ZyrenAuth
A modern, high-performance, and privacy-focused server-side authentication platform for Paper.
Overview
ZyrenAuth is a robust account security and cryptographic authentication lifecycle utility engineered explicitly for Paper and Spigot-compatible server environments. It intercepts player network connections to execute mandatory validation challenges, establishing a strict data barrier that protects player states, inventories, and profile configurations until verification parameters are successfully met.
Key Features
- Reverse Word Captcha Verification — Enforces a randomized reverse-string algorithmic challenge instantly upon connection, preventing automated credential stuffing and bot injection vectors.
- Graphical 2FA Initialization — Features an in-game GUI pipeline (
/za 2fa setup) that generates and projects local 2FA secret key states and QR code URIs directly to authenticator applications. - Isolated Space Teleportation — Seamlessly forces unauthenticated connections onto a locked, safe void coordinate context (
0.5, 0.0, 0.5), completely suppressing network world interactions and movement events until verification succeeds. - Persistent State Persistence — Automatically serializes and caches complete player data matrices—including inventories, vector positions, active status effects, food boundaries, and experience blocks—restoring them seamlessly upon successful lifecycle completion.
- Intelligent Network Profiling — Dual-mode operation handling:
- Online-Mode Pipelines: Seamlessly authenticates valid Mojang verification hashes while managing dynamic username updates.
- Offline-Mode Fallbacks: Automates session persistence for pre-registered users while enforcing strict registration protocols for unrecognized profiles.
- Asynchronous Release Auditing — Connects non-blockingly to Modrinth asset channels on startup to evaluate, verify, and notify console administrators of available optimization payloads.
- Enterprise Storage Ingestion — Supports relational MySQL and MariaDB database storage engines for multi-server synchronization, complete with a structured, encrypted file-based archive fallback.
Quick Start & Deployment
- Deployment: Drop the compiled
ZyrenAuthbinary archive directly into the active serverplugins/directory. - Initialization: Run the server lifecycle to instantiate the primary configuration schema at
plugins/config/zyrenauth/. - Configuration Extraction: Utilize the Online Configuration Generator to easily compile and modify variables within the local
config.jsonpayload.
