Certain requests from rewritten Flash ActionScript 3 files might be missing the '/f5-w-xxx$$/' part of the path. These requests fail and this could adversely affect the functionality of the application.
Failed requests, broken applications. Security issue: Flash applications could make HTTP request to other domains accessible through Portal Access without checks for cross-domain restrictions.
Request URI in Flash code contains enough "../" parts to leave the '/f5-w-xxx$/' sandbox.
This could be addressed with an iRule in most cases. If you can identify such a request, you can correct the mangled part of the URI within the HTTP_REQUEST event.
Flash ActionScript 3 rewriter now correctly rewrites URLs containing "../".
