Security: itsVentie/PassClip

Security

SECURITY.md

Security Model

PassClip operates under the following security assumptions:

  1. Zero Disk Persistence: No unencrypted or encrypted secrets are written to persistent storage. All data resides in volatile memory (RAM).
  2. Memory Zeroization: Cryptographic keys and sensitive plaintext segments are explicitly overwritten with zeroes when dropped to mitigate memory forensic exploitation.
  3. Local Scope: The IPC channel and WebAuthn verification server bind strictly to the local loopback interface (127.0.0.1).

Supported Versions

Only the latest release version receives security updates and patches.
