SWF and the Malware Tragedy

Abstract

Security of Rich Internet Applications (RIA) especially based on Adobe Flash has become a subject for many concerns. Numerous tools for decompiling, disassembling and analysis are available, although most of them are not intended be used for security-related analysis. The recent attacks supplying malicious banner ads through high profile web sites are an example how easy it is to reach a large number of targets with relatively primitive techniques such as redirects from within a Flash banner. This talk is focussed on possible attacks with Flash and detection of malicious SWF on-the-fly mainly using erlswf, a tool written in Erlang programming language.
