This class is deprecated.
As of JDK 1.4, this implementation-specific class was
replaced by SSLPermission
.
Class Overview
This class is for various network permissions.
An SSLPermission contains a name (also referred to as a "target name") but
no actions list; you either have the named permission
or you don't.
The target name is the name of the network permission (see below). The naming
convention follows the hierarchical property naming convention.
Also, an asterisk
may appear at the end of the name, following a ".", or by itself, to
signify a wildcard match. For example: "foo.*" or "*" is valid,
"*foo" or "a*b" is not valid.
The following table lists all the possible SSLPermission target names,
and for each provides a description of what the permission allows
and a discussion of the risks of granting code the permission.
Permission Target Name |
What the Permission Allows |
Risks of Allowing this Permission |
setHostnameVerifier |
The ability to set a callback which can decide whether to
allow a mismatch between the host being connected to by
an HttpsURLConnection and the common name field in
server certificate.
|
Malicious
code can set a verifier that monitors host names visited by
HttpsURLConnection requests or that allows server certificates
with invalid common names.
|
getSSLSessionContext |
The ability to get the SSLSessionContext of an SSLSession.
|
Malicious code may monitor sessions which have been established
with SSL peers or might invalidate sessions to slow down performance.

Public Constructors
public
SSLPermission
(String name)
Creates a new SSLPermission with the specified name.
The name is the symbolic name of the SSLPermission, such as
"setDefaultAuthenticator", etc. An asterisk
may appear at the end of the name, following a ".", or by itself, to
signify a wildcard match.
Parameters
name
| the name of the SSLPermission.
|
public
SSLPermission
(String name, String actions)
Creates a new SSLPermission object with the specified name.
The name is the symbolic name of the SSLPermission, and the
actions String is currently unused and should be null. This
constructor exists for use by the Policy
object
to instantiate new Permission objects.
Parameters
name
| the name of the SSLPermission. |
actions
| should be null.
