public class ValidatingObjectInputStream
extends ObjectInputStream

An ObjectInputStream that's restricted to deserialize a limited set of classes.

Various accept/reject methods allow for specifying which classes can be deserialized.

Design inspired by IBM DeveloperWorks Article.

Constructor Details

ValidatingObjectInputStream

public ValidatingObjectInputStream(InputStream input)
                            throws IOException

Constructs an object to deserialize the specified input stream. At least one accept method needs to be called to specify which classes can be deserialized, as by default no classes are accepted.

Parameters:

input - an input stream

Throws:

IOException - if an I/O error occurs while reading stream header

Method Details

accept

public ValidatingObjectInputStream accept(Class<?>... classes)

Accept the specified classes for deserialization, unless they are otherwise rejected.

Parameters:

classes - Classes to accept

Returns:

this object

accept

public ValidatingObjectInputStream accept(ClassNameMatcher m)

Accept class names where the supplied ClassNameMatcher matches for deserialization, unless they are otherwise rejected.

Parameters:

m - the matcher to use

Returns:

this object

accept

public ValidatingObjectInputStream accept(Pattern pattern)

Accept class names that match the supplied pattern for deserialization, unless they are otherwise rejected.

Parameters:

pattern - standard Java regexp

Returns:

this object

accept

public ValidatingObjectInputStream accept(String... patterns)

Accept the wildcard specified classes for deserialization, unless they are otherwise rejected.

Parameters:

patterns - Wildcard file name patterns as defined by FilenameUtils.wildcardMatch

Returns:

this object

reject

public ValidatingObjectInputStream reject(Class<?>... classes)

Reject the specified classes for deserialization, even if they are otherwise accepted.

Parameters:

classes - Classes to reject

Returns:

this object

reject

public ValidatingObjectInputStream reject(ClassNameMatcher m)

Reject class names where the supplied ClassNameMatcher matches for deserialization, even if they are otherwise accepted.

Parameters:

m - the matcher to use

Returns:

this object

reject

public ValidatingObjectInputStream reject(Pattern pattern)

Reject class names that match the supplied pattern for deserialization, even if they are otherwise accepted.

Parameters:

pattern - standard Java regexp

Returns:

this object

reject

public ValidatingObjectInputStream reject(String... patterns)

Reject the wildcard specified classes for deserialization, even if they are otherwise accepted.

Parameters:

patterns - Wildcard file name patterns as defined by FilenameUtils.wildcardMatch

Returns:

this object
