Prompts security issue

Hello Experts:
I have an issue with one dashboard prompt.
Actually one of the previous developers had developed a prompt, and now I need to change it.
She was logging in using her own username. whereas, I login as Administrator.
Now, rights on the prompt are as follows.
1) nshah ( she is previous developer ) - Owner
And ACL = [Owner=nshah,Presentation server administrators=Full control, NVR Siebel Administrator=Full Control, Everyone=RX]
Now, when I go in edit dashboard -> modify prompt, I dont see the prompt. However it is working for all the users on dashboard.
I compared it with other prompts which are working fine, and ONLY difference i found was "Signature".
It is different for this prompt.
I tried to take ownership of that item, but that didnt worked either.
My questions are
1) Even when i took ownership, why I was not able to modify the prompt?
2) Even when Presentation server admin has "Full control" why cant he see the prompt when we go in Edit dashboard -> modify prompt?
Please help me out.
Thanks.

Vinay,
Its look like some was corrupted in dashboard prompt. One solution is try to rebuild the prompt.
Any way try this.
In catalog manager. open dashboard properties, and click on edit xml . you will see the object xml there. in the second line you will find something like this
<saw:view xmlns:saw="com.siebel.analytics.web/report/v1" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:type="saw:globalFilterPrompt" rptViewVers="200510010" scope="page">
make sure you have xsi:type="saw:globalFilterPrompt" , If not change that value, try reload/restart files. check.

Why is Java Deployment Toolkit (click-to-play) blocked, also the referenced bug is closed and there are no security issues known in Version 7 U51?

I think it is important to block unsecure addons. But if you do so there should be an open bug assigened. The referenced bug for this add-on is allready resolved so I do not know why this plugin is disabled. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=636633
I have the problem that I want to use Secure_Auth that is using the Java Deployment Kit in such a nasty way (via javascript) that firefox doesn't see that the deployment kit should be started. Therefore I will not be asked to allow this plugin always for this web site. Since there is no documentation available how to do this configuration in a config file I am stuck at the moment.
I'm a liitle bit suprised that blocking all versions (even secure versions) is a way to get a good user experience.

That's a bug report in the Blocklisting component, meaning it's a request to add an add-on to the blocklist. The fact that it's marked as fixed means the add-on has been added to the blocklist.
* https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/blocked/p428
* [[Add-ons that cause stability or security issues are put on a blocklist]]
Given that there's no way to disable Click-to-Play for this plug-in (the only options are Ask to Activate or Never Activate), if Firefox doesn't trigger a Click-to-Play prompt, I see no way to use it apart from disabling the entire blocklist. This carries a considerable security risk, as no plug-ins will be blocked or set to Click-to-Play, including known malware. If you're sure you want to go through with it, set ''extensions.blocklist.enabled'' to '''false''' in [http://kb.mozillazine.org/About:config about:config].

Spoof dialog Boxes security issue

Hi all
Any one out there aware of this security issue with Safari
"Secunia Research has discovered a vulnerability in various browser's, which can be exploited by malicious web sites to spoof dialog boxes.
The problem is that JavaScript dialog boxes do not display or include their origin, which allows a new window to open e.g. a prompt dialog box, which appears to be from a trusted site."
I found the above by accident as i was looking up something else.
If you go to Secunia site and try the test you may find that you are also vulnerable.
http://secunia.com/multiple_browser'sdialog_origin_vulnerabilitytest/
The only way i found to stop the spoof dialog box was to turn off enable plug-ins in preferences. However i don't have any plug-ins in my Safari plug-in folder.
I'am running safari 1.3(v312) however it would appear that it also effects version 2.2 of Safari too. Also i have installed the latest update but to no effect. Other browser effect are:-
_ Internet Explorer for Mac
- Internet Explorer
- Opera
- iCab
- Mozilla / FireFox / Camino
My question is, is this vulnerability true, or just a setup
Any comments welcome.

Hi,
The issue is resolved, but I don't know what caused this error.
I uninstalled the java components and BO then I deleted the BO folder under program files, then I deleted all BO entries in the registry.
Finally I reinstalled everything except the service pack and that finally worked. I don't know the cause of this error.

