I used E in the 90s: http://erights.org/ I haven't kept up with newer systems but I've heard of https://github.com/endojs/endo and just came across http://reports-archive.adm.cs.cmu.edu/anon/home/anon/isr2017... (which says "in the style of the E programming language" -- that's as far as I've read) while looking that up. WebAssembly was designed to follow the same capability security principles. CHERI too as someone else just brought up. Yet another newer capability system in progress -- I don't know what it can do today or if it tackles this particular problem but it sounds cool: https://spritelyproject.org/
