You are completely correct.

The safe execution of any untrusted Turing complete code is a pipe dream.

You, at least, need a clean sheet CPU design starting from ISA, and basic logic operations formally validated against instruction level analysis to have a fighting chance.

But even such chip do get pwned, as shown by key recovery from credit cards in the wild.
