Java + Javascript bridge has stopped working on Mac OS X 10.5/6, Firefox 3.6.12, Java 1.6.0_22.
The security updates in 3.6.12 seem to have broken the javascript communication layer between Firefox and Java applets.

this problem was introduced in 3.6.10 or 3.6.11 since the java to javascript bridge worked in 3.6.9.
What I am seeing is that Java is throwing a security error when file io is initiated by an external call from Javascript to a file on the server that java should have access to. Here is the error.
<<< ProxyClassLoader: defined LiveConnectProxy class. >>> <<< Here're the permissions you've got: >>> <<< java.security.Permissions@157402b (
(java.net.SocketPermission www.dhba.com connect,accept,resolve)
)

My system: Mac OSX10.6.4 with Firefox3.6.12 (Java Plug-in 1.6.0_22 Using JRE version 1.6.0_22-b04-307-10M3261 Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM)
As the title says, the JavaScript-to-Java bridge seems to be broken. The following basic line returns null, and a lot of applications in our company stopped working because of it:
import netscape.javascript.JSObject; JSObject win = JSObject.getWindow((java.applet.Applet)applet);
Is there any workaround or patch for this issue?, is there an official bug raised to track this issue?
Many thanks,
