As [;;4mbinary_to_term/1[0m, but takes these options:
[;;4m[;;4msafe[0m[0m:
Use this option when receiving binaries from an untrusted
source.
When enabled, it prevents decoding data that can be used to
attack the Erlang system. In the event of receiving unsafe
data, decoding fails with a [;;4mbadarg[0m error.
This prevents creation of new atoms directly, creation of new
atoms indirectly (as they are embedded in certain structures,
such as process identifiers, refs, and funs), and creation of
new external function references. None of those resources are
garbage collected, so unchecked creation of them can exhaust
available memory.

decoded.
