wallet: check BDB last page LSN
The BDB metadata field `last_page` stores the last valid page number, not the number of pages. The read-only wallet migration parser currently checks reset LSNs with a half-open loop, so it skips the final page and may accept a database whose last page still depends on BDB log files.

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.

This commit tweaks the Bitcoin Core dependency build system so that an environment variable used for reproducible builds (SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH) is cleared before generating package IDs.

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.

This commit fixes a bug in a Bitcoin Core fuzz test (a randomized testing harness), not in the main Bitcoin software. The test was building a sample P2SH (pay-to-script-hash) output incorrectly by placing an 'OP_EQUAL' instruction at byte 12 instead of byte 22. This only affects the test's internal data setup and has no effect on real transactions, wallets, or network behavior. The second change is a trivial typo fix in a comment.

validation: correct lifetime of precomputed tx data
This makes sure `txsdata` always outlives the Script check queue (since local objects are destructed in reverse order of construction).
This is the root cause for a security vulnerability reported by Cory Fields in 2024 that could be exploited by crafting an invalid block to cause nodes to read freed memory. The vulnerability was covertly fixed in commit `492e1f09943fcb6145c21d470299305a19e17d8b`.

AI analysis · Critical 87/100
This commit fixes a memory safety bug in Bitcoin Core's block validation. When checking a new block, the program creates a queue of script checks that may run on multiple threads in the background. It also precomputes some transaction data used by those checks. Previously, the precomputed data was destroyed before the background check queue finished, so the workers could read memory that had already been freed. An attacker could craft a malicious block to trigger this, potentially causing crashes, memory corruption, or worse. The fix simply moves the precomputed data variable so it is created before the queue and destroyed after it, guaranteeing the data stays alive as long as the checks need it.

ci: unconfine seccomp for i686 no IPC
Docker 29.4.2 blocks `socketcall(2)` in the default seccomp profile: https://docs.docker.com/engine/release-notes/29/#2942 https://github.com/moby/profiles/releases/tag/seccomp%2Fv0.2.2 https://github.com/moby/moby/pull/52501
That affects the `i686, no IPC` job because it runs 32-bit Linux test binaries inside Docker.
Add Docker's documented `--security-opt seccomp=unconfined` workaround to this job's `CI_CONTAINER_CAP` - the hook `ci/test/02_run_container.py` already appends to `docker run`.
This restores socket availability for the 32-bit test binaries throughout the job: https://docs.docker.com/engine/security/seccomp/#run-without-the-default-seccomp-profile

This change loosens a security sandbox only for one 32-bit Linux continuous-integration test job. Docker's newer default profile was blocking an old 32-bit system call used for sockets, causing the CI job to fail. The patch tells Docker not to apply its default seccomp filter to that container so the tests can run. It does not change Bitcoin Core code that end users run, and it does not appear to be a fix for a vulnerability in Bitcoin itself.

This commit changes a single internal lock in Bitcoin Core's networking code from a recursive mutex (one that lets the same thread lock it multiple times safely) to a plain non-recursive mutex. It also adds many compile-time and runtime checks to make sure no code path tries to lock it twice. The change is defensive hardening: it makes the locking rules stricter so that accidental deadlocks or re-entrancy bugs are caught earlier, but it does not by itself fix a known, exploitable vulnerability.