Powerview Cannot connect to the server due to a security issue. The server may not have been able to match the host for silverlight

Hello,
I have a sharepoint 2010 sp1 CU Dec 2011 server with a SQL Server 2012 SP1 CU4 reporting services instance. I am able to open Power View and use it normally when bypassing the ISA Reverse Proxy server. However when going thru ISA I receive the
following Error.
Power View Cannot connect to the server due to a security issue. The server may not have been able to match the host for Silverlight. This error appears after I click yes on an Internet Explorer Display Mixed Mode prompt.
I've seen a couple references to this issue but not much. This one mentions a clientaccesspolicy.xml file but I haven't had any luck with that. http://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/feedback/details/716433/cannot-connect-to-the-server-due-to-a-security-issue-the-server-may-not-have-been-able-to-match-the-host-for-silverlight
Any Ideas? Thanks.
Ryan

Hi Ryan,
Based on my research, the issue should occur due to a by design behavior in Threat Management Gateway (TMG). To work around this issue, you can use SSL between the TMG and the SharePoint Web Server.
Hope this helps.

Other web browsers and security issues?

Since even an Apple KB article recognizes the need for an additional browser and because of Safari's limitations and problems, I'm going to try switching to another browser (most likely OmniWeb and am looking at Firefox, Shira and Opera also though perhaps not as a primary browser) but I'm wondering about their ability to keep on top of any security issues for Mac? (and how do you keep up with security updates?)
Though perhaps unfounded, at least with Safari, I feel that Apple has a vested interest in keeping on top of security issues (for Safari and Java) and I can readily find out about security updates via software updater.

Most of the other Mac browsers have their adherents. They are all good browsers (I have 7 browsers installed to test various web sites and for change-of-pace usage). They all have their strengths and they all have their weaknesses. Only iCab and OmniWeb are still shareware, the rest are now or always have been free (Opera just recently stopped charging for its browser).
I have settled on Firefox as my alternate browser and I use it maybe just a tad more than Safari, but I do switch back and forth between them. The Mozilla foundation is good at getting security updates out when needed. Firefox has a button on the toolbar to check for updates. One nice thing about Firefox is that you can install free extensions which enhance the features available. I have one to supplement tab features, one to control iTunes from Firefox's status bar, one to help me format messages in discussion forums, and one to block ads.
I prefer OmniWeb for doing intensive research because of the way it handles tabs in its sidebar, showing me which ones I've looked at and which ones I haven't, and giving me great flexibility in rearranging tabs, which are viewable as thumbnails or text names (I have had up to a hundred or so tabs open in OmniWeb.
Shiira is good and its fast. I have not checked for updates for a while, but the last time I updated there was still a problem with Shiira kicking you out of logged-in sites when you moved from page to page with in web site. This may have been fixed by now - they were aware of the problem back then.
Camino is a native OS X cousin of Firefox and is also fast, but is not updated as often.
I would stay away from Mozilla or Netscape unless you need all the additional modules they have and which take up hard disk space. Firefox and Camino represent the browser module of Mozilla/Netscape. Mozilla and Netscape have modules for email, irc chat, newsgroups, and for creating and editing web pages. Netscape is a branded and slightly customized version of Mozilla and is not updated as often.
Opera is a nice browser and some use it as their main browser, but I have not seen anything that really stands out for me, but that does not mean it is not worth a look.
I would stay away from abandonware Internet Explorer.
As for checking for updates, several of them, as with many Mac programs, now have a menu item that allows you to check for updates. Most of them also announce their updates on both VersionTracker and MacUpdate.
Happy Exploring.

Security Issue with Apple ID

Today while using my iphone and trying to use facetime for the first time since updating to IOS6, my phone asked me if I wanted to use some email address that I do not have for facetime. What? The message pretty much said that this email address was linked to my apple ID. So I got to work logged into AppleID.Apple.com and saw the email address verified and also saw it displayed as an alternate apple id. Immediately, I changed my Apple ID password and called apple at 1800myapple since that is the number on the website and try to talk to someone that could assist me with this severe issue. Anyway, my iphone went dead and the people on the phone couldn't connect me to anyone because I couldn't give them a serial number to an apple device. I tried to explain to the technicians that this is a problem with my ID and that the alternate ID has access to everything that my Apple ID has access to. Both times the call went nowhere. This is ridiculous. Why can't I talk to a security team? Why is the technician telling me that I can manage my ID from the website, when I know that I am looking at the website and I cannot remove the alternate ID? How did this ID get associated with my account and why did I never receive an email informing me of the change?
Since Apple has other services and not just products STOP ASKING FOR A SERIAL NUMBER AND ASSIST THE CUSTOMER WITH THE ISSUE especially since it is a SECURITY ISSUE.

oh man, I know exactly what you're talking about. i have a relatively easy to guess apple id email and everybody in the world thinks it's theirs... but once I turned on two-step authentication, the emails stopped completely. here's a faq about it:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5570
once i turned that on, whenever they'd want to reset my password, they would get asked for my recovery key, which they don't have, haha! victory is mine.

