Security

Slink supports user authentication and user approval to prevent unauthorized access to the application. However, it’s recommended to use a reverse proxy like Nginx or Traefik to add additional security features like SSL, rate limiting, etc.

Important

Be aware that as of now, the application does not have any built-in rate limiting or brute force protection.

Tip

If you don’t want to expose the entire application to the public, you can only expose the /image route via the reverse proxy.

Non-Root Container User

By default, the application runs as the root user inside the container. However, it’s recommended to run the application as a non-root user for security reasons.
