Re: Testing if Perl Code is Valid

If you

only accept Perl-code in your configs with lower case letters and

can restrict the load paths for useable moduls and

are sure that there won't be any untrusted code in the file system accessible with do š AND

I haven't forgotten any other back-doors ...

... you should have a good chance that a syntax check with perl-c will not execute code.

No guaranty given!!!

(Looks like I invented a new kind of perl game ... :)

Cheers Rolf

š) IMHO shouldn't be a problem anyway beacuse do is run-time only.

Sorry, unfortunately not that simple! There's a way to have compile-time execution just with lower cased code! :( Never mind! Cheers Rolf	[reply]
