Summary

Constants

int MODE_ALLOWED

Result from noteOp(Context, String, int, String): the given caller is allowed to perform the given operation.

int MODE_DEFAULT

Result from noteOp(Context, String, int, String): the given caller should use its default security check.

int MODE_ERRORED

Result from noteOpNoThrow(Context, String, int, String): the given caller is not allowed to perform the given operation, and this attempt should cause it to have a fatal error, typically a SecurityException.

int MODE_IGNORED

Result from noteOp(Context, String, int, String): the given caller is not allowed to perform the given operation, and this attempt should silently fail (it should not cause the app to crash).

Public methods

static int noteOp(Context context, String op, int uid, String packageName)

Make note of an application performing an operation.

static int noteOpNoThrow(Context context, String op, int uid, String packageName)

Like noteOp(Context, String, int, String) but instead of throwing a SecurityException it returns MODE_ERRORED.

static int noteProxyOp(Context context, String op, String proxiedPackageName)

Make note of an application performing an operation on behalf of another application when handling an IPC.

static int noteProxyOpNoThrow(Context context, String op, String proxiedPackageName)

Like noteProxyOp(Context, String, String) but instead of throwing a SecurityException it returns MODE_ERRORED.

static String permissionToOp(String permission)

Gets the app op name associated with a given permission.

Constants

MODE_ALLOWED

added in version 24.1.0
int MODE_ALLOWED

Result from noteOp(Context, String, int, String): the given caller is allowed to perform the given operation.

Constant Value: 0 (0x00000000)

MODE_DEFAULT

added in version 24.1.0
int MODE_DEFAULT

Result from noteOp(Context, String, int, String): the given caller should use its default security check. This mode is not normally used; it should only be used with appop permissions, and callers must explicitly check for it and deal with it.

Constant Value: 3 (0x00000003)

MODE_ERRORED

added in version 27.1.0
int MODE_ERRORED

Result from noteOpNoThrow(Context, String, int, String): the given caller is not allowed to perform the given operation, and this attempt should cause it to have a fatal error, typically a SecurityException.

Constant Value: 2 (0x00000002)

MODE_IGNORED

added in version 24.1.0
int MODE_IGNORED

Result from noteOp(Context, String, int, String): the given caller is not allowed to perform the given operation, and this attempt should silently fail (it should not cause the app to crash).

Constant Value: 1 (0x00000001)

Public methods

noteOp

added in version 24.1.0
int noteOp (Context context, 
                String op, 
                int uid, 
                String packageName)

Make note of an application performing an operation. Note that you must pass in both the uid and name of the application to be checked; this function will verify that these two match, and if not, return MODE_IGNORED. If this call succeeds, the last execution time of the operation for this app will be updated to the current time.

Compatibility

  • On API 18 and lower, this method always returns MODE_IGNORED

Parameters
context Context: Your context.

op String: The operation to note. One of the OPSTR_* constants.

uid int: The user id of the application attempting to perform the operation.

packageName String: The name of the application attempting to perform the operation.

Returns
int Returns MODE_ALLOWED if the operation is allowed, or MODE_IGNORED if it is not allowed and should be silently ignored (without causing the app to crash).

Throws
SecurityException If the app has been configured to crash on this op.

noteOpNoThrow

added in version 27.1.0
int noteOpNoThrow (Context context, 
                String op, 
                int uid, 
                String packageName)

Like noteOp(Context, String, int, String) but instead of throwing a SecurityException it returns MODE_ERRORED.

Compatibility

  • On API 18 and lower, this method always returns MODE_IGNORED

Parameters
context Context

op String

uid int

packageName String

Returns
int

noteProxyOp

added in version 24.1.0
int noteProxyOp (Context context, 
                String op, 
                String proxiedPackageName)

Make note of an application performing an operation on behalf of another application when handling an IPC. Note that you must pass the package name of the application that is being proxied while its UID will be inferred from the IPC state; this function will verify that the calling uid and proxied package name match, and if not, return MODE_IGNORED. If this call succeeds, the last execution time of the operation for the proxied app and your app will be updated to the current time.

Compatibility

  • On API 22 and lower, this method always returns MODE_IGNORED

Parameters
context Context: Your context.

op String: The operation to note. One of the OPSTR_* constants.

proxiedPackageName String: The name of the application calling into the proxy application.

Returns
int Returns MODE_ALLOWED if the operation is allowed, or MODE_IGNORED if it is not allowed and should be silently ignored (without causing the app to crash).

Throws
SecurityException If the app has been configured to crash on this op.

noteProxyOpNoThrow

added in version 27.1.0
int noteProxyOpNoThrow (Context context, 
                String op, 
                String proxiedPackageName)

Like noteProxyOp(Context, String, String) but instead of throwing a SecurityException it returns MODE_ERRORED.

Compatibility

  • On API 22 and lower, this method always returns MODE_IGNORED

Parameters
context Context

op String

proxiedPackageName String

Returns
int

permissionToOp

added in version 24.1.0
String permissionToOp (String permission)

Gets the app op name associated with a given permission.

Compatibility

  • On API 22 and lower, this method always returns null

Parameters
permission String: The permission.

Returns
String The app op associated with the permission or null.
