Kristian Waagan closed DERBY-2556.
----------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
Thanks for bringing this up again, Kathey.
I'm closing the issue, and I'm not planning to port it to 10.4.
There are conflicts in the merge, and in my view the potential security threat
is limited (exists, isDirectory, list, mkdirs).
In case anyone feel differently, porting the fix is doable with some manual
changes.

> When using 'createFrom' or 'restoreFrom' in the JDBC url to restore a
> database from a backup image, a SecurityException is thrown even though the
> policyfile for codebase derby.jar is correctly configured (giving Derby
> access to the backup image).
> A few comments on this issue can be found here (and in subsequent comments):

> A workaround is wrapping the connection call in doPrivileged at the
> "application-level code", or granting the required permissions to the
> application codebase as well.
