live power to usb cable

On my USB cables that have connectors on both ends, one end is live when
the other end is plugged into the computer. I can get a pretty decent
shock from the other end of the cable. This seems kind of dangerous.
Am I barking up the wrong tree here or is this an issue that should be
fixed?
