>From an earlier post:
The latest version of the Flash Player, 9.0.124.0, contains security
changes that will break your WebService calls. There is a lot of info
available about this, but here is a quick fix. NOTE: This example is
insecure. Consult with a security expert, or become one yourself,
before working with a production environment.
Add this to your crossdomain.xml file:
<allow-http-request-headers-from domain="*" headers="*" />
Again, the wildcards are not good for a production environment. But if
you just need to get coding again, this will work.
An additional FYI: this change happened earlier than the current
version, don't know exactly when, but you will also need this (or a more
secure version) in your crossdomain.xml file:
<site-control permitted-cross-domain-policies="master-only"/>
I do not know really what it means, but it lets me work.
If you need to understand this stuff, the information is available. Here
is a summary link:

update.html

And here is a link to the big whitepaper. It was way over my head.

I wish we could just execute the jerks that make this crap necessary.
