JDK-8192811 :  
Release Note: Removal of Deprecated Pre-1.2 SecurityManager Methods and Fields - Closed
Description
Remove the following pre-1.2 deprecated java.lang.SecurityManager methods and fields that have been marked with forRemoval=true in JDK 9: the inCheck field, and the getInCheck, classDepth, classLoaderDepth, currentClassLoader, currentLoadedClass, inClass, and inClassLoader methods. Also, change the checkMemberAccess method to throw SecurityException if the caller has not been granted AllPermission as this method is error-prone and users should instead invoke checkPermission directly.