My account was deleted for security issues. I made a new account, but I can't syncronise my apps with this new account. I bought a new Iphone and would like to transfer the apps ans music on this new one. Can somebody help me?

Why would you make a new account? This will likely cause many problems. Just get you old account enabled.

Frequently Asked Questions About Apple ID
Everything you purchased with the old account will always be tied to that account. You will have to authorize the computer for that account and you will have to update the apps from that account.

Bit locker security issues (easy to crack) disk encryption?

Bit locker security issues (easy to crack) disk encryption?
Problem 1: When the PC run I think its too easy to get malicious users (with usb pendrive) or spyware to get the encryption key (fast and easy)
youtube.com/watch?v=0npTlOq6q_0
Problem2:not resistant with bruteforce attacks
youtube.com/watch?v=zvaJxnvbGic
Problem 3: not resistant with boot hacking
Im using DriveCrypt plus pack and searched security issues in bit locker.The bit locker allow you the bruteforce/dic attack easy.I think It would be much safer 1. (I think the keys stored somewhere that is easily read) 2. Do not just be enough password
need a password+file combination to decrypt the disk. DriveCrypt plus pack use a file+password combination if you know the password but you wont have the file you can not decrypt the disk (protect with bruteforce attack).On system boot protected bruteforce
attak you can crash the (boot).If the boot system crash you can not decrypt the disk just the password you need the file+password combination plus to decrypt it. I am not a programmer but I see the BitLocker ( easy security catches to crack the disk encryption).Im
tested DriveCrypt and I can not get the key that easy (Problem 1). I have not tested it in greater depth just trying to (catches to crack software encryption).

Where is your question, sir?
If the question were "is it easy to crack", the answer is "no". Your videos make use of several assumptions and ingredients and permissions that a normal attacker does not have.
"Problem 3" is not clear, please describe what scenario you are talking about.

Using latest version of fireFox to access Think Central, pages will not load and they say that this is a security issue with FireFox?

Teachers in our district are supposed to use www.thinkcentral.com with FireFox.
Some have no problem accessing the lesson plans.
Most when they login click on a lesson plan and an icon shows up that says loading but never does.
If you reboot the computer and login you can open a page once but not a second time and no other lessons will open.
Think Central support says this is a security issue with Firefox.
I have updated FireFox, all the Adobe, Reader, Flash, Air and Shockwave. As well as Java.
I have allowed the pop ups to the think Central web site.
Any help would be appreciated

Are there any notification icons on the left end of the address bar? If so, please click them to see whether they related to security issues (such as blocked content - shield icon: [[How does content that isn't secure affect my safety?]]) or a plugin requiring permission (Lego-like icon).
Does Think Central have any help pages about this issue? Without an account, it is difficult to explore the issue first-hand.

HFM Security Issue - User can submit a journal by by-passing the approval step even though they are not an admin.

Hi All,
I was wondering if anyone could help me with a HFM security issue on HFM 11.1.2.3 we are facing please?
The problem is that a user can by-pass the journal approval stage and post directly after submitting if Custom4 access control=All is selected.
If any of the other access controls (None, Read, Promote) for custom 4 are selected, the first two steps of the process are possible -
input and approval of the journal are possible but final posting of the journal is not and returns an error that says:
"User does not have the access right to perform this journal task"
The options I have thought for a workaround are as follows:
1.       1. Set up a 3rd user called data poster and remove submit journal role from user 1 (data inputter)
2.       2. Put in place process control and use the various review levels (could be quite time consuming given there is no time left for development)
Have anyone experienced this before and come up with a quick way of resolving this please? It would be very much appreciated.
We have two types of users who are associated with groups in HFM and have the appropriate roles assigned to them to complete their tasks,
they are:
1. A data Inputter (who inputs base data and journals, who has access to create and submit journals)
2.   2. A data reviewer (who approves journals)
The process is as follows:
1.       1. Logon as Data inputter to submit the journals
2.       2. Logon as Data reviewer to approve the journals
3.       3. Logon as Data inputter to post the Journals
We are using the custom 4 member to identify different adjustment types. At the moment we are able to set it up in such a way whereby Steps 1 and 2 can be completed
but once it comes back to step 3, we get an error as follows:
"User does not have the access right to perform this journal task"
(This error comes about when the access control on custom 4 is set to None, Read, Promote)
Custom 4 Access Rights looks as follows:

