Note that with the recent-ish push towards having not-quite-trusted or even not-at-all-trusted applications running in local containers, local attacks over the network are more of a threat than in the past. (Not in the sense that running untrusted software locally any more of a threat with containers, but in the sense that we used to just say “don’t do that” and now some are promising that this is, or will be, safe.)
