Fred Andrews updated PDFBOX-1946: --------------------------------- Attachment: patch.zip Took me a while to get back to this... Attached is a zip file with 5 patch files that correct all the applet issues and security violations I found. I had also needed to change org\apache\pdfbox\pdmodel\graphics\color\PDColorState but that class seemed to have been deleted. And to address your previous question, this was on a signed Applet. The latest versions of Java seem to be more restrictive on what even signed Applets are allowed to do. > Running within an Applet has many AccessControlException 's > ----------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: PDFBOX-1946 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-1946 > Project: PDFBox > Issue Type: Wish > Affects Versions: 1.8.4 > Environment: Running within an Applet > Reporter: Fred Andrews > Labels: Security > Attachments: patch.zip > > > I've identified 6 modules that should be modified to avoid > AccessControlException's while running within an Applet. My solution would > be to catch each AccessControlException and then use a default or continue > on. For most of these, that is probably the best solution, for a few > especially PDFStreamEngine someone may have a better idea. > The modules that have issues: > pdfbox\pdfparser\BaseParser -- line 131 call to Boolean.getBoolean, line 170 > call to Integer.getInteger > pdfbox\util\PDFTextStripper -- line 79 call to System.getProperty() > pdfbox\util\ResourceLoader -- line 67 call to getSystemClassLoader() > pdfbox\pdmodel\graphics\color\PDColorState -- line 50, call to Color.getColor > pdfbox/encoding/Encoding -- line 78, call to System.getProperty > pdfbox\util\PDFStreamEngine -- Line 351 & 364 check for font == null (will be > null if had resource loading problems) > Not sure what the best way is to proceed. Please advise. > Thanks -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
