The drivers had no cryptographic identity at all. Every build minted a fresh `CN=punktfunk-driver` cert (build-pf-vdisplay.ps1, build-gamepad-drivers.ps1), and install.rs `trust_cert` adds whatever .cer it finds in the unpacked bundle to machine Root AND TrustedPublisher. So the signature vouched for nothing an attacker couldn't restage — replace the bundle, ship your own cert beside your own driver, install proceeds identically. It was ceremony to make PnP install quietly. Worse, it leaked. `trust_cert` runs once per driver (install.rs:102 and :155), so every upgrade added TWO more self-signed root CAs under the same name, and nothing ever removed them: uninstalling punktfunk left trust behind that the user had no reason to keep granting. So: both build scripts now take a stable cert via DRIVER_CERT_PFX_B64 (they already read the env var — windows-host.yml just never passed it) and fail closed on a v* tag, same rule as the host and MSIX packers. `driver uninstall` purges every `CN=punktfunk-driver` cert from both stores, and `driver install` purges before adding, so an upgrade also collects the historical pile instead of adding to it. Purge-before-add lives ONLY on the pf-vdisplay install path, not the gamepad one. The installer runs vdisplay first and gamepad second; purging in both would have the gamepad leg delete the cert the vdisplay leg just added whenever the two bundles carry different certs — which is exactly what canary's per-build fallback produces. Purging by subject rather than thumbprint is deliberate too: it is what lets one install clean up certs from builds that no longer exist anywhere, and it needs no parsing of certutil's localized output (this module exists because locale-parsed PowerShell broke the driver install on a German box). This does NOT make the driver download authenticated — a self-signed leaf is its own root, so the installer must trust it for the driver to install at all. What it buys is a fingerprint we can publish out-of-band so a substituted driver is detectable, an allowlistable publisher, continuity across releases, and no root accumulation. Attestation signing remains the real fix; documented as such. Documented the key-custody trade honestly in packaging/windows/README.md: a stable key trusted as a machine root on every install is worth stealing in a way a throwaway never was, with no revocation path. CI secret only. ⚠️ The secrets must exist before the next v* tag or the release will fail — that is the guard working, and the generation runbook is in that README. The fingerprint line there is a placeholder until the key is generated. Verified: punktfunk-host compiles clean on the windows-amd64 runner with this install.rs (exit 0, no warnings); both build scripts parse; cargo fmt clean.

# Security Policy
|
|
|
|
punktfunk is a low-latency desktop/game streaming stack. A host is effectively remote control of a
|
|
machine, so we take security reports seriously and appreciate responsible disclosure.
|
|
|
|
## Reporting a vulnerability
|
|
|
|
**Please report security issues privately by email to security@punktfunk.com.**
|
|
|
|
Do **not** open a public issue, pull request, or chat/forum post for a suspected vulnerability — that
|
|
exposes other users before a fix exists.
|
|
|
|
### What to include
|
|
|
|
The more of this you can give us, the faster we can act:
|
|
|
|
- The component and version (e.g. `punktfunk-host 0.9.0`, Windows or Linux, which client).
|
|
- The impact — what an attacker can do, and from what position (same LAN, a local service account,
|
|
admin, a paired client, …).
|
|
- Steps to reproduce, a proof-of-concept, or a crash/log if you have one.
|
|
- Any suggested fix or mitigation (optional).
|
|
|
|
## What to expect
|
|
|
|
We're a small team, so timelines are best-effort, but we commit to:
|
|
|
|
- **Acknowledge** your report within **3 business days**.
|
|
- Give an **initial assessment** (severity + whether we can reproduce) within about **7 days**.
|
|
- Keep you updated, and tell you when a fix ships.
|
|
- **Credit** you in the advisory / release notes when the fix is public — unless you'd rather stay
|
|
anonymous.
|
|
|
|
We practice **coordinated disclosure**: please give us reasonable time to release a fix before
|
|
publishing details. We aim to resolve valid issues within **90 days** and will agree a disclosure
|
|
date with you.
|
|
|
|
## Scope
|
|
|
|
In scope — the code in this repository:
|
|
|
|
- The host (`punktfunk-host`), its Windows drivers, and the protocol/crypto core (`punktfunk-core`).
