Apr32008Dreamweaver Security Update for Flash Video
If you use the “Insert Flash Video” command in either Dreamweaver CS3 or Dreamweaver 8, you should download a security update from the Adobe Web site. Apparently the code inserted by Dreamweaver is open to “cross site scripting attacks.” Adobe doesn’t go into much detail about how these “attacks” might work, but they mention that there is the potential that an “attacker could gain access to the customer’s session by appending a script to the link.” At any rate, you can never be too safe, you should download and install the update.

You can also learn more about the problem from this security bulletin on Adobe’s site.
