Matt Sicker commented on LOG4J2-633:
------------------------------------

Looks like this should be added to DefaultShutdownCallbackRegistry which means 
we might need a fallback no-op registry for when we can't do anything due to 
permission issues.

> Need to check permissions when registering shutdown hooks and obtaining 
> classloaders

> http://docs.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/lang/RuntimePermission.html 
> documents what operations require RuntimePermission checks. Log4j 2 doesn't 
> check these in a lot of cases. 
> Log4j should check the permissions but do so in a manner that doesn't 
> significantly impact performance. For example, registering shutdown hooks is 
> infrequent and so the overhead is minimal while calls to obtain a Classloader 
> are done much more frequently and so the permission checks need to be 
> minimized.
