Details

Project "Toolkit for sandboxing third-parties libraries in Firefox" described here
https://wiki.mozilla.org/Community:SummerOfCode19

This tracks the progress of evaluating existing WASM compiler toolchains to produce "sandboxed" assembly, i.e., assembly that cannot read/write outside a given memory range and cannot execute code outside the sandbox except functions that are explicitly permitted.

Due to the "in development" state of WASM, this task may impose additional requirements on WASM compiler (which are consistent with the spec) but are unimplemented as the browser does not currently rely on these. One example is changing the list of WASM import functions during execution of the WASM code.
