Security issue with NetStream.appendBytes() and BitmapData.draw()

Iuse appendBytes to continuously and seamlessly stream video data into a netStream. since we're NOT playing the video files directly from a web domain, there is no meaning to the checkPolicyFile property of our netStream object and therefore - we cannot BitmapData.draw() our Video instance with the netStream attached.
Is there any possibility to get images from the netStream in order to manipulate them on-the-fly?

I ran into the same problem.  Have you managed to find a solution to get around the security violation?

  • Severe Security Issue with Sharing Permissions and Windows

    I recently discovered a severe Security issue with the windows sharing an permission settings:
    I have two users, an admin user and a parental controlled user. On my mac mini, i have a external harddrive connected. On the harddrive, i have three folders, Itunes, Iphoto (Package) and a Temp Folder. I want to share the Harddrive RW for the admin, but only R for the parental user. But the Temp folder should be accessible for RW for the parental as well.
    1. I set the Drive checkbox "ignore ownership" off.
    2. I set the permissions of the drive to admin RW, parental R and Everyone to "no access"
    3. I apply to enclosed Items
    4. I set the permission of the Temp folder to admin RW, parental RW and Everyone to "no access"
    5. I apply to enclosed Items
    6. I go to "File Sharing" in the Preferences and activate SMB sharing for both users
    7. I delete all previous shares
    8. I add the Disk and use the proposed permissions which are admin RW, parental R, Everyone "no access"
    9. I add the Temp folder and use the proposed permissions which are admin RW, parental RW, Everyone "no access" - Funny, there is a new Group called "Temp" created which has custom access on both sharepoints
    10. I connect to the mac over a Windows machine (NTLM auth set appropriatly). Now I try to create a folder on the root of the Disk share, I get a denied message.
    BUT WHEN I GO INTO A SUBFOLDER (eg. ITUNES or IPHOTO), WHICH HAS ALSO JUST "R" PERMISSION FOR THE PARENTAL USER, I AM ABLE TO RW, DELETE AND DO EVERYTHING!!!
    TO RECAPITULATE: THE SHARING PERMISSIONS ARE "R", AND THE FILE PERMISSIONS IN THE RESPECTIVE FOLDERS FOR THE RESPECTIVE USER ARE ALSO JUST "R". BUT THE USER CAN DO EVERYTHING IN THE SUBFOLDERS!!!

  • Security issue with the SGA and multiple installation group.

    Hi,
    Documentation ARE WRONG:
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/rac.112/e10743/preparing.htm#TDPRC131
    # useradd -u 1100 –g oinstall -G dba -d /home/oracle -r oracle

    # useradd -u 1100 -g oinstall -G dba oracle
    The "-g" and "-G" must be exchange!
    In an advanced installation with multiple Oracle users call them ( ora1, ..., orai, ..., oran )
    with multiple OSdba group defined users call them ( dba1, ..., dbai, ..., dban)
    Associate each oracle user to a dba group with the same number and the install group as oracle told it.
    User ora1 group dba1
    User orai group dbai
    User oran group dban
    Now make the software installationS with the group OSinstall ( install) as written in the documentation, in 3 Oracle_home
    Call the oracle_home1, oracle_home2, oracle_home3
    Now check semaphores, Sharedmemory and files!

