This noncompliant code example returns an instance of the immediate caller's class loader to any invoker. A malicious invoker can consequently, obtain the associated class loader using standard APIs such as java.lang.Class.getClassLoader().

Class.newInstance() does not throw any security exception when the class loader is either the same or the delegation ancestor of its immediate caller. (SEC02SEC05-J. Do not expose standard APIs that may bypass Security Manager checks to untrusted code)
