javasyspriv - a security vulnerability?

I have a java stored proc created in a schema to execute OS commands on UNIX (Database version 9.2). This schema has been granted JAVASYSPRIV.

If I create a file using this stored proc, the file gets ownership of unix id oracle. How can I prevent this to happen? Can I control my environment in such a way that this java stored proc creates file with a specified unix id and not oracle id?

On a side note, is this behavior not a security vulnerability?
