Comment 6 Marc Schoenefeld 2010-11-24 15:08:02 UTC

A public static field declaration allowed untrusted  applications/applets to read privileged data. A remote attacker could directly or indirectly read the values of restricted system properties like "user.name", "user.home" and "java.home", which restricted applets or applications should not be allowed to read.
