Sandboxing r2

radare2 supports sandboxing natively by wrapping all attempts to access the filesystem, network or run programs.

But for some platforms, the kernel provides a native sandboxing experience. ATM only OSX and OpenBSD are supported by r2, feel free to extend the support to Linux and Windows.

OSX

OSX Seatbelt implements a system-level sandbox for applications, the rules are described in a lispy .sb file:

$ sandbox-exec -f radare2.sb r2 -S /bin/ls

NOTE: r2 -S is an alias for -e cfg.sandbox=true

OpenBSD

OpenBSD comes with support for sandboxing using the systrace utility.

$ man systrace

Generate default profile

$ systrace -A r2 /bin/ls

Run with the generated profile

$ systrace -a r2 -S /bin/ls

Other

Only r2's sandbox is supported.

• disables file system access

• disables network connectivity

• disables forks (no shell escapes or debugger)

• activated before showing the prompt

  $ r2 -S /bin/ls