  • Issues with Exchange Account and Q10

    Well, I hate to be writing this, but I'm hoping that there might be someone out there that can help get past some first day issues I am experiencing.
    The background: I have a long history with legacy BlackBerry devices, and almost as much history with iOS devices. My most recent phone was an iPhone 4S, and I make extensive use of iCloud to keep my iMacs, iPhone, and iPad connected in real-time. The setup worked. It wasn't perfect, but it worked. However, because I used to have a BlackBerry device (most recent the 9930) and because I don't use the iPhone for more than e-mail, iMessage, and phone calls (generally speaking), I decided to give the newest BlackBerry device a shot. So I bought a Q10.
    At this point I feel compelled to say that the hardware is everything I had hoped it to be. It's solid, has a good weight, and appears to be made very well. I have no complaints with the hardware, including the keyboard (a big selling factor for me), so I won't really get into the hardware as the issues I am experiencing all have to do with the OS. Let me also say that I am very familiar with the iCloud integration issues (missing Contact photos and disabled Calendar sync), so I'm not voicing a complaint over those issues in this thread.
    I have connected my Exchange account. I used to have everything in Exchange before I moved my entire computing world over to Apple, and now I keep Exchange around for e-mail. Therefore, I have no contacts, no tasks, no notes, very limited calendar entries, and a massive amount of e-mail on the Exchange server. However, to test everything out, I have added a single contact record so I can see it show up on the phone and be able to test two-way sync between the Q10 and Exchange. And here is where the first issues crop up. It looks like Exchange connects and then disconnects at random. For example, if I open my Contacts on the phone, I see the one contact (called John Doe). Then, as the phone is sitting there with the screen on, the contact will disappear and I will see a "Start adding contact to your contact list" notice on the screen. Then, after a short period of time, the single contact will return. It is important to note that the entire time this is happening, the All Contacts option is selected in the list so that all available contacts are shown. Additionally, I have SIM card contacts turned off, but if I alter the selection in the view list (All Contacts, Favorites, etc.), the SIM contacts will re-appear when I return to the All Contacts view. At the same time, even though I have turned off SIM Contacts in the settings, the setting has reverted to show SIM Contacts. If I turn off the setting again, SIM Contacts still show up. Possibly related: I can't delete contacts on the SIM card, no matter how many times I try, and it now it seems that I can't get SIM Contacts to go away in the Contacts app.
    Likewise, Exchange seems to connect and disconnect from Calendar. I go to the calendar and move day by day to June 15th. I see an entry that I know is from Exchange (I have no other connected calendars at this time), and it is in blue. I change the calendar color to green and the entry changes color, as expected. However, if I jump back to today and then scroll day by day to get to June 15th again, the calendar entry is missing. After a few seconds, the entry re-appears, but it is, once again, in blue. The setting has reverted itself, and it seems like Exchange is completely disconnecting and automatically reconnecting to the phone like I am setting it up again for the first time. Very odd. As I'm typing this, I just saw something odd. I swiped to wake up the phone, and the active frames screen was the visible screen. The calendar app is still running (since I left it running, minimized, when the phone went to sleep) and the date shown in the active card was Jan 1, not Jun 8. Why? The date (and time) on the phone is correct and is set automatically by the cellular system.
    Nevertheless, looking at BlackBerry Hub, I see only two e-mails in my Inbox from Exchange, even though I have roughly a dozen in my Inbox. The rest are filed in sub-folders. And bam! Just like that... I get the "Add Accounts" screen while looking at the Hub. In other words, as I was typing this, I first saw two Exchange e-mails and then, out of nowhere, the e-mails disappear and I see the "Add Accounts" screen as if no account has been connected.
    So... first question: Is anyone else experiencing this issue? This is very strange, and very frustrating. Second: could this be related to the large amount of e-mails I have stored on Exchange, some of which have large attachments? I selected "Forever" as the sync history length. I have my concerns, however, if this is related to loading historical e-mails onto the phone (in other words, the first sync with Exchange) because there is no reason that I can understand that the phone would blank out as if no account was connected at all. I can understand lag and stuttering while the history is syncing, but not a complete disconnect and reconnect. Considering all of the issues with the one and only contact record disappearing, the calendar entry for Jun 15th disappearing and then reappearing with the wrong calendar color, and e-mail in my Inbox incomplete (two of a dozen e-mails) and ultimately disappearing, I feel like this OS just has some real, significant issues.
    Full disclosure: I do want iCloud to work and am a fan of Apple products, but the lack of full iCloud sync support is not a big enough issue for me to want to send back this phone and/or see it fail so miserably. I will happily move my info from iCloud into Exchange, Google, and/or set up a new Exchange account for personal use (Office 365) because I am not wedded to iCloud per se. But, I won't go through that trouble if I can't even get my first account to work properly. It should also be noted that I do have a basic Google account (non-paid) and I had previously attempted to connect to it. However, I was experiencing the exact same issues with contacts disappearing, e-mail disappearing, etc. So I deleted that account. Truth be told, I deleted the Exchange account as well, and then re-connected to Exchange only to test one account at a time. Unfortunately, even with Exchange only, I am seeing very strange and frustrating behavior as described above.
    Help... please. I want this to work but the frustration I am feeling is growing worse by the hour.

    To follow-up with this issue:
    I ended up performing a security wipe on my device. The security wipe finished, and I was about to reconnect with Exchange when I decided to visit our host's web site to see if they had any articles covering the issues I was experiencing. While they didn't have anything specific, I did find a step-by-step guide to connecting a BB10 device to Exchange... and right there at the end, it said "Do NOT enable memo sync."
    I contacted support, and the rep told me that OS 10 has an issue with memo sync and it can cause all sorts of unpredictable behavior. Now, whether or not this is accurate I can say this: So far, the device is not disconnecting and reconnecting like it was before. Problem is, is this a result of not enabling memo sync, or is this a result of the security wipe?
    I may have overlooked it, but I don't recall reading anything about that anywhere else. I'm tempted to try re-enabling the memo sync to see if everything blows up again. At least that way I can see for myself if the memo sync is a real issue. Of course, perhaps it's an issue with SherWeb (our host) specifically. Hm...
    Anyway, for those that were interested, and for those that may come along in the future with a similar situation, the strange behavior that I first reported is no longer happening. I just don't know if it was a result of a security wipe or a result of not enabling memo sync with Exchange.

