Jörg Waßmer commented on BVAL-91:
---------------------------------
By the way, the privileged action in FieldAccess.get() is useless.
> Security hole in org.apache.bval.util.MethodAccess.get()
> --------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: BVAL-91
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BVAL-91
> Project: BeanValidation
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 0.2-incubating, 0.3-incubating, 0.4-incubating
> Reporter: Jörg Waßmer
> Priority: Critical
>
> MethodAccess.get() surrounds the call to Method.invoke() by a privileged
> action. Thus the bean getter method will we executed with all the privileges
> of the MethodAccess class, allowing application code to break out of its own
> security domain.
> Method.invoke() should be called without the privileged action.
