Andreas Veithen reopened AXIOM-62:
----------------------------------

      Assignee: Andreas Veithen  (was: Rich Scheuerle)

I'm reopening this issue. As noted in the description, this is actually an 
issue with the underlying StAX implementation. On the other hand, executing 
createXMLStream(Reader|Writer) with doPrivileged causes unnecessary overhead 
and is questionable from a security point of view because it may give the code 
that calls StAXUtils privileges it is not expected to have.
                
> Java2Security Error.  StAXUtils needs a AccessController code.

> Problem:
> StAXUtils.createXMLStreamReader(...) and StAXUtils.createXMLStreamWriter(...) 
> methods call out to the plugged in stax implementation.  Brent Ulbricht 
> discovered a J2S 
> exception in a non-woodstox parser.  
> Solution:
> I am pursuing a fix with the one of the owners of the parser.  In addition, I 
> am using this JIRA to do surround the code in a AccessController.doPriv 
> block.  This solution is consistent with pre-existing code in doPriv code in 
> StAXUtils.
