Not many people realize both bash and zsh can add additional functionality through compiled extensions, and also debuggers like bashdb and zshdb exist.
hulitu•7mo ago
That's why people carying about security shall compile their own bash and disable those features.
burnt-resistor•7mo ago
Doubtful. Do you? What's the exact script you use?
burnt-resistor•7mo ago
2/ zshdb doesn't require any special re-compilation to function. bashdb requires a nonstandard bash recompilation with --enable-debugger. bash loadables and zsh loadable modules are enabled by default and I don't see a clearly-documented method to disable them on bash and it requires a nonstandard --disable-dynamic for zsh.
