Hi,
This patch adds URLPermission to the sandbox permissions set in
SecurityDesc, if URLPermission is available (so for Java 8+). Certain
applets are broken when using IcedTea-Web with Java 8 due to the lack of
this permission. An example of such an applet is Oasis[0]. This applet
should work fine with plain IcedTea-Web and JDK 7, but should fail with
plain IcedTea-Web and JDK 8. It should continue to work with patched
IcedTea-Web and JDK 7 but produce a few small WARNING_DEBUG level
messages, and should begin to work with patched IcedTea-Web and JDK 8.
