“Java has been designed from the ground up with security in mind; this gives it a great advantage over many other existing systems and platforms. The Java security architecture was designed by security experts and has been studied and probed by many other security experts since the inception of the platform. The consensus is that the architecture itself is strong and robust, without any security holes in the design (at least none that have been discovered yet).
Fundamental to the design of the security model is that bytecode is heavily restricted in what it can express — there is no way, for example, to directly address memory. This cuts out entire classes of security problems that have plagued languages like C and C++. Furthermore, the VM goes through a process known as bytecode verification whenever it loads an untrusted class, which removes a further large class of problems (see Chapter 10 for more about bytecode verification).
Despite all this, however, no system can guarantee 100% security, and Java is no exception.
While the design is still theoretically robust, the implementation of the security architecture is another matter, and there is a long history of security flaws being found and patched in particular implementations of Java.
In particular, the release of Java 8 was delayed, at least partly, due to the discovery of a number of security problems that required considerable effort to fix.
In all likelihood, security flaws will continue to be discovered (and patched) in Java VM implementations. For practical server-side coding, Java remains perhaps the most secure general-purpose platform currently available, especially when kept patched up to [[date.”
- Snippet from Wikipedia: Security of the Java software platform
The Java software platform provides a number of features designed for improving the security of Java applications. This includes enforcing runtime constraints through the use of the Java Virtual Machine (JVM), a security manager that sandboxes untrusted code from the rest of the operating system, and a suite of security APIs that Java developers can utilise. Despite this, criticism has been directed at the programming language, and Oracle, due to an increase in malicious programs that revealed security vulnerabilities in the JVM, which were subsequently not properly addressed by Oracle in a timely manner.
