Looking into the Tomcat jars, I noticed the package "org.apache.jk" isn't blocked... so even with the Security Manager running, I think I am able to get catalina to load "arbitrary classes" like this,
<% org.apache.jk.apr.TomcatStarter.mainClasses = new String[]{ "someClass" }; org.apache.jk.apr.TomcatStarter.main(new String[0]); %> So, My question is, should we "block" access to package "org.apache.jk" from webapps?
