SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Explains how the Tauri runtime authority enforces security policies during IPC execution, detailing ACL-based access control, capability resolution at runtime, scope injection, and command validation.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • ACL-based permissions and capability mapping across windows to prevent unauthorized IPC
  • Runtime scope injection and path/resource enforcement for secure commands
  • Use Case: In a multi-window desktop app, ensure only permitted Tauri commands are invokable by each window.

Quick Start

Start the app and verify that IPC requests are validated by the runtime authority using configured capabilities.

FAQPage Schema
How does the Tauri runtime authority enforce security policies during IPC execution?

The Tauri runtime authority enforces security policies during IPC execution by validating webview requests using ACL-based access control, resolving capabilities at runtime, and checking scopes to determine allowed commands across windows.

How do I prevent unauthorized IPC commands in a multi-window Tauri desktop app?

To prevent unauthorized IPC commands in a multi-window Tauri desktop app, configure capability mappings for each window to ensure only permitted Tauri commands are invokable based on their specific origin and assigned permissions.

How does Tauri handle scope injection and path traversal prevention for secure commands?

Tauri handles scope injection and path traversal prevention by applying runtime scope enforcement and resource validation, ensuring secure commands operate strictly within their allowed path boundaries during execution.

Does Tauri runtime authority support deny precedence and platform targeting for capabilities?

Yes, Tauri runtime authority supports deny precedence and platform targeting, ensuring explicitly denied permissions override allows and capabilities are resolved accurately for specific operating system platforms during command execution.

What is the best way to configure permissions resolution for Tauri webview IPC requests?

The best way to configure permissions resolution for Tauri webview IPC requests is to define ACL-based capabilities that map origins to allowed commands, ensuring the runtime authority validates every execution attempt across windows.
