Safari is a sandboxed app but that covers everything, I have never read about individual process level sandboxing in Safari beyond the plugin sandbox. Are they using XPC or did they roll something custom?

  WebProcess does have its own, more restrictive sandbox, although it's not as tight as Chrome's: https://github.com/WebKit/webkit/blob/master/Source/WebKit2/WebProcess/com.apple.WebProcess.sb.in https://github.com/WebKit/webkit/blob/master/Source/WebKit2/... For IPC they use something custom (part of the WebKit repo) called "CoreIPC".

    That makes sense given that it's open source.
