Amazon Video and Netflix even used Silverlight for their streaming services When Microsoft announced the end of life for the product in 2012, Netflix announced it was switching to HTML5.. Silverlight Silverlight is no longer around but it can look back with certain pride at what it was able to achieve. So what is the best Flash Player alternative for 2017? HTML5 is widely used Google Chrome has switched to it as did Netflix.. According to the brains behind this endeavor, the application supports over 200,000 websites.. However, this particular program is only compatible with video sites and does not play well with games, apps and website animations that rely on the service in question.. Since it is part of the GNU Project, the program is free and open source The good news is that it can play SWF files but the bad news is that it can only support up to version 7..

Developed to run and write rich internet applications, NBC used it to stream video during their coverage of the 2008 Beijing Summer Olympics and the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics.. It allows you develop any screen mobile learning without programming using all-new responsive authoring.. But despite the dominance of HTML5, Flash still remains thanks to a user base that still wants to use it as well as a number of products that won’t work without it..

  • Flashdetect: Actionscript 3 Malware Detection
    FlashDetect: ActionScript 3 malware detection Timon Van Overveldt1, Christopher Kruegel23, and Giovanni Vigna23 1 Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, Belgium, [email protected] 2 University of California, Santa Barbara, USA, {chris,vigna}@cs.ucsb.edu 3 Lastline, Inc. Abstract. Adobe Flash is present on nearly every PC, and it is in- creasingly being targeted by malware authors. Despite this, research into methods for detecting malicious Flash files has been limited. Similarly, there is very little documentation available about the techniques com- monly used by Flash malware. Instead, most research has focused on JavaScript malware. This paper discusses common techniques such as heap spraying, JIT spraying, and type confusion exploitation in the context of Flash mal- ware. Where applicable, these techniques are compared to those used in malicious JavaScript. Subsequently, FlashDetect is presented, an off- line Flash file analyzer that uses both dynamic and static analysis, and that can detect malicious Flash files using ActionScript 3. FlashDetect classifies submitted files using a naive Bayesian classifier based on a set of predefined features. Our experiments show that FlashDetect has high classification accuracy, and that its efficacy is comparable with that of commercial anti-virus products. Keywords: Flash exploit analysis, malicious ActionScript 3 detection, Flash type confusion 1 Introduction Adobe Flash is a technology that provides advanced video playback and anima- tion capabilities to developers through an advanced scripting language. The files played by Flash, called SWFs, are often embedded into webpages to be played by a browser plugin, or are embedded into a PDF file to be played by a copy of the Flash Player included in Adobe’s Acrobat Reader.

  • Comprehensive Analysis and Detection of Flash-Based Malware
    Comprehensive Analysis and Detection of Flash-based Malware Christian Wressnegger, Fabian Yamaguchi, Daniel Arp, and Konrad Rieck Institute of System Security, TU Braunschweig, Germany Abstract. Adobe Flash is a popular platform for providing dynamic and multimedia content on web pages. Despite being declared dead for years, Flash is still deployed on millions of devices. Unfortunately, the Adobe Flash Player increasingly suffers from vulnerabilities, and attacks using Flash-based malware regularly put users at risk of being remotely attacked|most prominently highlighted by numerous exploits made pub- lic during the past months. As a remedy, we present Gordon, a method for the comprehensive analysis and detection of Flash-based malware. By analyzing Flash animations at different levels during the interpreter's loading and execution process, our method is able to spot attacks against the Flash Player as well as malicious functionality embedded in Action- Script code. To achieve this goal, Gordon combines a structural analysis of the container format with guided execution of the contained code, a novel analysis strategy that manipulates the control flow to maximize the coverage of indicative code regions. In an empirical evaluation with 26,600 Flash samples collected over 12 consecutive weeks, Gordon significantly outperforms related approaches when applied to samples shortly after their first occurrence in the wild, demonstrating its ability to provide timely protection for end users. Keywords: Adobe Flash, Malware, Classification 1 Introduction Adobe Flash is a widespread platform for providing multimedia content on web pages|despite being declared dead for years and the recent standardization of HTML5. According to Adobe, the Flash Player is still deployed on over 500 million devices across different hardware platforms, covering a large fraction of all desktop systems [42].

September 2018 Tag der Disputation: 16. November 2018 Dedicated to my parents. Abstract Detecting and fending off attacks on computer systems is an enduring problem in computer security. In light of a plethora of different threats and the growing automation used by attackers, we are in urgent need of more advanced methods for attack detection. Manually crafting detection rules is by no means feasible at scale, and automatically generated signatures often lack context, such that they fall short in detecting slight variations of known threats. In this thesis, we address the necessity of advanced attack detection and develop methods to detect attacks using machine learning to establish a higher degree of automation for reactive security. Machine learning is data-driven and not void of bias. For the effective application of machine learning for attack detection, thus, a periodic retraining over time is crucial. However, the training complexity of many learning-based approaches is substantial.

  • Link Extraction for Crawling Flash on the Web

One client-side hurdle for crawling the hidden web is Flash files. This thesis presents a tool for extracting links from Flash files up to version 8 to enable web crawling. The files are both parsed and selectively interpreted to extract links. The purpose of the interpretation is to simulate the normal execution of Flash in the Flash runtime of a web browser. The interpretation is a low level approach that allows the extraction to occur offline and without involving automation of web browsers. A virtual machine is implemented and a set of limitations is chosen to reduce development time and maximize the coverage of interpreted byte code. Out of a test set of about 3500 randomly sampled Flash files the link extractor found links in 34% of the files. The resulting estimated web search engine coverage improvement is almost 10%. Keywords: Flash, crawling, spidering, deep web, hidden web, virtual ma- chine, interpretation 3 Acknowledgments I would like to thank Picsearch AB (publ) for the opportunity of getting access to the internals of a web search engine.

  • A Flash to HTML5 Converter
    The design and implementation of Google Swiffy: a Flash to HTML5 converter Pieter Albertus Mathijs Senster The design and implementation of Google Swiffy: a Flash to HTML5 converter THESIS submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE in COMPUTER SCIENCE by Pieter Albertus Mathijs Senster born in Den Helder, The Netherlands Software Engineering Research Group Google UK Ltd Department of Software Technology Belgrave House 76 Faculty EEMCS, Delft University of Technology Buckingham Palace Road Delft, the Netherlands London, United Kingdom www.ewi.tudelft.nl www.google.com Copyright Google 2012, All rights reserved. The design and implementation of Google Swiffy: a Flash to HTML5 converter Author: Pieter Albertus Mathijs Senster Student id: [redacted] Email: [email protected] Abstract As the web shifts towards mobile devices without support for Adobe Flash, devel- opers need to use new technologies to bring the type of animated, interactive content they used to develop in Flash to those mobile devices. In this thesis, we present the de- sign and implementation of a tool that eases this transition by automatically converting Flash to HTML5. We propose a new type of transformation using a server-side compiler and client- side interpreter that benefits the performance, file size overhead and interoperability of the conversion. The converter, named Swiffy, is evaluated on a dataset of Flash advertisements by measuring the percentage of files that are fully supported, the accuracy of the conver- sion and the performance of the output on desktop browsers and mobile devices. Swiffy provides Flash to HTML5 conversion in Google AdWords and is available for anyone to use as an extension to Adobe Flash Professional or using an online con- version service.
