- All Implemented Interfaces:
- Serializable,- Guard
The 
 
 
 
 
JDIPermission class represents access rights to
 the VirtualMachineManager.  This is the permission
 which the SecurityManager will check when code that is running with
 a SecurityManager requests access to the VirtualMachineManager, as
 defined in the Java Debug Interface (JDI) for the Java platform.
 
 A JDIPermission object 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 following table provides a summary description of what the permission allows, and discusses the risks of granting code the permission.
| Permission Target Name | What the Permission Allows | Risks of Allowing this Permission | 
|---|---|---|
| virtualMachineManager | Ability to inspect and modify the JDI objects in the VirtualMachineManager | This allows an attacker to control the VirtualMachineManagerand cause the system to
   misbehave. | 
Programmers do not normally create JDIPermission objects directly. Instead they are created by the security policy code based on reading the security policy file.
