Hi guys,

Sorry for the dumb questions, haven't had a chance to read that 
crossdomain article in detail yet. How exactly does it pose a security 
risk, in my understanding any server side code can do what what Flash 
does without any sandbox restrictions or am I wrong?

I've always assumed crossdomain policy files aren't an impenetrable 
fortress but does it open any additional security risks over any other 
technologies?

Thanks!
Peter
