Running Untrusted Python Code

Read Original

The article details a technical approach to running untrusted Python code for a side-project. Instead of using a full VM, the author creates a sandbox by spawning a separate process, applying resource limits, and using Linux's seccomp to restrict system calls. It discusses common pitfalls in Python sandboxing and provides a live demo and source code for security testing.
