public class SecurityManager extends Object
The security manager is a class that allows applications to implement a security policy. It allows an application to determine, before performing a possibly unsafe or sensitive operation, what the operation is and whether it is being attempted in a security context that allows the operation to be performed. The application can allow or disallow the operation.The
SecurityManager
class contains many methods with names that begin with the wordcheck
. These methods are called by various methods in the Java libraries before those methods perform certain potentially sensitive operations. The invocation of such acheck
method typically looks like this:SecurityManager security = System.getSecurityManager(); if (security != null) { security.checkXXX(argument, . . . ); }
The security manager is thereby given an opportunity to prevent completion of the operation by throwing an exception. A security manager routine simply returns if the operation is permitted, but throws a
SecurityException
if the operation is not permitted. The only exception to this convention ischeckTopLevelWindow
, which returns aboolean
value.The current security manager is set by the
setSecurityManager
method in classSystem
. The current security manager is obtained by thegetSecurityManager
method.The special method
checkPermission(java.security.Permission)
determines whether an access request indicated by a specified permission should be granted or denied. The default implementation callsAccessController.checkPermission(perm);
If a requested access is allowed,
checkPermission
returns quietly. If denied, aSecurityException
is thrown.As of Java 2 SDK v1.2, the default implementation of each of the other
check
methods inSecurityManager
is to call theSecurityManager checkPermission
method to determine if the calling thread has permission to perform the requested operation.Note that the
checkPermission
method with just a single permission argument always performs security checks within the context of the currently executing thread. Sometimes a security check that should be made within a given context will actually need to be done from within a different context (for example, from within a worker thread). ThegetSecurityContext
method and thecheckPermission
method that includes a context argument are provided for this situation. ThegetSecurityContext
method returns a "snapshot" of the current calling context. (The default implementation returns an AccessControlContext object.) A sample call is the following:Object context = null; SecurityManager sm = System.getSecurityManager(); if (sm != null) context = sm.getSecurityContext();
The
checkPermission
method that takes a context object in addition to a permission makes access decisions based on that context, rather than on that of the current execution thread. Code within a different context can thus call that method, passing the permission and the previously-saved context object. A sample call, using the SecurityManagersm
obtained as in the previous example, is the following:if (sm != null) sm.checkPermission(permission, context);
Permissions fall into these categories: File, Socket, Net, Security, Runtime, Property, AWT, Reflect, and Serializable. The classes managing these various permission categories are
java.io.FilePermission
,java.net.SocketPermission
,java.net.NetPermission
,java.security.SecurityPermission
,java.lang.RuntimePermission
,java.util.PropertyPermission
,java.awt.AWTPermission
,java.lang.reflect.ReflectPermission
, andjava.io.SerializablePermission
.All but the first two (FilePermission and SocketPermission) are subclasses of
java.security.BasicPermission
, which itself is an abstract subclass of the top-level class for permissions, which isjava.security.Permission
. BasicPermission defines the functionality needed for all permissions that contain a name that follows the hierarchical property naming convention (for example, "exitVM", "setFactory", "queuePrintJob", etc). An asterisk may appear at the end of the name, following a ".", or by itself, to signify a wildcard match. For example: "a.*" or "*" is valid, "*a" or "a*b" is not valid.FilePermission and SocketPermission are subclasses of the top-level class for permissions (
java.security.Permission
). Classes like these that have a more complicated name syntax than that used by BasicPermission subclass directly from Permission rather than from BasicPermission. For example, for ajava.io.FilePermission
object, the permission name is the path name of a file (or directory).Some of the permission classes have an "actions" list that tells the actions that are permitted for the object. For example, for a
java.io.FilePermission
object, the actions list (such as "read, write") specifies which actions are granted for the specified file (or for files in the specified directory).Other permission classes are for "named" permissions - ones that contain a name but no actions list; you either have the named permission or you don't.
Note: There is also a
java.security.AllPermission
permission that implies all permissions. It exists to simplify the work of system administrators who might need to perform multiple tasks that require all (or numerous) permissions.See Permissions in the JDK for permission-related information. This document includes, for example, a table listing the various SecurityManager
check
methods and the permission(s) the default implementation of each such method requires. It also contains a table of all the version 1.2 methods that require permissions, and for each such method tells which permission it requires.For more information about

