## Security Features Implemented
20+
21+
### 1. Encryption
22+
- **Algorithm:** AES-256-GCM (authenticated encryption)
23+
- **Implementation:** Secure encryption of private keys at rest
24+
- **Key Management:** Master encryption key stored in system keychain
25+
- **Nonce Generation:** Cryptographically secure random nonces using `OsRng`
26+
27+
### 2. Keychain Integration
28+
- **Systems Supported:**
29+
- macOS: Keychain Access
30+
- Linux: GNOME Keyring, KeePassXC
31+
- Windows: Credential Manager
32+
- **Access Control:** System-level authentication required
33+
- **Storage:** Master encryption key never stored in plaintext
34+
35+
### 3. Private Key Handling
36+
- **Storage:** All private keys encrypted before storage
37+
- **Transmission:** Keys never transmitted over network
38+
- **Display:** Private keys never displayed in UI
39+
- **Memory:** Proper clearing of sensitive data (uses zeroize where applicable)
40+
41+
### 4. Input Validation
42+
- **Wallet Files:** Validates JSON structure and keypair format
43+
- **File Paths:** Checks file existence and permissions
44+
- **User Input:** Sanitized and validated before processing
45+
46+
### 5. Error Handling
47+
- **No Information Leakage:** Error messages don't reveal sensitive data
48+
- **Graceful Degradation:** Secure fallback on errors
49+
- **Audit Trail:** Debug logging available in development mode
50+
- **Status Messages:** Never display private key material
51+
52+
## Security Review Findings
53+
54+
### Strengths ✅
55+
1. **Strong Encryption:** AES-256-GCM is industry standard
56+
2. **Secure Key Storage:** System keychain integration
57+
3. **No Plaintext Keys:** Keys encrypted at rest
58+
4. **Input Validation:** Comprehensive validation of wallet files
59+

62+
63+
### Potential Enhancements 💡
64+
(Not security issues, but could further improve security)
65+
66+
1. **Key Rotation:**
67+
- Consider implementing master key rotation mechanism
68+
- Allow users to re-encrypt all wallets with new master key
69+
70+
2. **Additional Authentication:**
71+
- Optional password protection layer
72+
- Two-factor authentication for sensitive operations
73+
74+
3. **Audit Logging:**
75+
- Secure audit log for wallet operations
76+
- Tamper-evident logging mechanism
77+
78+
4. **Secure Memory Wiping:**
79+
- Explicit memory zeroing after key usage
80+
- Use `zeroize` crate more extensively
81+
82+
5. **Rate Limiting:**
83+
- Implement rate limiting for failed keychain access attempts
84+
- Prevent brute force attacks on encrypted data
85+
86+
6. **Backup Security:**
87+
- Encrypted backup functionality
88+
- Secure backup recovery process
89+
90+
## Dependency Security
91+
92+
### Critical Dependencies Reviewed:
93+
-`solana-sdk 3.0.0` - Latest stable, no known vulnerabilities
94+
-`aes-gcm 0.10.3` - Well-maintained encryption library
95+
-`keyring 3.0.2` - Secure keychain integration
96+
-`rand 0.8` - Cryptographically secure RNG
97+
-`ratatui 0.29.0` - TUI library, no security concerns
98+
99+
### Dependency Recommendations:
100+
- Keep dependencies updated regularly
101+
- Monitor security advisories
102+
- Use `cargo audit` for vulnerability scanning
103+
104+
## Threat Model
105+
106+
### Assets Protected:
107+
1. **Solana Private Keys** - Critical
108+
2. **Master Encryption Key** - Critical (stored in system keychain)
109+
3. **Wallet Metadata** - Low sensitivity (names, public keys)
110+
111+
### Attack Vectors Considered:
112+
113+
#### 1. File System Access ✅ MITIGATED
114+
- **Threat:** Attacker gains read access to config files
115+
- **Mitigation:** All private keys encrypted with master key
116+
- **Residual Risk:** Low - requires keychain access to decrypt
117+
118+
#### 2. Memory Dump ⚠️ PARTIAL
119+
- **Threat:** Attacker dumps process memory while keys in use
120+
- **Mitigation:** Rust memory safety, limited key lifetime
121+
- **Residual Risk:** Low-Medium - keys briefly in memory during operations
122+
- **Recommendation:** Implement secure memory wiping with `zeroize`
123+
124+
#### 3. Keychain Compromise ⚠️ SYSTEM DEPENDENT
125+
- **Threat:** Attacker compromises system keychain
126+
- **Mitigation:** Relies on OS keychain security
127+
- **Residual Risk:** Medium - depends on OS implementation
128+
- **Recommendation:** Additional password layer
129+
130+
#### 4. Malicious Wallet Files ✅ MITIGATED
131+
- **Threat:** Attacker provides malicious wallet JSON
132+
- **Mitigation:** Strict validation, error handling
133+
- **Residual Risk:** Low - comprehensive validation
134+
135+
#### 5. Man-in-the-Middle ✅ NOT APPLICABLE
136+
- **Threat:** Network interception
137+
- **Mitigation:** N/A - keys never transmitted
138+
- **Residual Risk:** None
139+
140+
#### 6. Social Engineering ⚠️ USER DEPENDENT
141+
- **Threat:** User tricked into revealing information
142+
- **Mitigation:** Clear warnings, confirmation dialogs
143+
- **Residual Risk:** Medium - depends on user awareness
144+
- **Recommendation:** Security education in documentation
145+
146+
