gollark: Sorry, blacklisting instead of whitelisting.
gollark: Unfortunately they used whitelisting instead of blacklisting in some bits so eventually after CC updates a few functions crept through which can allow arbitrary code execution out of the sandbox.
gollark: The developers were pretty sensible and made it run sandboxed Lua.
gollark: > Does it run arbitrary lua or something?Not *entirely*.
