onlyoffice/documentserver: technical due diligence, read from its repository
What Borehole read in onlyoffice/documentserver's code and history at c4ad98d: 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.

What the repository says
.gitmodules:1: 18 submodule(s) this survey does not read: core, core-fonts, dictionaries
Architecture & Codebase — including AI provenance
adequateThe repository begins with most of itself already written
adequateThe first commit carries 9,229,832 lines — 84% of every line ever added. Whatever happened before that commit happened somewhere this repository cannot show you, so the early history is not available as evidence of how the system was designed.
| 2014-07-05T18:22:49+00:00; +9,229,832 across 17348 files; subject: 'init repo' |
Commit messages are templated rather than written
adequate39% of commit subjects are exact repeats of another subject, and subject length varies by only 15.8 characters. A log written by someone explaining their reasoning to a future reader does not look like this. The log is therefore weak evidence of intent, whatever the code is like.

not assessableNot rated: only 8 of 19 checks could reach a conclusion here; the rest do not apply to this repository or could not read it.
Security & Reliability Posture
adequate3 advisories against this project in the last 24 months
adequateThe newest was published on 2026-10-14. A project that publishes advisories is telling its users about its fixes, and the count and pace say how much security work it carries. Whether 3 of them are fixed in the code you ship could not be told from this history: its version is only known to be at least 10.0.0. Answer lives in: the release you run, set against each fixed version.
