The framework is secured by a three-layer protection mechanism:
- sandbox isolation: Runs code in Docker containers by default, restricts filesystem access and network permissions via the
deluser ${USER} sudoRemove administrator privileges completely. - Input Filtering: Normalized checksums on input paths to file processing modules to prevent directory traversal attacks.
- execution monitoring: The code is generated to run in a restricted environment (e.g. Firejail) and the process is terminated as soon as abnormal behavior is triggered (e.g. an attempt to invoke a system command).
In particular, the project documentation emphasizes that sensitive data should be handled by 1) disabling tool-call permissions on the model 2) using a separate network namespace and 3) regularly reviewing the generated code. These measures allow the framework to meet security compliance requirements in both academic and commercial scenarios.
