Replace url from youtube to embed code – Error: Permission denied to access property ‘toString’

by

The error can either be fixed by Adobe’s Flash Player team, or by the Google engineers – you should just ignore it for now. It’s connected to Flash Player security settings and the SWF file embedded into the Youtube page. The problem has been reported in the past by IBM, and there is a Mozilla Bugzilla entry as well.

When I deactivate Flash Player in Firefox 16.0.2, the error message disappears. Check comment #37: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=434522#c37

For what it’s worth, I’m seeing this bug happen when any flash file,
even ones that have NO actionscript calls (ExternalInterface, etc) in
them at all, is loaded into an iframe on a page where the page domain
and the iframe domain are different. This means that the iframe
problem is caused when there is in fact a cross-domain situation in
place. However, it’s not totally clear if there’s really actually
attempting to be a cross-domain call that should be prevented and
error’d out.

Because it’s nothing that the flash SWF itself is trying to call to do
“Location.toString”, and it’s nothing about the javascript on the page
doing it, the only choice is that there’s something about the flash
plugin itself (9.0.124 is what I’m testing with) that’s trying to make
that call up to the parent/top window to do Location.toString().

While the bug is marked as resolved, the test case attached https://bug434522.bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?id=321956 produces the same error message in the latest Firefox version (both in the Firebug console, or the Firefox Error Console window).

Update:
The bug has been filed with Adobe as well in the old bug database: FP-561 “Location.toString” uncaught (security) exception caused by improper Flash plugin behavior (you need an account to see the bug details). The last comment there when the bug was closed:

Tested with the latest Flash Player 10.3.181.34 on Firefox 4 and 5, no
such exception was thrown. So the bug may have been fixed, right? If
you still meet this issue, please file a bug in our new bug system
https://bugbase.adobe.com/ and put a link in the new bug to this
original JIRA report. We are happy to follow up your report in the new
bug system.
