Security problem(Please help me)

[annguyenvan]

Hello everyone, I'm working on a mod for the engine I'm developing. However, I'm getting a security error, even though I've declared it in minetest.conf and rebuilt it so the dylib recognizes it.

Example usage in your mod:

Code: Select all

local ie = core.request_insecure_environment()
ie.require("your_dylib_library_or_whatever.dylib")

ie.io.open("/path/that/you/couldnt/access.txt")

local ie = core.request_insecure_environment()
ie.require("your_dylib_library_or_whatever.dylib")

ie.io.open("/path/that/you/couldnt/access.txt")

Does that mean the engine doesn't allow requiring C/C++ files? Because the way I connect Lua to C/C++ is the same as you described.

Luanti mods do not ordinarily touch native code. To add more capabilities, if you really need them, one should use external Lua modules like this mod.