  • Issues with iCloud synchronisation and contacts over two or more devices.  iTouch and iPad2 sync with different results from iMac.  Thoughts?

    Has any one experienced issues with iCloud synchronisation and contacts over two or more devices? The primary machine is an iMac running Lion. Address Book was created from vcf file (backup of address book prior to moving to iCloud). iTouch replicates Contacts just fine and matches the Address Book on the iMac. The iPad 2 does not showing only 123 contacts where there should be 200. I have turned off iCloud on both devices thus erasing the iCloud content of both devices and staring from scratch with both devices with identical results. Even turned off iCloud on the iMac and erased the Address Book and rebuilt with the same results. Anyone have any ideas or suggestions? I am going nuts.....

  • Security issues with Lion

    Anyone know what the real deal is with OS X Lion security.  I've heard lots of things about how the recent Blackhat conference in Las Vegas said that Apple's security was not as good as Windows 7's.  Anyone know anything about this?  Thanks in advance for any feedback or input.

I don't understand why it would cause security risks when it is supposed to be a patch to fix them?!  Is it safe to go ahead and open/install?
    Could that be why Apple has released Java for OS X Lion 2012-002 here: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1515 ?

  • Security issues with connecting pdf to database

    I have a pdf form that is being called from a webform as part
    of a web application. The PDF has two dropdown lists that I was
    populating from a SQL Server Database. I had created a special user
    that had select access only to the tables for the dropdowns.
    My question is are there any known security issues with
    regard to allowing a pdf to connect to a database this way. The PDF
    is being called from a secure connection but I don't know if
    opening this database connection to populate these dropdowns
    exposes a security hole of any sort. If it does, do you have a
    solution to make this secure? I am asking because another developer
    on the project brought up the issue of this design creating a
    security risk and I haven't been able to find anything online
    discussing it either way.
    Thanks!

  • Security Issues with 8.1 Pro

    I have had several security issues with Windows 8.1 Pro.
    I am curious if the following apps should be loaded by default:
    CheckPoint.VPN
    JuniperNetworks.JunosPulseVpn
    SonicWALL.MobileConnect
    F.vpn.client
    These programs are installed on a fresh install of Windows 8.1 Pro but I do not think they should be.  They are present prior to the install of any 3rd party programs or apps.
    Thanks

    I found them in my firewall list on my Windows 8.1 Pro installation and posted a question on a forum as well, though I don't think it was here.  I don't believe anyone ever answered.
    It looks as though these are parts of the bundled virtual private networking clients.
    Note, for example, the "distributed by Microsoft as part of Windows 8.1" wording on this page:

  • Privacy/Security Issue with Adobe Flash 10

    Not sure if anyone has noticed this or not, but there is a
    bizarre (if minor) privacy/security issue with Adobe Flash Player
    10. I came across it while attempting to upload a file to Flickr.
    Previous versions of AFP do not exhibit this problem.
    Specifics: using Firefox 3.x, Vista.
    The problem: When Flickr calls the "open file" dialogue in
    Flash 10 (in order to upload files) via the "Upload Photos and
    Videos" link, at the bottom of the dialogue, to the right of the
    "File Name" box, sits a common UI element that brings up a dropdown
    menu of what appear to be (or at least are supposed to be) recently
    viewed or downloaded or accessed files. Actually I'm not sure how
    Flash 10 compiles or accesses this list of files, but at any rate,
    a list of files come up.
    The problem is that, as far as I can tell, the list of files
    that come up reference a long list of files, some that are very old
    and that no longer exist, and that there is no way that I can find
    to clear the list. This is a minor security/privacy issue, as
    generally there should be a way to prevent a dialogue from
    displaying a long list of past-accessed files by clearing a cache
    somewhere or other -- imagine if it was impossible to clear the
    history of a web browser, for example -- this would be considered a
    pretty significant privacy issue. I have tried everything from
    flushing the browser cache to uninstalling and reinstalling the
    browser to uninstalling and reinstalling Adobe Flash to using the
    Flash Settings Manager to clear out the Flash saved sites to
    turning off Vista indexing to clearing out Vista's Recent Items
    list. None of these actions did anything to clear out this list of
    files. I can find no references to these files anywhere when I use
    Vista Search (with unindexed and system files searched as well),
    and I can find no reference to the files anywhere in the registry
    (I checked just in case Flash 10 was storing this index in some
    really bizarre place.) I've linked to a screenshot below of what
    I'm talking about -- most of the files listed below were deleted a
    long, long time ago, and so I have no idea why this dialogue refers
    to them.

