[Bug 203484] Re: Does not ask to grant additional permissions

 

Attaching icedtea-plugin output. The thread with the accept dialog is
still alive after the segmentation fault signal. If the user chooses the
"always trust" option no segmentation fault occurs on additional applet
runs.

The applet from
https://test.bankid.com/TestBankidCom/Templates/TestPage.aspx?id=29
still does not work 100% but the error reported in this bug (ie no
question asking for additional permission) is fixed in the PPA versions
(although introducing a regression in form of the reported segfault).

Bug description:
Binary package hint: icedtea-gcjwebplugin

My homebanking system needs access to a key file in my home directory. When trying to do so, Java's security bits rejects it without asking me about it. To make it work, I need to manually add stuff to java.policy (and since I have no clue how to do it correctly, I just temporarily put AllPermission into the default and removed it when I'm done doing my homebanking thing).

Obviously, what should happen is that I should get the friendly dialog box asking if I trust the software vendor and if I'm cool with the applet accessing my home directory.

This is on amd64, by the way.
