Subject: bug#45198: 28.0.50; Sandbox mode
Date: Sat, 17 Apr 2021 13:53:34 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <jwv5z0k7qeg.fsf-monnier+emacs@gnu.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <83o8ecvnok.fsf@gnu.org> (Eli Zaretskii's message of "Sat, 17 Apr 2021 20:14:03 +0300")

>> My primary target is `elisp-flymake--batch-compile-for-flymake`.
> What does that mean in practice? what does that "target" require?

It needs to take untrusted ELisp code and run it (with no need for user
interaction) in a way that doesn't introduce any security risk.

Currently the code starts a new Emacs process in batch mode and lets it
do whatever it wants, with all the security problems this entails.

Normally, this untrusted ELisp code (the one present within
`eval-when-compile` and macros defined within the file) limits itself to
quite simple sexp manipulation, so the sandboxing can be quite
restrictive, disallowing things like user interaction, uses of
subprocesses, or writing to files.
