MicroQuickJS

Read Original

The article analyzes MicroQuickJS, a new JavaScript engine from Fabrice Bellard designed for embedded systems with minimal RAM. It investigates its potential as a secure sandbox for untrusted code, testing its built-in memory/time limits, lack of dangerous APIs, and regex engine safety. The author details experiments with Python bindings, CLI tools, and WebAssembly compilation to evaluate its suitability for sandboxing applications.
