Open Source Go Libraries for Linux

Coraza is an open-source, enterprise-grade, high-performance Web Application Firewall (WAF) ready to protect your beloved applications. It is written in Go, supports ModSecurity SecLang rulesets and is 100% compatible with the OWASP Core Rule Set. Coraza is a drop-in alternative to replace the soon-to-be abandoned Trustwave ModSecurity Engine and supports industry-standard SecLang rule sets. Coraza runs the OWASP Core Rule Set (CRS) to protect your web applications from a wide range of attacks, including the OWASP Top Ten, with a minimum of false alerts. CRS protects from many common attack categories including: SQL Injection (SQLi), Cross Site Scripting (XSS), PHP & Java Code Injection, HTTPoxy, Shellshock, Scripting/Scanner/Bot Detection & Metadata & Error Leakages. Coraza is a library at its core, with many integrations to deploy on-premise Web Application Firewall instances.

age is a security-oriented tool and library by Filo Sottile. age is a simple, modern, secure encryption utility (and Go library) that emphasizes minimal configuration and strong defaults. It provides small explicit keys, no complex options, and is designed for UNIX-style composability; you can pipe into it, integrate it into scripts, etc. It supports a clearly defined format and promotes interoperability across implementations (there are Rust, TypeScript, etc). The project is well-suited for personal data encryption, backup use-cases, scripting encryption workflows, and embedding encryption in tools. Because of its design philosophy, it avoids the bloat of many older encryption utilities while maintaining strong cryptographic hygiene. It’s especially useful for developers or system administrators who want to adopt encryption without learning a multitude of options.

An authorization library that supports access control models like ACL, RBAC, ABAC for Golang, Java, C/C++, Node.js, Javascript, PHP, Laravel, Python, .NET (C#), Delphi, Rust, Ruby, Swift (Objective-C), Lua (OpenResty), Dart (Flutter) and Elixir. In Casbin, an access control model is abstracted into a CONF file based on the PERM metamodel (Policy, Effect, Request, Matchers). So switching or upgrading the authorization mechanism for a project is just as simple as modifying a configuration. Besides memory and file, Casbin policy can be stored into lots of places. Currently, dozens of databases are supported, from MySQL, Postgres, Oracle to MongoDB, Redis, Cassandra, AWS S3. Check the full supported list at: adapters. Casbin is implemented in Golang, Java, PHP and Node.js. All implementations share the same API and behaviors. You can learn Casbin once and use it everywhere. In Casbin, the policy storage is implemented as an adapter(aka middleware for Casbin).

GopenPGP V3 is a high-level OpenPGP cryptographic library developed by ProtonMail that provides a user-friendly API for common encryption and signing operations in Go, abstracting the complexity of the underlying OpenPGP standards and golang crypto primitives. This library lets developers perform key generation, message encryption and decryption, digital signing, and signature verification with straightforward functions that hide much of the boilerplate and nuance typically required when working directly with OpenPGP implementations. Built on top of a forked version of the Go crypto library, gopenpgp supports current OpenPGP RFC standards and includes examples for working with password-based encryption and PGP keys, as well as detached and inline signatures. Because it’s designed for broad use, the library also targets go-mobile compatibility, meaning it can support mobile app use cases alongside server and desktop tooling.

Keybase is secure messaging and file-sharing. We use public key cryptography to ensure your messages stay private. Even we can’t read your chats. Keybase works for families, roommates, clubs, and groups of friends, too. Keybase connects to public identities, too. You can connect with communities from Twitter, Reddit, and elsewhere. Don’t live dangerously when it comes to documents. Keybase can store your group’s photos, videos, and documents with end-to-end encryption. You can set a timer on your most sensitive messages. This distribution includes cryptographic software. The country in which you currently reside may have restrictions on the import, possession, use, and/or re-export to another country, of encryption software. BEFORE using any encryption software, please check your country's laws, regulations and policies concerning the import, possession, or use, and re-export of encryption software.

The security first OAuth2 & OpenID Connect framework for Go. Built simple, powerful, and extensible. This library implements peer-reviewed IETF RFC6749, counterfeits weaknesses covered in peer-reviewed IETF RFC6819 and countermeasures various database attack scenarios, keeping your application safe when that hacker penetrates or leaks your database. OpenID Connect is implemented according to OpenID Connect Core 1.0 incorporating errata set 1 and includes all flows: code, implicit, and hybrid. OAuth2 and OpenID Connect are difficult protocols. If you want quick wins, we strongly encourage you to look at Hydra. Hydra is a secure, high-performance, cloud native OAuth2 and OpenID Connect service that integrates with every authentication method imaginable and is built on top of Fosite.
