deuxfleurs-org/garage: technical due diligence, read from its repository
What Borehole read in deuxfleurs-org/garage's code and history at 96a71b4: its licence, security advisories, releases, review practice, tests, dependencies and operations. Every finding cites the file and line it rests on. The full report also covers the team and asks the questions the code cannot answer.

Architecture & Codebase — including AI provenance
strongsrc/api/admin/api.rs is 1,550 lines, 10× this codebase's median file
adequateThe median source file here is 145 lines. 1 file exceed 1,450 lines, the largest being 1,550. Size is not a defect on its own — some problems genuinely live in one place — but these are where merge conflicts, review fatigue and single-owner knowledge concentrate, and they are the first thing that slows an inheriting engineer down.

Engineering Process & SDLC Maturity
strongNo finding.
Product & Engineering Maturity
adequate6% of bug fixes add or change a test
adequateOf 161 fixes in the last 24 months, 10 touched a test. A fix without the test that would have caught the bug can quietly come back, and the suite never learns from what went wrong.

Security & Reliability Posture
adequate1 Dockerfile runs the application as root
adequateNo USER instruction switches away from root, so the process runs with full privileges inside the container. It is a one-line fix and an ordinary expectation, which is why its absence is worth asking about: it usually says more about whether anyone has reviewed the deployment than about this container specifically.
Dockerfile — runs as root |
13 locked dependencies have published vulnerabilities, 1 high or critical
adequate13 of 540 locked dependencies match 22 published advisories in OSV, 1 of them rated high or critical. A lockfile says which version is installed, not whether the flawed code is reachable from this product, so each needs a look. Most are fixed by an upgrade, and the advisory names the version. This lockfile pins development tools alongside what ships and does not say which is which, so some of these may never reach a user.
Cargo.lock — rustls-webpki 0.101.7: GHSA-82j2-j2ch-gfr8 (high), fixed in 0.103.13 |
Cargo.lock — rustls 0.23.44: GHSA-2mjx-qc3c-rqvc (moderate), fixed in 0.23.45 |
Cargo.lock — ctutils 0.4.2: RUSTSEC-2026-0385 (unrated), fixed in 0.4.4 |
Relicensed: GPL-3.0 → AGPL-3.0 (2021-03-18)
adequateThe root licence changed 1 time(s). The latest terms restrict what users, hosts or a buyer may do in ways the earlier ones did not. Code taken under the old terms stays under them, so both matter in diligence.
Observability & Operations
not assessableNot rated: only 4 of 16 checks could reach a conclusion here; the rest do not apply to this repository or could not read it.
