Tritium is pre-1.0 (v0.x tags). There's no long-term-support branch: fixes
land on main and go out in the next tagged release.
Open an issue for anything that doesn't need to stay private. For something sensitive, use this repository's private vulnerability reporting under GitHub's Security tab instead of a public issue.
What this project actually claims, and where it's enforced:
AUTH_PASSWORD/PEER_PASSWORDgating andUSER_<name>key-prefix ACLs (internal/server/acl.go,internal/server/commands.go)- TLS and mutual TLS between nodes and clients (
internal/server/tls.go) - end-to-end AES-256-GCM sealing in
pkg/tritium(pkg/tritium/crypto.go) — a node never holds the key or sees plaintext for a value sealed that way; see the README's Security section for the wire format - the messenger's X3DH/Double Ratchet session and header encryption
(
pkg/messenger), which keeps mailbox contents and metadata from the node relaying them
The store itself is not a trust boundary: it's RAM-only and every key
expires, but a node with AUTH_PASSWORD (or none set) can read anything not
sealed client-side, same as any Redis-protocol server can read what it's
handed in the clear.
