If files downloaded contain shell characters it's possible to execute
code as the client user.

ie: flash_file;id>/tmp/o;.swf

./flash_tool-0.6.0/lib/flash_tool.rb

Lines:

26 command = "swfstrings #{file}"
27: output = `#{command} 2>&1`
88: command = "#{command} #{option} #{file}"
89: output = `#{command} 2>&1`

./flash_tool-0.6.0/lib/flash_tool/flash.rb
75: command = "#{command} #{args.join(" ")}"
76: output = `#{command} 2>&1`
