How about adding something like
permission java.io.FilePermission
"${catalina.base}${file.separator}webapps/-", "read";
to the block starting with
grant codeBase "file:${catalina.home}/bin/tomcat-juli.jar"
The security manager should mainly protect you somehow against malicious
webapp code. So giving those permissions to tomcat-juli doesn't seem to
be to big a problem. You can even narrow that down to giving it only to
the class org.apache.juli.ClassLoaderLogManager.
I don't know how the file system layout of the webapps for all your
vhosts looks like, but wouldn't something like this be a good compromise
for 5.5.27?
