If you are referring to GetOpenProperties.java, then look at the
propertyNames string array. You will notice that the only properties listed
there are the ones that can be executed without a security exception.

Try adding "user.name" to the array, which is one of the "Forbidden system
properties". Now you should get the security exception.
