Browsers run it in a sandbox process together with allocator hardening. Most of the bugs then are just crashed of the sandbox

Another option is WASM or WASM-style sandboxes if using another process is undesirable.

One chained sandbox escape away from compromise.

		Which is of course better than zero sandbox escapes.
