[forge-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (FORGE-1358) Prevent Forge Addons to Issue System.exit(0)

[George Gastaldi (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/FORGE-1358?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12930500#comment-12930500 ] 

George Gastaldi commented on FORGE-1358:
----------------------------------------

I don't think this can be solved in Forge itself. The Eclipse VM (as well as the shell UI) should start with a {{java.policy}} parameter to enable a Security Manager.

> Right now it's possible to write a rogue add-on that while executing calls 'System.exit(0)'. If Forge 2 is embedded in Eclipse (or in any other application), this brings down the VM of the hosting application. This should be avoided.
