You mean a VM like the one that contains a 0day that can escape the sandbox that gets found every year at pwn2own?

Presumably you’re also using a browser to view this web page. There have also been vulnerabilities in that. You have to draw a line somewhere.

Maybe, but the sort of 0days you're talking about aren't exploited in any meaningful way for almost all developers.

I run mine as a separate unprivileged user. (No VM.) Am I pwned?
