🔐 Security vulnerabilities

If you discover a security vulnerability within TorrentPier, please follow our security policy, so we can address it promptly.

📌 Our recommendations

  • It's recommended to run cron.php. - For significant tracker speed increase it ay be required to replace the built-in cron.php in operating system daemon.
  • Local configuration copy. - You can override the settings using the local configuration file library/config.local.php.
