Feature name
- Support for Unix Sockets for the serve command
Feature function
- Serve the vault on a Unix Socket instead of localhost, which makes the content of the vault only accessible to the computer running the instance
- Increases the security by preventing other devices on the local network from being able to make requests to the BW Serve API
- For context, I am working on an alternative GUI for BW on Linux, and it was suggested to me that I use Unix Sockets instead of an HTTP server on localhost that is accessible from any device on that network.
- Could be a --unix-socket flag
