Safety

Safe Pickle

Pickle is convenient but unsafe for untrusted data. DictSQLite v2 can restrict allowed types with Safe Pickle policies.

db = DictSQLite("safe.db", storage_mode="pickle", safe_pickle=True)

Encryption

db = DictSQLite("secure.db", encryption_password="change-me")

Encryption uses AES-256-GCM. Keep passwords and keys in environment variables or secret management, not source code.

Recommendations

• Do not load untrusted pickle data
• Always call close() when persistence matters
• Keep benchmark alerts informational in GitHub Actions
