Subject: [FD] ipython3 may execute code from the current working directory
Summary: under certain circumstances, ipython3 may execute
code from the current working directory. This might be a
problem if the current working directory is not trusted.
python3 is safe.
Tested on ubuntu 20.
The following session illustrates it:
joro@...lokote:~/tests/dir2$ pwd
/home/joro/tests/dir2
joro@...lokote:~/tests/dir2$ ipython3 --version
7.13.0
joro@...lokote:~/tests/dir2$ ls ~/tests/dir1
a.py joro-orig.py __pycache__
joro@...lokote:~/tests/dir2$ ls ~/tests/dir2
joro.py __pycache__
joro@...lokote:~/tests/dir2$ cat ~/tests/dir1/a.py
try: import joro
except: print("error in import")
joro@...lokote:~/tests/dir2$ cat ~/tests/dir2/joro.py
print("imported joro :)")
joro@...lokote:~/tests/dir2$ ipython3 ~/tests/dir1/a.py
imported joro :)
joro@...lokote:~/tests/dir2$
