@ -185,10 +185,35 @@ In this configuration:
- `front_door` stream is used by Frigate for viewing, recording, and detection. The `#backchannel=0` parameter prevents go2rtc from establishing the audio output backchannel, so it won't block two-way talk access.
- `front_door_twoway` stream is used for two-way talk functionality. This stream can be used by Frigate's WebRTC viewer when two-way talk is enabled, or by other applications (like Home Assistant Advanced Camera Card) that need access to the camera's audio output channel.
## Security: Restricted Stream Sources
For security reasons, the `echo:`, `expr:`, and `exec:` stream sources are disabled by default in go2rtc. These sources allow arbitrary command execution and can pose security risks if misconfigured.
If you attempt to use these sources in your configuration, the streams will be removed and an error message will be printed in the logs.
To enable these sources, you must set the environment variable `GO2RTC_ALLOW_ARBITRARY_EXEC=true`. This can be done in your Docker Compose file or container environment:
```yaml
environment:
- GO2RTC_ALLOW_ARBITRARY_EXEC=true
```
:::warning
Enabling arbitrary exec sources allows execution of arbitrary commands through go2rtc stream configurations. Only enable this if you understand the security implications and trust all sources of your configuration.

## Advanced Restream Configurations
The [exec](https://github.com/AlexxIT/go2rtc/tree/v1.9.10#source-exec) source in go2rtc can be used for custom ffmpeg commands. An example is below:
:::warning
The `exec:`, `echo:`, and `expr:` sources are disabled by default for security. You must set `GO2RTC_ALLOW_ARBITRARY_EXEC=true` to use them. See [Security: Restricted Stream Sources](#security-restricted-stream-sources) for more information.

NOTE: The output will need to be passed with two curly braces `{{output}}`
