Hi Domining,

MessagePort WebAPI on Tizen IVI is not using '
platform/core/appfw/message-port', instead it uses :
platfrom/ivi/message-port, which is peer-to-peer DBus based
implementation.
Out of curiosity, and because it is relevant for the security
discussion: can you describe the data flow from Web App through
Crosswalk to a native app listening on a message port? In particular,
which Crosswalk process is contacting the native side, which Smack label
does it have, and where is D-Bus involved in this?

The backend messageport daemon works just as a proxy between two applications. All Tizen applications which required to exchange data via MessagePort will open a connection with the daemon.
It treats both Native and Web applications same.

In crosswalk the xwalk extension process requests(via peer-to-peer dbus socket) the 'messageportd' on behalf of web app to send message-data to peer(running) application. Then the messageport daemon finds the right 'client' based on the requested 'app-id', and signals the app with the message data.

Messageport daemon using 'User' Smack label.
