Merge Risk: Minimal · up to f7e24

This release is documentation and version bumps only. The release notes now describe the limits of the LAN fence accurately, so the change is ready to merge.

Security architecture risk: Low · up to c9f2c

This release changes version labels and release guidance rather than the protections themselves. Existing isolation and credential-storage limitations remain, including older installations that require manual redeployment.

Retained concerns
No architecture-level concerns identified.

Security review details

Security Blast Radius

• inferred — The relevant attack scope is an installation's host and reachable LAN or forwarded services, plus networks accessible through its selected proxy. Credential-file exposure additionally requires access to the corresponding local files. The inspected comparison does not add fleet-wide authority, new privileged callers or additional reachable networks.

Security Findings and Attack Paths

• observed — Two retained findings concern existing limits behind the new fence assurances. Public-IP filtering covers one learned IPv4 address, leaving an initial-lookup window and additional WAN addresses outside that protection. Losing the fence table also does not universally isolate earners: the existing documentation identifies host access, one-way LAN UDP and externally supplied masquerade as exceptions. These conditions are unchanged from the PR base.
• observed — The retained proxy finding concerns an existing distinction between local egress containment and proxy-side destination filtering. SOCKS5 and HTTP proxies can expose private destinations that the proxy permits; the existing documentation explicitly assigns that restriction to proxy policy. Tailscale has a stronger documented private-range policy. No proxy implementation or dependency selection changes in this PR.
• observed — The retained Windows upgrade finding concerns legacy Mysterium launches that can retain pre-userspace arguments and lack current firewall metadata. Start reloads persisted launch settings rather than reconstructing them from the current catalog, so restarting is not a security migration. This lifecycle behavior predates the PR; the new notes acknowledge the required redeployment.
• observed — The retained credential finding accompanies a broad at-rest encryption statement. Database credentials use AES-GCM, but native-service environments can contain credentials in permission-restricted, unencrypted state.json. The master key can also fall back to a local 0600 file. These storage paths and the earlier README's similar assurance predate this PR; no new secret recipient or storage exposure was established.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

• observed — Important countercontrols remain in place: the isolated Docker network disables Docker masquerade and inter-container communication, validates required network options, and gives the fence helper bounded network-administration privileges. Proxy documentation specifies firewall-before-readiness ordering and removes network-administration capabilities from earners. These controls narrow direct bypass opportunities but do not erase the documented failure-state and proxy-side exceptions.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

• observed — Current Windows Mysterium redeployment selects userspace arguments and installs the required firewall rule before launch; rule failure prevents the new process from starting. Start and supervised recovery preserve deployment-pinned settings rather than upgrading legacy settings. A failed redeploy can leave the service stopped; automatic rollback to the old process was not established.

Full details: Title check

Explanation

The title names the main change: the project is being declared stable as Desktop 1.0, and the changeset bumps the version from 0.10.1 to 1.0.0 in package.json, frontend/package.json, and wails.json. The changeset also adds release notes, a 1.0 README section, and a What's new document describing LAN fencing and proxied copies, which the title's rationale covers. The title is specific, a single sentence, and it uses the conventional commit breaking-change marker. It is somewhat long (99 characters), but it stays on the main change.

Full details: Docstring Coverage

Explanation

Review comments at @docs/whats-new-1.0.md:
- Around line 67-68: Revise the exit-IP claim in the tunnel startup description
to say the distinct-IP comparison is performed only when the app knows this
computer’s IP; keep the 45-second timing claim without implying that the
comparison is guaranteed when local-IP lookup fails.
- Line 154: Update the “Nothing to do” section to tell users with pre-v0.10.1
ProxyBase deployments to redeploy with a fresh Access Token; retain the existing
guidance for users who do not need this upgrade action.
- Line 46: Update the OS keychain entry in the 1.0 release notes to document the
`config.MasterKey` fallback: when the keychain is unavailable, the key is stored
in `.credential_key` with `0600` permissions and can be included in a
data-directory backup.
- Line 45: Qualify the “Credentials encrypted at rest” statement in the release
notes to clarify that native-service environments may store credentials
unencrypted in native/state.json, and advise readers to protect copies of that
file.
- Around line 21-22: Update the NAT loopback explanation in the “computer itself
and its public IPv4” passage to qualify the protection: state that a forwarded
LAN port may be reachable through the public address until the first lookup
succeeds, and that the drop covers only one public IPv4, so other public IPs may
still allow NAT loopback.
- Around line 22-23: Update the missing-table guarantee in the “What’s New” text
to state that earners may still reach the host and send one-way UDP to the LAN,
and that a separate host masquerade rule may permit other traffic; remove the
unconditional claim that a missing table prevents LAN access.
- Around line 61-64: Update the “Proxied copies” description to warn that SOCKS5
and HTTP proxies may allow access to private networks reachable from the proxy;
advise users to choose a proxy that rejects private destinations.
- Around line 160-161: Update the Windows Mysterium upgrade note to tell users
who deployed before the userspace change to redeploy, and state that until they
do, VPN customers could reach their LAN and tailnet. Replace the surrounding
“Nothing to do” wording with a summary that makes clear some changes require
action.

Review comments at @README.md:
- Line 23: Qualify the LAN-isolation claim in the README to state that isolation
applies only when the network fence is active; note that Podman’s default auto
mode may deploy without it, older installations require “Turn on isolation,” and
host-networked services are excluded. Link the qualification to the isolation
limits in the configuration documentation.
