From 01fdcc1311aa198d8094bc659ed3d12c4dec8e2e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tom Date: Thu, 10 Sep 2026 06:51:49 -0700 Subject: [PATCH 1/2] Name the search credential for what it has to be T118 / WI-20. vite.config.ts sets envPrefix: ["VITE_", "TAURI_"], so TAURI_MEILI_API_KEY -- read in Search.tsx through import.meta.env -- is inlined into the bundle at build time. Demonstrated rather than asserted: building with a sentinel value puts it in the shipped JavaScript. TAURI_MEILI_SEARCH_KEY=SENTINEL_KEY_9f3a1c npx vite build grep -ro 'SENTINEL_KEY_9f3a1c' dist/ -> 4 occurrences dist/assets/index-468969ec.js CORRECTING THE THREAT MODEL: T118 says the key "ships inside every published binary and web build". That is not true today. The release workflow has never run, and the only release is a draft with zero assets, so nothing has been distributed and this key has not leaked. The finding is latent, not realised -- the design guarantees exposure on the first release, which has not happened. Fixing it now costs nothing; after a release it would also cost a rotation. There is no way to hide a credential in a client that queries a search server directly. The Rust binary is no better a hiding place than the JavaScript -- `strings` reads both. So the shipped value must be one the client is ALLOWED to hold: a Meilisearch search key, scoped read-only to the indexes this app searches, never the master key, which can create keys, write documents and read every index on the instance. The variable is now TAURI_MEILI_SEARCH_KEY in both the workflow and the component, so the name states the requirement at the point where someone would otherwise paste the wrong value. Comments in both places say the value is inlined and public by construction. Verified: npx tsc --noEmit exits 0; vite build succeeds and the value still reaches the client. BEFORE MERGING: the repository secret must be renamed TAURI_MEILI_API_KEY -> TAURI_MEILI_SEARCH_KEY, and its contents confirmed to be a search key rather than the master key. The workflow reads the new name.
