I actually wrote one from scratch a year ago for a client. My first

 Same as if it was a mc that you hadn't loaded separately.

It is never a good idea to just cast to MovieClip. Cast to the real 
class of the object. Or at least an interface that you know that it will 
implement.


Do note that there are complications regarding having multiple 
definitions of the same class and so on when loading swf files.

[Flashcoders] If a URL starts with “http:// ” will clip always be loaded into REMOTE sandbo x?

2010-06-05 Thread Pavel Repkin
Seems to be a question for a Flash security guru.

Suppose we are loading an external SWF movie with
MovieClipLoader.loadMovie(url:String) Is it safe to assume that if url
starts with http://;, the movie will be loaded in REMOTE sandbox?

We need to tell local SWFs from remote ones to close a security hole.

If you need the context read on.

We have developed a Projector, written in C++ embedding Flash Player
ActiveX. Our Flash application runs inside the Projector. Soon we want to
give our users a way to create plugins for the application. The plugins are
obviously will be SWF movies.

The case I'm afraid of is the following. A bad person creates a malicious
evil.swf pretending it to be nice plugin for our app. In case evil.swf is
loaded from the local file system it is granted an access to the whole
MovieClip tree and Projector API, opening C++ file access operations.

On the other hand if evil.swf is loaded from the internet, remotely, it will
be locked in REMOTE sandbox by Flash security model.

Because of this, we need a reliable way to tell local SWF from remote one
before loading it. And we must not make a mistake.

So again, is it safe to assume that if url begins with http://;, the clip
will be loaded inside REMOTE sandbox?

Yeah, I've had a couple of those in my career, too. Sometimes it's
worth the effort to go after them, but usually not. I think I've had
about US$4,000-5,000 in unpaid invoices over the years, which really
isn't bad.

I don't know how the system works in Ireland, but in the U.S. we have
something called small claims court, for disputes under $10,000. No
lawyers are allowed--just the judge. I'm polite for the first 3-4
months, but after that I'm not going to accept any more business from
them anyway. The mere threat of taking them to court is usually enough
to make them cough up the money.

Cordially,

Kerry Thompson
