy.
Can anyone help me with this? I tried throughout yesterday to fix it to no avail. I've even tried installing and building the player on a different machine to double check there wasn't something wrong on my PC.
Any help would be great - I'm tearing my hair out!

Hi Alex,
   Thanks for the Link . I saw the link and have done the same steps as said in that . I have created a crossdomain.xml file in my 127.0.0.1 and i can also see that the policy being accepted in the "C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Macromedia\Flash Player\Logs" . I have pasted the lines in policyfiles.txt below.
    OK: Root-level SWF loaded: app:/main.swf
    OK: Policy file accepted: http://127.0.0.1/crossdomain.xml
   But I still get that sandbox violation error. I have tried the below solutions and none of them worked
       1) security.allowDomain("*");
       2) crossdomain xml in the webroot of the accessing server like below
                    <?xml version="1.0"?>
                     <!DOCTYPE cross-domain-policy SYSTEM “http://www.macromedia.com/xml/dtds/cross-domain-policy.dtd”>
                     <cross-domain-policy>
                        <site-control permitted-cross-domain-
policies="all" />
                         <allow-access-from domain="*" to-ports="*" />
                   </cross-domain-policy>
       3) I saw that adding the Application path in the "C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Flash Player\#Security\FlashPlayerTrust\flexbuilder.cfg" will remove the sandbox violation but this also didnt work
       4) "Project - Properties - Flex Compiler - Additional compiler arguments:" add   -use-network=true and then recompile and post to server
       5) I have also checked the policy file logs
Thanks in advance

Hi everybody who is experiencing this same problem. A little
research online directed me to the following page
http://www.jetbrains.net/jira/browse/IDEA-21996.
Which contains a good explanation why this is happening:
quote:
A SWF file can access one type of external resource only,
either local or over a network; it cannot access both types. You
determine the type of access allowed by the SWF file by using the
use-network flag when you compile your application. When
use-network flag is set to false, you can access resources in the
local filesystem, but not over the network. The default value is
true, which allows you to access resources over the network, but
not in the local filesystem.
So a sollution for this problem is:
quote:
you may specify the following string in "Additional compiler
options" at "Flex Compiler Settings" tab: -use-network=false
Hope this helps all of you experiencing this problem.

Security Sandbox violation, opening links in Flash player

Hi,
I have a swf content and its content served from a content management server say for eg, http://www9.abc.com into the html file which is served from http://qwww9.abc.com The links embedded in the flash were not working, when these links are clicked I get this error when tried with Flash debugger player.
*** Security Sandbox Violation ***SecurityDomain 'http://qwww9.abc.com/' tried to access incompatible context 'https://www9.abc.com/sample.swf'
I had set a crossdomain policy file in a custom location in the content management server for this issue, but with the Flash player 9,0,115,0 this stopped working due to default policy change to "master-only". I will not be able to have this policy file in the root folder of the content management server or have the policy set in the HTTP response header.
Is there anyother solution for this issue, for having the links work without setting the crossdomain policy file?
Thanks in advance...

Security sandbox violation: BitmapData.draw

Hello,
I got this error:
SecurityError: Error #2122: Security sandbox violation: BitmapData.draw: A policy file is required, but the checkPolicyFile flag was not set when this media was loaded.
when I try to draw a frame of a movie that is downloading from another server. Crossdomain.xml is set. Another Jpgs are correctly drawn but only a movie causes an error.
I need to checkPolicyFile but where should I do this? I have no direct access to Loader to set up LoaderContext(true) ...
Thanks,
Michal

I too would love to know how we can pass in our own LoaderContext to set the security domain. I'm receiving the same error after snapshotting a loaded SWFElement bug/watermark.
e.g.
var bug:MediaElement = new SWFElement(new URLResource(url));
var bugTrait:LoadTrait = bug.getTrait(MediaTraitType.LOAD) as LoadTrait;
bugTrait.load();

BitmapData.draw() SecurityError: Security sandbox violation

i am loading and playing a local video file with appendBytes() and when i call a bitmapData.draw() function
below exception comes up.
SecurityError: Error #2123: Security sandbox violation: BitmapData.draw
cannot access null. No policy files granted access.
what should i do???....