Why are security issues at bottom of security page

When first using firefox noticed at bottom of security page several security issues.

I'm pretty sure you want the iTunes support forum here:
https://discussions.apple.com/community/itunes
This is for iTunes U (iTunes for Universities).

Can I create a form that doesn't trigger Acrobat's JavaScript disabled / security issues warning?

Hello,
Can I create a pdf that doesn't trigger Acrobat's JavaScript is currently disabled and this document uses it for some features. Enabling JavaScript can lead to potential security issues.
I even get this error when I create a blank pdf.
I'm not using any JavaScript in the form and the nature of the message might tend to be a bit scary to some people since it mentions enabling JS can lead to potential security issues. I basically want to disable the messaging of a feature I'm not even using.
Anyone know if this is possible and if so, how I go about it?
Thank you.

Hi,
I too share your frustration!!
Unfortunately I do not have a complete answer for you.
From the start I must say that Stefan Cameron has been very helpful (http://forms.stefcameron.com/2010/01/14/acrobatreader-9-3-now-available/), however I have not had sufficient time available to deal with the issue (or find a satisfactory resolution).
The original post that Srini shared with you related to an XFA form that had FormCalc and Javascript in it. I will now share with you another situation that is closer to your experiences.
Sometimes where we have a complex solution/form, we often give our users a PDF with instructions and demonstrations. We generate these using Adobe products:
LiveCycle Designer ES to generate the solution/form;
Captivate to record the demonstration (.swf);
Acrobat to package it up in a static PDF.
The screen shots below are from a PDF that includes written instructions and six Flash (.swf) files. The PDF does NOT include fields/form objects and does NOT include any FormCalc or Javascript.
One of the big sells in Acrobat 9 was that Adobe had fully integrated Flash (Adobe product, ex. Macromedia) into Acrobat 9. This mean that .swf files could run natively inside a PDF. Brilliant!!! The website today is still pushing this message, for example:
Now bear in mind that the following screenshots are from a PDF that does not contain any scripting - its sole purpose is to "inform" the user, "look as good as the work I put into it", incorporate instruction and "multimedia" in a "single polished file" and I should be "confident that my audience will be able to view my work exactly as intended".
Not so!!
When the user now opens the form, all looks OK. No warning. They can read the instructions and scroll down to the multimedia (.swf files).
However when the user clicks on the multimedia, the yellow bar appears:
I go through the "trust" process:
And the PDF looks like it is OK, no yellow bar. When I click on the multimedia, it begins to play - yes!! BUT ONLY FOR A SECOND OR TWO AND THEN IT STOPS AND GOES BACK TO THE START - AGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!. I would apologise for shouting, but this is beyond frustration. The work in capturing six screencasts in Captivate, annotating them, publishing to .swf and packaging up in Acrobat has been a complete waste of time. Worse than that I now have several PDFs out there, that do not work. Good advertisement for my business? I don't think so!!
The document that Stefan provided (Managing JavaScript Execution in the Acrobat Family of Products) does not mention Flash/.swf as being a problem. However I would recommend that you go through this document, as it may help you.
So, where to now? I don't know. The previous posts and Stefan's responses have several urls that may help. You should maybe consider logging your experiences as a bug (log at Adobe).
In the meantime good luck,
Niall
UPDATE:
This behaviour (.swf playing for only a few seconds) happens in PDFs where the .swf is inserted as legacy media to run in earlier versions of Acrobat/Reader. In this case Acrobat/Reader is making an external call to Flash Player. Hence the yellow bar. However it does not explain why the Flash video still does not play when trusted.
If the .swf is added into the PDF as Flash media to run on Acrobat 9 and above, then it works without displaying the yellow warning bar.
So maybe any feature of your PDF that calls an external resource is likely to show the yellow warning bar.
