Why it matters

LLM code interpreters act as a privilege boundary for agents, and this lesson explains how pentesters probe for sandbox escapes that could expose host secrets, filesystems, and network egress — a key attack surface defenders must harden.

The YouTube video 'AI Offensive Security Lesson 27: Sandbox Escape Testing for Pentesters' is an educational walkthrough teaching five probe families (process execution, filesystem escape, secret/environment access, network egress, and syscall/proc surface) used to test whether an LLM code interpreter sandbox holds. The demo runs against a synthetic mock sandbox in hardened and leaky modes and references OWASP LLM guidance and promptfoo red-teaming.
