I built Secure Config Runner because running arbitrary configuration files, especially those from external sources, can be risky. This Python script aims to mitigate those risks.
It works by sanitizing inputs and restricting potentially dangerous commands that could be executed by the configuration script. This provides a safer environment for running tasks that require external or untrusted configuration files.
If you manage infrastructure, deploy applications, or run automation scripts where configuration integrity is important, this tool can add a layer of safety. It's designed for developers and sysadmins who need to execute configuration scripts but want to minimize the attack surface.
Think of it as a sandboxing layer specifically for Python-based configuration execution, preventing common pitfalls like unintended file access or system command injection.
Secure Config Runner helps ensure that your configuration files do what they are intended to do, and nothing more.
