We need to use '-I' switch to explicitly append Perl module include path to invoke some Perl scripts such like following: > COMMAND ${PERL_EXECUTABLE} -I${WEBCORE_DIR}/bindings/scripts ${NAMES_GENERATOR} --input ${_infile} --outputDir ${DERIVED_SOURCES_WEBCORE_DIR} This can be solved by using 'use lib'. > use lib $FindBin::Bin Documentation: http://perldoc.perl.org/lib.html Some scripts already do this. For example, build-webkit do that. https://trac.webkit.org/browser/trunk/Tools/Scripts/build-webkit?rev=204444#L41 I'd like to change following script files: Source/WebCore/bindings/scripts/generate-bindings.pl Source/WebCore/bindings/scripts/preprocess-idls.pl Source/WebCore/css/makegrammar.pl Source/WebCore/css/makeprop.pl Source/WebCore/css/makevalues.pl Source/WebCore/dom/make_dom_exceptions.pl Source/WebCore/dom/make_event_factory.pl Source/WebCore/dom/make_names.pl Source/WebCore/page/make_settings.pl

We need this because in some systems, like Debian, perl is configured to no longer include '.' in @INC by default for security reasons, see https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2016-1238

There aren't differences in security perspective. One should not execute WebKit's build scripts in an untrusted directory.
