icedtea-web can't run signed applets in sandbox

Solution Unverified - Updated -

Issue

icedtea-web is unable to run sandboxed, signed applets. It aborts with an error when that is attempted. This affects the our add-on Software which runs in sandbox mode for security reasons, and is of course signed. This is a known bug in icedtea-web which is solved in icedtea-web 1.6.
Is there a chance to fix this in rhel6 and rhel7?
