DropDroid is in early development. Please report security issues against the latest main branch.
Please do not open a public issue for sensitive security reports.
Send the maintainer a private report through GitHub security advisories if enabled on the repository, or contact the repository owner directly.
- DropDroid is designed for trusted local connections where the computer can reach the phone by local IP.
- Files are transferred directly over the local network without cloud storage or internet upload.
- Uploads require QR pairing and HMAC-signed transfer headers.
- The current local protocol authenticates transfers but does not encrypt file contents.
- Android always requires user confirmation before installing APK files.
Avoid using DropDroid on untrusted public networks until encrypted transport is added.
