Hi! |

I've noticed two issues with flashplayer plugin: |
4 |
1) if there more than one flash applet on page - only one will work, other |
5 |
will show gray box; same is true if two websites open in different Opera |
6 |
tabs, both contain flash applet, and only one of them will work |
7 |
(maybe this issue related only to Opera, not sure) |
8 |
2) some applets (internal flash applications developed in our company) |
9 |
don't work at all in Opera and immediately crash firefox (these applets |
10 |
works fine in Windows and non-hardened linux) |
11 |
|
12 |
I found PaX messages in logs related to this issue, and tried to: |
13 |
chpax -s /opt/firefox/firefox-bin |
14 |
chpax -s /opt/opera/lib/opera/plugins/operapluginwrapper |
15 |
and that helps! Now our applets works fine in both Opera and FireFox, |
16 |
moreover I can now open several pages with flash and they all works |
17 |
simultaneously (in Opera). So this solved both bugs. |
18 |
|
19 |
BTW, I'm not very happy to relax PaX protection, especially for untrusted |
20 |
content received from websites, like flash applets. :( |
21 |
|
22 |
If anybody can confirm this issue, these chpax commands probably should be |
23 |
added to opera and firefox ebuilds... |
24 |
|
25 |
P.S. My system is up-to-date (netscape-flash-9.0.48.0-r1, opera-9.24, |
26 |
mozilla-firefox-bin-2.0.0.9). |
