Welcome to the TryRuby wiki!

There are a few things you should know about this code.

First, if you don’t run it in a secure environment, you deserve what you get!
This code will let you run system commands.
It will let you read /etc/passwd and other nasties if you simply treat it like any other
website/webapp.This isn’t so much true anymore.

Because of these reasons, I am writing a SELinux policy to accompany this script.
While I have been told it is overkill to also stick this in an xen VM, I am going to do so anyway.
Why not make this an appliance?I will get my hands dirty with SELinux later. It has been
made into a xen image. I will post the config file later, the image its self is a modified image from stacklets

Check back for more details.

Once the hardening is complete and I have it back up on tryruby.sophrinix.com
The next task is to get the R to Ruby bridge going :-)

It is possible to take this code and turn it into a try python or some other lesser language :-P
The real question is why?
