Add --linux-compat build option for Ubuntu 20.04 binaries

Build release binaries inside an Ubuntu 20.04 Docker container to produce executables with lower GLIBC requirements, compatible with older Linux distributions. - Add Dockerfile.compat (Ubuntu 20.04 base, full depends rebuild) - Add .dockerignore to exclude host build artifacts from context - Add --linux-compat flag to build.sh with Docker build/extract/package - Strip binaries inside container to avoid root ownership issues

+DragonX Block Validation Test Suite
+
+Submits tampered blocks to a running DragonX node and verifies they are all
+rejected. Each test modifies a single field in a real block fetched from the
+chain tip, then submits via the submitblock RPC.
+
+Tests:
+  1. Bad nBits (diff=1)            - ContextualCheckBlockHeader / CheckProofOfWork
+  2. Bad RandomX solution           - CheckRandomXSolution
+  3. Future timestamp               - CheckBlockHeader time check
+  4. Bad block version (version=0)  - CheckBlockHeader version check
+  5. Bad Merkle root                - CheckBlock Merkle validation
+  6. Bad hashPrevBlock              - ContextualCheckBlockHeader / AcceptBlockHeader
+  7. Inflated coinbase reward       - ConnectBlock subsidy check
+  8. Duplicate transaction          - CheckBlock Merkle malleability (CVE-2012-2459)
+  9. Timestamp too old (MTP)        - ContextualCheckBlockHeader median time check

DanS	0a01ad8bba	Fix nBits validation bypass and restore CheckProofOfWork rejection for HACs Two critical vulnerabilities allowed an attacker to flood the DragonX chain with minimum-difficulty blocks starting at height 2879907: 1. ContextualCheckBlockHeader only validated nBits for HUSH3 mainnet (gated behind `if (ishush3)`), never for HAC/smart chains. An attacker could submit blocks claiming any difficulty and the node accepted them. Add nBits validation for all non-HUSH3 smart chains, gated above daaForkHeight (default 450000) to maintain consensus with early chain history that was mined by a different binary. 2. The rebrand commit (`85c8d7f7d`) commented out the `return false` block in CheckProofOfWork that rejects blocks whose hash does not meet the claimed target. This made PoW validation a no-op — any hash passed. Restore the rejection block and add RANDOMX_VALIDATION height-gated logic so blocks after the activation height are always validated even during initial block loading. Vulnerability #1 was inherited from the upstream hush3 codebase. Vulnerability #2 was introduced by the DragonX rebrand.	2026-03-05 03:09:38 -06:00
DanS	85c8d7f7dd	Rebrand hush3 to DragonX and share RandomX dataset across mining threads Minimal rebrand (see compliant-rebrand branch for full rebrand): - Rename binaries: hushd/hush-cli/hush-tx → dragonxd/dragonx-cli/dragonx-tx - Default to DRAGONX chain params without -ac_* flags (randomx, blocktime=36, private=1) - Update configure.ac: AC_INIT([DragonX],[1.0.0]) - Update client version string and user-agent to /DragonX:1.0.0/ - Add chainparams.cpp with DRAGONX network parameters - Update build.sh, miner.cpp, pow.cpp for DragonX - Add bootstrap-dragonx.sh utility script - Update .gitignore for release directory Share single RandomX dataset across all mining threads: - Add RandomXDatasetManager with readers-writer lock, reducing RAM from ~2GB per thread to ~2GB total plus ~2MB per thread for the VM scratchpad - Add LogProcessMemory() diagnostic helper for Linux and Windows	2026-03-04 18:42:42 -06:00
DanS	d6ba1aed4e	Fix RandomX validation exploit: verify nSolution contains valid RandomX hash - Add CheckRandomXSolution() to validate RandomX PoW in nSolution field - Add ASSETCHAINS_RANDOMX_VALIDATION activation height per chain (DRAGONX: 2838976, TUMIN: 1200, others: height 1) - Add CRandomXInput serializer for deterministic RandomX hash input - Fix CheckProofOfWork() to properly reject invalid PoW (was missing SMART_CHAIN_SYMBOL check, allowing bypass) - Call CheckRandomXSolution() in hush_checkPOW and CheckBlockHeader Without this fix, attackers could submit blocks with invalid RandomX hashes that passed validation, as CheckProofOfWork returned early during block loading and the nSolution field was never verified.	2026-03-03 17:28:49 -06:00
