Was this fixed by switching the backend from MediaWiki to Kuma (which happened this morning at last), or is swfupload.swf still buried in there somewhere?
By which I meant to say "I can't reproduce this". I get a 404 error.
Hm, the content is gone. It was there when I filed the bug...
yeah, a constant stream of bugs like this is one reason we switched.
we stopped using mindtouch for our developer site, well, right after you found this. :) there is a new site to attack!
bye bye MindTouch skins and your impossibly convoluted security vulnerabilities that you never bother to fix!

For bugs that are resolved, we remove the security flag. These haven't had their flag removed, so I'm removing it now.
