HTTP: Adobe Flash Player resourceModuleURLs Usage

This signature detects usage of the resourceModuleURLs variable in Adobe Flash Player which could indicate an attack. The resourceModuleURLs variable is a legitimate variable which is prone to abuse, which makes it difficult to determine if its use is intended for malicious purposes.

Extended Description

Adobe Flex SDK is prone to a cross-site scripting vulnerability because it fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input to express-install template files. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary script code in the context of a web application built using the SDK. This may allow the attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials and launch other attacks. Adobe Flex SDK 4.5.1 and prior versions are affected.
