I saw the light:  the host application is where the FlashPlayer is embedded, 
and that will never be the movie that called _loadMovie_.  Both these SWFs 
have the same host application.

[Flashcoders] ExternalInterface - callbacks from guest to host application

2008-06-03 Thread Gerrit Grobbelaar
When using the ExternalInterface, can the host application be a Flash movie as 
well?

I'm trying to make callbacks from the guest movie (loaded with the loadMovie 
API) back to the host Flash movie, but no luck mimicking what is done when 
the host application is HTML/Javascript for example.

Any ideas here?  Any pointer in the right direction is appreciated.

Thanks,
Gerrit

lol, of course, obviously that too, I wasn't paying attention there for a 
moment.  Good think you pointed that out :)

Thanks,

Re: [Flashcoders] Flash Player security hole

2008-05-28 Thread Gerrit Grobbelaar
The UPDATE section here:
http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/29386/exploit

states that website hacks let the pages forward to the malicious Flash files.

So unless you haven't compiled a malicious SWF yourself (which I'm not up to 
speed yet how to do) you are only vulnerable if your site is hackable, 
forcing code onto your site, e.g. via SQL injection, to redirect to malicious 
SWF files hosted elsewhere.

Thanks,
Gerrit
