Re: Homegrown Pseudo-Tainting

[ChOas]

Just to add to all the posters above, who focus more on
untainting the data, perldoc perlsec gives this example
to beforehand check if the data is actually tainted:

sub is_tainted {
 return ! eval {
  join('',@_), kill 0;
  1;
 };
}

print "profeth still\n" if /bird|devil/;

Except that will only do what you want when you have used the '-T' switch. And as the person who asked the question said they can't use '-T' ..
