HP offers free security tool for Flash developers Read more: HP is set to announce on Monday a free tool that developers can use to check for holes in the Flash applications they write, which can lead to data leaks and other security problems on Web sites.
HP SWFScan decompiles Flash applications and searches the code for vulnerabilities and violations of Adobe's best security practices guidelines, said Billy Hoffman, manager of HP's Web Security Research Group. The tool works with all versions of Flash. With the Flash Player installed on more than 98 percent of Internet-connected computers globally, Flash applications are a popular target for attackers. HP analyzed nearly 4,000 Web apps developed with the Flash platform and found that 35 percent violate Adobe's security best practices.
