Quote:

"Developers: As of 7u51, (January, 2014), your Rich Internet 
Applications (RIAs, also known as Applets and Web Start applications) 
must be updated. The updates required are on the packaging and 
distribution; no API code changes should be required. The impetus for 
these changes relates to potential re-purposing of sandboxed 
applications, whereby placing permissions within a signed JAR prevents 
modification of your specified permission level.
RIAs must contain two things:

     Code signatures from a trusted authority. All code for Applets and 
Web Start applications must be signed, regardless of its Permissions 
attributes.
     Manifest Attributes
         Permissions – Introduced in 7u25, and required as of 7u51. 
Indicates if the RIA should run within the sandbox or require 
full-permissions.
         Codebase – Introduced in 7u25 and optional/encouraged as of 
7u51. Points to the known location of the hosted code."
