Re: [eclipse.org-committers] Malicious executable content in Gerrit contributions

Denis,

Surely this is an issue that affects Gerrit as a whole? Have you also addressed this concern to their community mailing list? I would expect that other projects that use Gerrit (e.g. Android, OpenStack) would be even larger targets that Eclipse, and may have already arrived at an approach.

Android certainly has. Android runs each change in its own, brand new, network isolated virtual machine. The system is built on top of Google Compute Engine to spin-up and tear-down new VMs rapidly.

I don't know what OpenStack does.

Chromium OS has taken the approach of requiring a trusted committer to review the change and +1 it before it goes to the build farm.
