Error description

  • Error Message: java.security.AccessControlException
.
Stack Trace: The stack trace from the application might look
like following:Caused by: java.security.AccessControlException:
Access denied (<some permission>)at
java.security.AccessController.throwACEat
java.security.AccessController.checkPermissionat
java.lang.SecurityManager.checkPermissionIf the application
should have access to <some permission>, re-run the testcase
with VM command line option "-Djava.security.debug=all", which
shows the actual failed permission check:"domain that failed
(java.security.SecurityPermission createAccessControlContext)
check ProtectionDomain".
.

Local fix

  • Construct AccessControlContext with
AccessControlContext(AccessControlContext acc, DomainCombiner
combiner) instead of
AccessControlContext(ProtectionDomain<OSB><CSB> context) where
combiner could simply be null.

Problem summary

  • This AccessControlException was caused by unnecessary permission
checking.

Problem conclusion

  • The JVM has been updated to remove unnecessary permission
checks.
