gollark: Also, possibly partly due to point 3, many (dynamic) languages actually implement YAML parsing in a way which allows arbitrary code execution by default. I think Python's yaml library does it unsafely by default (EDIT: see here: https://www.arp242.net/yaml-config.html though PyYaml at least appears to be changing this now).
