By using Java Native Interface (JNI), programmers can integrate Java programs with legacy applications or third-party libraries written in other languages (e.g., C, C++, and Pascal). However, the use of JNI can bypass the Java boundary checking and exception-handling mechanisms. Furthermore, its use can violate Java's type-safety feature because of the type-mismatches between native programs and Java programs. As a result, such integration can cause various security issues including heap errors that can be dangerous and difficult to detect.