getSecurityContext
public Object getSecurityContext()
Creates an object that encapsulates the current execution environment. The result of this method is used, for example, by the three-argumentcheckConnect
method and by the two-argumentcheckRead
method. These methods are needed because a trusted method may be called on to read a file or open a socket on behalf of another method. The trusted method needs to determine if the other (possibly untrusted) method would be allowed to perform the operation on its own.The default implementation of this method is to return an
AccessControlContext
object.- Returns:
- an implementation-dependent object that encapsulates sufficient information about the current execution environment to perform some security checks later.

checkConnect
,checkRead
,AccessControlContext
-
checkPermission
public void checkPermission(Permission perm)
Throws aSecurityException
if the requested access, specified by the given permission, is not permitted based on the security policy currently in effect.This method calls
AccessController.checkPermission
with the given permission.- Parameters:

SecurityException
- if access is not permitted based on the current security policy.NullPointerException
- if the permission argument isnull
.- Since:
- 1.2

public void checkPermission(Permission perm, Object context)
Throws aSecurityException
if the specified security context is denied access to the resource specified by the given permission. The context must be a security context returned by a previous call togetSecurityContext
and the access control decision is based upon the configured security policy for that security context.If
context
is an instance ofAccessControlContext
then theAccessControlContext.checkPermission
method is invoked with the specified permission.If
context
is not an instance ofAccessControlContext
then aSecurityException
is thrown.- Parameters:

if the calling thread is not allowed to create a new class loader.This method calls
checkPermission
with theRuntimePermission("createClassLoader")
permission.If you override this method, then you should make a call to

checkAccess
public void checkAccess(Thread t)
Throws aSecurityException
if the calling thread is not allowed to modify the thread argument.This method is invoked for the current security manager by the
stop
,suspend
,resume
,setPriority
,setName
, andsetDaemon
methods of classThread
.If the thread argument is a system thread (belongs to the thread group with a
null
parent) then this method callscheckPermission
with theRuntimePermission("modifyThread")
permission. If the thread argument is not a system thread, this method just returns silently.Applications that want a stricter policy should override this method. If this method is overridden, the method that overrides it should additionally check to see if the calling thread has the
RuntimePermission("modifyThread")
permission, and if so, return silently. This is to ensure that code granted that permission (such as the JDK itself) is allowed to manipulate any thread.If this method is overridden, then
super.checkAccess
should be called by the first statement in the overridden method, or the equivalent security check should be placed in the overridden method.- Parameters:
t
- the thread to be checked.- Throws:
SecurityException
- if the calling thread does not have permission to modify the thread.NullPointerException
- if the thread argument isnull
.- See Also:

, anddestroy
methods of classThreadGroup
.If the thread group argument is the system thread group ( has a
null
parent) then this method callscheckPermission
with theRuntimePermission("modifyThreadGroup")
permission. If the thread group argument is not the system thread group, this method just returns silently.Applications that want a stricter policy should override this method. If this method is overridden, the method that overrides it should additionally check to see if the calling thread has the

permission, and if so, return silently. This is to ensure that code granted that permission (such as the JDK itself) is allowed to manipulate any thread.If this method is overridden, then
super.checkAccess

checkMemberAccess
public void checkMemberAccess(Class<?> clazz, int which)
Throws aSecurityException
if the calling thread is not allowed to access members.The default policy is to allow access to PUBLIC members, as well as access to classes that have the same class loader as the caller. In all other cases, this method calls
checkPermission
with theRuntimePermission("accessDeclaredMembers")
permission.If this method is overridden, then a call to
super.checkMemberAccess
cannot be made, as the default implementation ofcheckMemberAccess
relies on the code being checked being at a stack depth of 4.- Parameters:
