It can be used by all code in any processes with your uid. Where are you calling it from in the service? Note that this function is intended to check the permission of someone calling -in- to you and only on yourself if you are not in that state; generally just checking if you have a permission yourself is not a common operation, and best done with direct calls to the PackageManager.
