You should really consider removing the "not" from your username, notanoob.
What you're saying is completely fallacious and if javascript's (ES') memory safety was like "curl | bash" then so would be Web Assembly's. It's running in the same sandbox. It doesn't have more access rights. Unless you specifically run it with chrome privileges, it also doesn't have access to chrome specific code.
As for the Stackoverflow post. That one is specific to the Microsoft runtime implementation. It has nothing to do with ES as a language.

The day this hits binutils mainline is the day I will go fork binutils-2.28 and never go back. Webassembly, a "curl | sudo bash" built into your browser.
Their next great achievement will be WebBios, a ftp server with password alphabet and username microsoft with direct access to a uefi shell and efibootmanager tools on it. Built directly into the browser. What could possibly go wrong? It would be 1331 for performance optimizations on a hardware access level. You could run programs in the UEFI mode with 1331 performance. /endrant

A WebAssembly Back-End For The GNU Toolchain
Phoronix: A WebAssembly Back-End For The GNU Toolchain
The WebAssembly efforts so far have been centered around making use of the LLVM compiler infrastructure, but now there are patches for providing partial WASM support atop the GNU toolchain...
