Secure testing team - Jul 2012 - Bug#681323: libjs-swfupload: XSS via ExternalInterface.call

Package: libjs-swfupload
Version: 2.2.0.1+ds1-1
Severity: grave
Tags: security
Justification: user security hole

Dear Maintainer,
libjs-swfupload contains a XSS security vulnarability that allows attackers to
inject javascript code into the context of the current webpage.
As a Flash applet can be loaded directly (with parameters in the URL), the Flash
applet allows for reflected cross-site scripting. For sites where the applet is
hosted on the same domain as the main website, this is a serious security
concern.
