======================================================
Name: CVE-2008-1834
Status: Candidate
URL: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2008-1834
Reference: MLIST:[Swfdec] 20080409 Swfdec 0.6.4 released
Reference: URL:http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/swfdec/2008-April/001321.html
Reference: CONFIRM:http://gitweb.freedesktop.org/?p=swfdec/swfdec.git;a=commit;h=326ee4ff631ecc11605f1251e1923a94561a3823

swfdec_load_object.c in Swfdec before 0.6.4 does not properly restrict
local file access from untrusted sandboxes, which allows remote
attackers to read arbitrary files via a crafted Flash file.