    Is there a simple work-around for this that I'm unaware of?
    Even if there is, there needs to be some more obvious way to clear
    out this list. Where is this information being stored, and what
    criteria does this list use to "put a file on the list"?

    Thanks for putting me on the right scent. That's what I'd
    originally thought, too -- it's just that the file-> open dialog
    was giving an entirely different list of files with other
    applications, so I assumed that it must be Flash that was the
    culprit. Turns out the reason it was different with Flickr was
    because it was restricting the file results via a long string of
    video and picture filetypes that are compatible with the Flickr
    service.
    It turns out the information I'm looking for is buried deep
    within the registry. The only way to clear out this list of files
    is to delete the following key (or specific subkeys):
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\ComDlg32\OpenSavePidl MRU
    Seems more than a little stupid to store such information in
    the registry if security is your concern. Vista beguiles me
    sometimes.

  • Issues with illustrator 10 and windows 8

    any known issues with illustrator 10 and windows 8...version worked fine on windows xp....new computer with windows 8....now cannot seem to operate. Loads, and shows access but will NOT start up. help ! thanx ttp74

    AI 10 is now 10 years or so old and was never tested on nor designed for Win 7 or Win 8. You should simply assume it's not compatible and will never run properly. feel free to spend your time with the compatibility modes and al lsorts of hacking with the security stuff and otehr settings, but to be honest, it will probably be a waste of time.

  • Apple Support admitted an Issue with WEP authentication and some Routers

    After reading many posts here and other places I logged a service call to Apple support. With the particulars: AT&T U-verse 2 Wire router would not connect with WEP would connect with Security disabled. I wanted a call logged before I went past the return time
    I got a call back immediately after a few basic questions I was passed to a product manager for ipads, it seems connectivity issues are taken seriously.
    The upper level support said there were known issues with some routers and WEP security we steeped through changing the security and it works fine now.
    Bottom Line:
    Apple knows there is an issue with some routers
    They were very helpful and acknowledged the issue.
    He even stayed on the line while I reconfigured one of my Windows PC to make sure it connected to the new settings
    I suggest to all to log a call and get a tech support involved before taking the iPad to the local store
    They certainly new their are some connectivity issues. If that does not work you can always return it.
    He did not admit it was a Apple issue and did not commit that Apple was working on it but it is something they are aware of.
    So skip the Apple store got right to tech support.
    Just my 2 cents.

    "But folks need to go straight to tech support. I live in oz, so it will be interesting to see if they help me.. or not.. but if support gets inundated they will fix it or have a massive recall (not likely on the latter)."
    Can't agree more. I used to manage a tech support department and it is all about the numbers. No matter how many forum entries the issues that get addressed are dictated by the reports.
    So for those that are buying new routers contact Tech Support first even if you end up getting a new router the call is logged that will get Apple's attention.
    People that are not familiar with post launch processes have no idea how things that need to get corrected and enhanced are dictated by support requests

  • Security issue with unlocking my iPhone 4?

    I'm not sure if anyone here will be able to help me but I am trying to get my iPhone unlocked with AT&T. I bought my iPhone on contract through AT&T in December 2010. My account is in good standing. I paid my ETF, it's technically eligible to be unlocked. I called AT&T on April 9th for an unlock and it's now April 19th and still no wordd from them. I've called several times and they won't tell me what's going on other than that "there is a security issue with unlocking my iPhone and the issue is with Apple, but they are working on it." From my understanding, all AT&T needs is the unlock code to enter into the system and unlock it from there. I don't know what security issues could possibly exist that would create a problem. The only thing I can think of is that when I orginally bought my iPhone it turned out to be a lemon and had to get it replaced the day after I bought it. I did this through an Apple store since it was around Christmas. The IMEI number on my phone doesn't match the one AT&T has on file, but that shouldn't matter? I gave them the right IMEI number that is on my current phone. Does anyone know what "security issues" can exist when it comes to unlocking an iPhone 4?

    Don't stress over the words used by the customer service people at AT&T. Half of them don't know what they're talking about more than half the time.  You are probably correct in that it has something to do with their database being inaccurate. 
    Give it a few days, then contact them again and ask for it to be escalated.
    Ignor rNair. The idea that Apple made it mandatory for AT&T to do anything is complete and total bunk. (S)He has no idea what (s)he's talking about
