Security Overview
Reticulum MeshChatX is designed with a high degree of security in mind, leveraging multiple layers of protection and modern security practices. Detailed security enhancements are documented in the CHANGELOG.md and README.md.
Core Security Features
- ASAR Integrity Validation: Utilizes Electron 39 features to protect the application against tampering.
- Backend Binary Verification: Generates a SHA-256 manifest of the unpacked Python backend during build and verifies it on every startup.
- Data-at-Rest Integrity Monitoring: Snapshots the state of identities and database files on clean shutdown and warns if they were modified while the app was closed.
- 3-Layer CSP Hardening: Multi-layered Content Security Policy protection across the entire application stack:
- Backend Server CSP: Applied via security middleware to all HTTP responses.
- Electron Session CSP: Shell-level fallback CSP applied via
webRequest.onHeadersReceived. - Loading Screen CSP: Bootloader CSP defined in HTML meta tags.
- Hardened Electron Environment: Hardened security by disabling
runAsNodeandnodeOptionsenvironment variables via Electron Fuses. - Rootless Docker Images: Support for running in restricted environments with rootless container images.
Automated Security Measures
The project employs continuous security monitoring and testing:
- Security Scanning: Automated daily scans using OSV-Scanner and Trivy for container image vulnerabilities.
- Pinned Actions: All CI/CD workflows use pinned actions with full URLs to forked, vetted actions hosted on our Gitea instance (
git.quad4.io) to prevent supply chain attacks. - Extensive Testing & Fuzzing: Comprehensive backend benchmarking suite with high-precision timing, memory delta tracking, and extreme stress modes to ensure stability and prevent resource exhaustion.
- Linting & Code Quality: Strict linting rules and static analysis are enforced on every push.