Sir i already mention in my last message i test it with both relative and absolute.
Yes i khow relative paths works fine when i do some thing like this
<mx:VideoDisplay x="0" y="0" width="516" height="379" source="../user_data/uploads/cd73502828457d15655bbd7a63fb0bc8/v/1345023450-Action_.flv"/>
bitmap.draw works fine in above case but my scenario is different i am loading a complete video as bytearray before playing and play video from that bytes
private function fileLoaderComplete(event:Event):void
     //Pass the loaded bytes to player
       player.AddVideo(urlLoader.data);
//This is Add video Function in Player.mxml
public function AddVideo(VideobyteArray:ByteArray):void
                if(ns == null)
                    var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
                    nc.connect(null);
                    ns = new NetStream(nc);
                   // ns.checkPolicyFile = true;
                    ns.soundTransform = new SoundTransform(0.0);
                    ns.client = this;
                    ns.addEventListener(NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS, nsStatus);
                videoData = VideobyteArray;
                GetTags(videoData);
                ns.play(null);
                ns.appendBytesAction(NetStreamAppendBytesAction.RESET_BEGIN);
                ns.appendBytes(VideobyteArray);
                video.attachNetStream(ns);
                playBar.TogglePlay(true);
i think its a bug in flash sdk 4.6 (Flash Player 11)
bitmap.draw function somehow conflicts with the appendBytesAction or appendBytes

Flex 4 + AIR 2 + mx:Image = Security Sandbox Violation!

Hi there!
I've been using Flex 4 and AIR 2 for some time now and there's a bug (or is it really one) that I always get and can't understand...
Whenever I use a <mx:Image> to load an image (JPG) on a remote server that has a valid crossdomain.xml I get some annoying warnings. Of course, these only are warnings and everything runs fine (except that) but it's a pain to debug an app that has lots of logs like that:
*** Security Sandbox Violation ***
SecurityDomain 'http://static-p3.fotolia.com/jpg/00/07/56/92/110_F_7569245_9hdeWKxUxFRNYuowdSDBNv0YFN9xTJ9 S.jpg' tried to access incompatible context 'app:/Main.swf'
I've googled it and found lots of others folks/threads about this, but none of them provide a valid solution... Seems like it's specific to AIR because some answers/solutions I found work in a basic SWF, but fail in an AIR app.
Is that a bug in Flex?
Am I wrong about the crossdomain.xml?
How could a JPG raise a Security Sandbox Violation?
Tips or tricks, anyone?

AIR has different security rules because it doesn't really have a "domain"
to compare against crossdomain.xml. The warnings are annoying and
misleading and usually indicate that some code is trying to access the
bitmap inside a try/catch block. Usually you can ignore any warning that
doesn't stop execution.

Youtube: security sandbox violation

Does anybody have a recipe for loading the AS3 chromeless player into a Flex application such that you don't get the 'incompatible context' errors constantly?
*** Security Sandbox Violation ***
SecurityDomain 'http://core-dev.thismoment.com/client/Demo.html' tried to access incompatible context 'http://www.youtube.com/apiplayer?version=3'
I've been experimenting all day with Security.allowDomain, Security.allowInsecureDomain, and LoaderContext, but I haven't found the magic combination yet. The main thing I want to do is be able to track the mouse wherever it goes on the screen. Right now, if I mouse over the YouTube player, mouse events stop getting sent to the application, and I get that sandbox violation error in the debug log. It works fine if I run the swf from a file: URL - it just doesn't work when it's coming over http, so obviously there is some sort of Flash security model thing kicking in.

Doors only get opened from the inside otherwise all the bad guys would come
in.
Only the loaded SWF can allow access from the loading SWF.

How to resolve security sandbox violation (Error#2148) in Flex 3 on XP?
