He's asking about the potential impact of running untrusted bytecode?
- sp332 11y agoSure, this (hypothetical) exploit would be a lot more damaging if it were widespread.
- orf 11y agoNot really, because simply by running untrusted Python bytecode in any form you are exposing yourself to much worse than this. You're already past the airtight hatch[1], so it's pointless - "It's like saying that somebody's home windows are insecure because a burglar could get into the house by merely unlocking and opening the windows from the inside." 1. http://blogs.msdn.com/b/oldnewthing/archive/2006/05/08/592350.aspx http://blogs.msdn.com/b/oldnewthing/archive/2006/05/08/59235...
