We are building a kind of wiki engine and Sphinx seems like the perfect 
tool for our project, given a complicated list of requirements we have.


So the question is how safe it would be to run sphinx-build then make (both 
for LaTeX and html outputs) on an untrusted directory provided by an 
unknown user.

Note that this will not be Phython documentation project, so there will be 
no need to run python scripts or activate features such as doctest or 
autodoc. However, support for math is vital.


We would specially like to know:

   1. In case it is not safe, what are the threats and is there a simple 
   way to mitigate the risks?
   2. In case it is safe, what about including extensions? We are specially 
   interested in the tikz extension (in the tikz's extenstion 
   documentation, they claim that tikz is supported in readthedocs).
