Privacy and Security ==================== Xonitic runs on top of the DarkPlaces Engine. When connecting to a server, the client may download and run QuakeC code for the gameplay. The security policies are: - QC code can't create any symlinks. - QC code can read anything below ~/.xonotic/*/ including stuff pointed-to by symlinks (which, as the game can't create any, would have to have been placed by the user). It cannot read user's private key in ~/.xonotic/*.d0si. - QC code can write anything below ~/.xonotic/data including user's config. - Paths are properly sanitized according to this policy. - QC code can send arbitrary data back anywhere (by using the "connect" command). Therefore, do not put any files you don't want to expose under ~/.xonotic Reference --------- divVerent's [answer](http://forums.xonotic.org/showthread.php?tid=5427&pid=71595#pid71595) in the forum
