Security

This is experimental developer tooling, not a secure messenger. There are no supported stable security releases or promised response times yet. Use only hardware and peers you own or have permission to test.

Known boundaries

  • The legacy Python defaults deserialize pickle from the peer. Untrusted pickle can execute code. Do not expose that receiver to untrusted devices. JSON-safe defaults and bounded stream parsing need a reviewed migration.
  • Go RFCOMM sending provides no application identity verification, message encryption, replay protection, or delivery acknowledgement. Bluetooth pairing does not establish all of those application guarantees.
  • Daemon access grants radio authority. Use a private 0700 parent directory and a 0600 socket, no public TCP proxy, and no root execution by default. Startup currently removes an existing socket path; do not share it between instances.
  • The cloud planner can send unless --dry-run is supplied. That flag still permits cloud requests and daemon reads. MCP also exposes the send tool without a server-enforced approval gate. Treat device names and tool output as untrusted.
  • Saved plans contain sensitive data; keep them private. Replay uses the live tool registry to enforce its --yes mutation gate, but is not a sandbox.
  • Socket frame size is bounded; connection counts, idle clients, and Linux radio I/O deadlines still need hardening. Do not expose the daemon to hostile clients.

Reporting

Do not post exploit details, credentials, or private payloads in public issues. Use GitHub's Security → Report a vulnerability if enabled. If it is unavailable, open an issue containing only a request for a private reporting channel; a maintainer must arrange that channel before you send details. No private email address or security response SLA is implied here.

Ordinary crashes with non-sensitive, synthetic inputs belong in the bug form. Any future secure-chat claim requires a threat model, vetted cryptography, negative tests, and independent review.
