Obscure of EyeonSecurity who thoroughly researched and pioneered every
attack we used.
Thanks to Autodemo, Infosoft, and Techsmith for quickly fixing this
issue. We also thank the Computer Emergency Response Team for
coordinating with the vendors to fix this issue, the Adobe Flash
player development teams for including some fixes in the player (we
hope to see more in the future), the Adobe Software Security
Engineering Team, and the Google Security Team for giving me time to
pursue this research and coauthor a book.
