sandbox.lua
|
|
===========
|
|
|
|
A pure-lua solution for running untrusted Lua code.
|
|
|
|
For now, sandbox.lua only works with Lua 5.1.x.
|
|
|
|
Usage
|
|
=====
|
|
|
|
local sandbox = require 'sandbox'
|
|
|
|
-- sandbox can handle both strings and functions
|
|
local msg = sandbox(function() return 'this is untrusted code' end)
|
|
local msg2 = sandbox("return 'this is also untrusted code'")
|
|
|
|
sandbox(function()
|
|
-- see sandbox.lua for a list of safe and unsafe operations
|
|
return ('I can use safe operations, like string.upper'):upper()
|
|
end)
|
|
|
|
-- Attempting to invoke unsafe operations (such as os.execute) is not possible
|
|
sandbox(function()
|
|
os.execute('rm -rf /') -- this will throw an error, no damage don
|
|
end)
|
|
|
|
-- It is not possible to exhaust the machine with infinite loops; the following
|
|
-- will throw an error after invoking 500000 instructions:
|
|
sandbox('while true do end')
|
|
|
|
-- The amount of instructions executed can be tweaked via the quota option
|
|
sandbox('while true do end', {quota=10000}) -- throw error after 10000 instructions
|
|
|
|
-- It is also possible to use the env option to add additional variables to the environment
|
|
sandbox('return foo', {env = {foo = 'This was on the environment'}})
|
|
|
|
