Absolute no possible exploit path there at all
2 comments

Unless you are reviewing the source of everything and compiling it all yourself, then you're executing someone else's binary.
Is it really an exploit when you're explicitly running code that you expressly trust (even if you probably shouldn't necessarily)?
Isn't an exploit explicitly a subversion of trust?

If you shouldn't trust it but you do anyway and someone uses that against you - they exploited your trust.