|
|
- The native clients (Apple, Linux, Windows, Android), the web management console, and the management
|
|
API.
|
|
|
|
Known limits — documented behavior, not vulnerabilities (see
|
|
https://docs.punktfunk.unom.io/docs/security):
|
|
|
|
- **Admin/SYSTEM already on the host = out of scope.** An attacker who is already administrator or
|
|
SYSTEM on the host owns the machine regardless of punktfunk.
|
|
- **The virtual display is a real monitor** — any process already in the interactive desktop session
|
|
can capture it via the normal OS screen-capture APIs, exactly as it could a physical monitor.
|
|
- **GameStream/Moonlight compatibility** (`--gamestream`) uses legacy encryption and is documented as
|
|
opt-in, trusted-LAN-only.
|
|
- **Public-internet exposure is unsupported** — issues that only arise from exposing the host to the
|
|
WAN are expected; keep the host on a trusted LAN or a VPN.
|
|
|
|
If you're unsure whether something is in scope, report it anyway — we'd rather hear about it.
|
|
|
|
## Verifying what you downloaded
|
|
|
|
Every distribution path is authenticated. Nothing below needs an account or a network round trip to
|
|
us beyond the download itself.
|
|
|
|
- **Release-page downloads** (DMG, MSIX, setup.exe, APK, decky zip, .deb/.rpm) each ship a
|
|
`<file>.sha256` next to them. In your download directory:
|
|
`sha256sum -c punktfunk-1.2.3.dmg.sha256` (macOS: `shasum -a 256 -c …`).
|
|
- **RPMs** from the dnf repo are OpenPGP-signed with `packages@unom.io` (`AF245C506F4E4763`); the
|
|
repo file in [`packaging/rpm/README.md`](packaging/rpm/README.md) sets `gpgcheck=1`, so dnf
|
|
checks every package for you. `rpmkeys --checksig` on a downloaded RPM verifies it by hand.
|
|
- **The Bazzite sysext feed** carries a detached signature over its `SHA256SUMS`, from that same
|
|
key. `punktfunk-sysext` verifies it before installing and refuses a feed it cannot verify — the
|
|
public key is baked into the script rather than fetched from the feed.
|
|
- **Windows installers and MSIX packages** are Authenticode-signed; a release build that cannot
|
|
reach its code-signing certificate fails to build rather than falling back to a self-signed one.
|
|
Check with `Get-AuthenticodeSignature punktfunk-host-setup-1.2.3.exe`.
|
|
- **The Windows drivers** (virtual display, virtual gamepads) are signed with a stable self-signed
|
|
certificate, `CN=punktfunk-driver`, whose fingerprint is published in
|
|
[`packaging/windows/README.md`](packaging/windows/README.md). The installer has to add it to the
|
|
machine's trusted roots for a self-signed driver to install at all, so — unlike the cases above —
|
|
this signature does **not** authenticate the download: it gives the drivers a stable publisher
|
|
identity you can compare against the published fingerprint, and it is removed again on uninstall.
|
|
Verify with `Get-AuthenticodeSignature` on the installed `pf_vdisplay.dll`, or list what is
|
|
trusted with `Get-ChildItem Cert:\LocalMachine\Root | ? Subject -like '*punktfunk*'`.
|
|
|
|
A checksum on its own only tells you the download wasn't corrupted in transit — it says nothing
|
|
about who produced the file, since anyone able to replace an artifact can replace its checksum.
|
|
Where that distinction matters (the update feeds, the package repos), the checksums are covered by
|
|
a signature. If a signature check fails, please don't work around it; report it.
|
|
|
|
## Safe harbor
|
|
|
|
We consider good-faith security research that follows this policy to be authorized, and we won't
|
|
pursue legal action against researchers who:
|
|
|
|
- make a good-faith effort to avoid privacy violations, data loss, and service disruption,
|
|
- only test systems they own or have explicit permission to test,
|
|
- give us reasonable time to remediate before public disclosure,
|
|
- don't exfiltrate more data than needed to demonstrate the issue.
|
|
|
|
Thank you for helping keep punktfunk and its users safe.
