They already can use C++ if they want to. Emscripten? Jslinux?

- ozgrakkurt 6mo agoI mean just distributing the regular compiled x86_64 binary and then running it as a normal executable on the client side but just using that syscall shim so it is safe.
- direwolf20 6mo agoIf you think about the fundamentals involved here, what you actually need is for the OS to refuse to implement any syscalls, and not share an address space. A process is already a hermetically sealed sandbox. Running untrusted code in a process is safe. But then the kernel comes along and pokes holes in your sandbox without your permission. On Linux you should be able to turn off the holes by using seccomp.
- amitlimaye 6mo agoseccomp is a very coarse filter and a very limited action set. think what you could do if you could see the payload of the syscall or change the output of a read syscall depending on agent identity.
