This Bitcoin Core wallet patch fixes a bug where the software underestimated the size (and therefore the required transaction fee) of certain externally provided transaction inputs. The fix passes the actual outpoint being spent into the size-estimation function, so the fee calculation can account for extra data that some inputs require. The included test demonstrates that without the fix, the estimated size is one byte too small.

Security candidatekey: cleanse ChainCode on destructionby Thomas · 21a1380c · May 12, 2026 · 4 filesMessage 78 · AdequateLow 49Details

key: cleanse ChainCode on destruction
HMAC primitives cleanse their internal stack buffers, but a caller's ChainCode remains populated in memory after use. Promote ChainCode from `typedef uint256` to a `base_blob<256>` subclass with a memory_cleanse() destructor, so chain codes in CExtKey, CExtPubKey, and local variables are cleansed on scope exit.
Retype MUSIG_CHAINCODE from `constexpr uint256` to `const ChainCode` to match its BIP328 semantic role. Dropping `constexpr` (ChainCode is no longer a literal type) also removes the GCC-14 consteval lambda workaround.
Remove the duplicate typedef in pubkey.h (which includes hash.h transitively). Two fuzz-test call sites in test/fuzz/key.cpp now construct the chain-code argument explicitly rather than relying on the typedef.

AI analysis · Low 49/100
This commit is a defensive hardening change for Bitcoin Core's handling of BIP32 'chain codes'—secret-derived values used when creating child keys from a master key. Previously these values were stored as ordinary 256-bit numbers that could remain in memory after use. The change makes ChainCode a dedicated type that securely wipes its own memory when it goes out of scope, similar to how private keys are already handled. It is a preventive security improvement rather than a fix for an active exploit.

musig: Include pubnonce in session id
Multiple signing sessions over the same message are allowed. Including the pubnonce in the session id allows distinguishing the signing sessions.
This should be safe as a new secret nonce is used for each signing session, and after the nonce is used, it is still deleted from memory in order to avoid reuse.

AI analysis · Low 31/100
This change tweaks how Bitcoin Core's MuSig2 multi-signature code keeps track of active signing sessions. Previously, the session identifier was based only on the public keys and the transaction hash. Now it also includes each participant's public nonce. This matters because the same keys and transaction can legitimately be signed more than once, and without the nonce in the identifier the code could confuse two different signing sessions and risk reusing or misplacing secret nonce data. The commit itself is framed as a safety improvement, not a fix for a known active bug or exploit.

The fix makes the command verify signatures cryptographically, not just check that signature data is present.

crypto: cleanse HMAC stack buffers after use
CHMAC_SHA256 and CHMAC_SHA512 leave two stack buffers populated on return: rkey[] holds K' XOR ipad after the constructor, and temp[] holds the inner-hash output after Finalize().
When the HMAC is keyed with sensitive material (chain code in BIP32Hash() in hash.cpp for BIP32 child key derivation; PRK in HKDF-Expand in hkdf_sha256_32.cpp, used for BIP324 transport keying), rkey is one constant XOR from that key, and temp is a one-way digest covering it.
Cleanse both buffers with memory_cleanse(), matching the convention in chacha20.cpp and chacha20poly1305.cpp. No observable change for callers.

This commit fixes an off-by-one bug in Bitcoin Core's read-only wallet migration tool. The tool checks whether a Berkeley DB (BDB) wallet file is self-contained before migrating it. Due to a half-open loop, the tool was skipping the very last page of the database when verifying that all pages had their log sequence numbers (LSNs) reset. As a result, it could have accepted a wallet whose final page still depended on separate BDB log files, potentially leading to incomplete or inconsistent migration data. The fix changes the loop to include the last page.

cmake: add CTestConfig.cmake
Add a `CTestConfig.cmake` file with the CDash submission URL for Bitcoin Core.
This lets developers use CTest’s built-in dashboard support to upload local configure, build, and test results to CDash. With this a developer can use their own CTest dashboard script or manual `ctest` workflow and upload results to a collection point.
This is useful for sharing reproducible build/test results from local machines, CI experiments, and platform-specific debugging. CDash keeps the configure output, build warnings/errors, and test results grouped under a single dashboard submission, making it easier to inspect failures and compare behavior across environments.
The file only defines the CDash upload location. It does not change the default build or test behavior.
This commit adds a one-line configuration file telling CMake/CTest where to upload test results (a CDash dashboard URL). It does not change how Bitcoin Core is built or tested by default, and it does not introduce any security-relevant code change.
