        2. Security.allowDomain(...) should only be used in a tightly focused manner

        4. "LocalConnection" should be configured to narrowly specify the domains with which local connections to other Flex application are allowed

        5. "Alert.show(...)" should not be used

           Vulnerability

        The flash.system.Security.exactSettings property should never be set to false

          This rule is deprecated, and will eventually be removed.

          Why is this an issue?

          The Security.exactSettings value should remain set at the default value of true. Setting this value to false could make the SWF vulnerable to cross-domain attacks.

          Noncompliant code example

          Security.exactSettings = false;
          

          Compliant solution

          Security.exactSettings = true;
