Dev-branch audit (docs/_archive/security-audit-dev-2026-07-22.md) re-found the
master issues (absent on dev) plus new ones in dev-only code. Applied here;
full-node build + test suite green; the subtle fixes were adversarially re-verified.
Ported from the master remediation (adapted to dev's code):
- bootstrap: reject zip-slip / path-traversal archive members (isSafeArchivePath)
before writing (S2-1). (dev already fail-closes on a missing checksum.)
- xmrig updater: fail closed when a signature is required but no key is pinned (F1-1).
- http_download.httpGetString: 16 MiB hard cap + MAXFILESIZE on the shared
metadata/price fetch (F1-2 / caps the updater + exchange paths at one site).
- rpc_client: explicit SSL_VERIFYPEER/VERIFYHOST (F4-1) and a 256 MiB response
cap in WriteCallback (F4-3).
- lite_connection_service: reject remote http:// lite servers, loopback only (L1-1).
Loopback is matched by a strict dotted-decimal 127.0.0.0/8 check (not a
startsWith("127.") prefix, which would wrongly accept 127.0.0.1.evil.com), with
userinfo/fragment stripping.
- lite controller: propagate encrypt/decrypt save() failure instead of reporting
success (F7-1).
- xmrig_manager: chmod(0600) the pool config before writing secrets (F5-2).
- app: clear the copied secret from the OS clipboard on shutdown (F3b-1).
- export_transactions: neutralize CSV/spreadsheet formula injection (F13-1).
- build pipeline: build-from-source lite backend + remove the self-attested
CMake signature gate (F15-1); pinned+verified appimagetool (F15-3/4);
verified Sapling params in setup.sh (F15-6); build.sh exits 0 on success.
(F14-1 empty-quoted-arg and F8-2 NUL-termination were already fixed on dev.)
Dev-only findings:
- rpc_client.callRaw: scrub the raw buffer + parsed tree (templated scrubJsonSecrets
for ordered_json) so console dumpprivkey/z_exportkey keys don't linger in freed
heap (N1-1).
- seed_wallet_creator: wipe the exported mnemonic on the failure path so a discarded
failed result never carries a live seed (W1-2).
- export_all_keys: write the plaintext key dump 0600 + atomically via
writeFileAtomically (U1-2).
- chat_database: restrict chat_messages.sqlite and its WAL/SHM sidecars to owner-only (C3-1).
Not done (need a decision, documented in the report):
- Chat header metadata (cid/z/p) rides outside the AEAD (C1/C2) — binding it is a
wire-protocol change requiring SilentDragonXLite interop review.
- Bootstrap lacks an offline-rooted signature (S2-2 residual) — needs signing infra.
- Console scrollback retains console-typed key-export output in plaintext (N1-1
residual) — inherent to an echoing console; would need output redaction.

Vendor the two local Rust crates that build the lite backend artifact into
third_party/silentdragonxlite/ (the qtlib C-ABI wrapper + the silentdragonxlitelib
core, with proto/res and all the lite-send fixes), and point
build-lite-backend-artifact.sh's default --backend-dir there, so the lite wallet
builds without the upstream SilentDragonXLite repo.
External build inputs are now only the Rust toolchain + git.dragonx.is + crates.io:
- the 6 librustzcash git deps point at the git.dragonx.is/DragonX/librustzcash
mirror (pinned rev acff1444), not git.hush.is;
- the Sapling params are gitignored (not committed, no Git LFS) - the build fetches
them from the git.dragonx.is/DragonX/zcash-params 'sapling-v1' release and verifies
their SHA-256 before rust-embed bakes them in (ensure_sapling_params).
For fully offline builds, cargo vendor into lib/vendor/ and add a vendored-sources
redirect (vendor/ is gitignored; the script symlinks it into the prepared dir).

Preserve the previously-uncommitted lite wallet implementation and related dev WIP
under version control:
- src/wallet/ lite services: client bridge, bridge runtime, connection, lifecycle,
sync, gateway, result parsers, state mapper, artifact contract/resolver, refresh
services, UI adapters, wallet_backend/capabilities. (Includes two small M1 fixes:
lifecycle walletReady now parses the response; default chain name -> "main".)
- src/chat/ chat protocol; tests/fixtures/ (lite + hushchat); tools/hushchat_fixture_check.cpp;
scripts/build-lite-backend-artifact.sh.
- Pre-existing modified app_network/security/wizard, network_refresh_service, sidebar,
mining_tab, bootstrap dialog, and version headers captured as-is.
