signing or wallet pathsecond-pass: security-sensitive path
AI analysis · Low 34/100

This commit changes how COLDCARD handles multisig wallet names. Previously, re-importing a wallet file or descriptor with a different name would silently rename the existing wallet. Now, renaming must be done through an explicit 'Rename' menu action, and re-importing a duplicate with a different name is rejected. This is a security-hardening UX change that prevents accidental or malicious wallet renaming during import, which could confuse users about which wallet they are signing for.

This commit only changes test code for the COLDCARD firmware. It makes the test suite more stable by letting developers specify a custom Bitcoin daemon path, adding a PSBT2 test flag, fixing a test that checks upload-during-approval behavior, and importing an extra constant for user-interface tests. None of these changes affect the actual firmware that runs on the device, so there is no security risk to users.

45/100 · ThinMessage clarity
✓ Descriptive subject✓ Names a concrete action or component! No meaningful explanatory body
Why it was queued
signing or wallet pathsecond-pass: security-sensitive path
AI analysis · High 71/100

This commit fixes a bug in the COLDCARD firmware signing tools and headers. Previously, the maximum allowed firmware size for Mk4/Q1 devices was set too large: it did not account for a 512 KB filesystem region and a small DFU wrapper block at the end of flash. As a result, a firmware image could be signed and accepted even though part of it would extend beyond the region protected by the device's 'world checksum' integrity check. The patch shrinks the official maximum firmware length so that the entire image stays within the integrity-checked region. The changelog explicitly calls this a bugfix that 'reject[s] firmware images that extend past the world-checksum-covered flash region.'

This update changes the Coldcard wallet cloning process so that the receiving device now displays the restored seed's master fingerprint and asks the user to confirm it before installing. Previously, the clone process skipped this confirmation step. The change helps prevent a user from accidentally accepting a different seed than intended during a clone, which could lead to backing up or using the wrong wallet.

bugfix: simulator crash from desynced LED pipe

The LED pipe is framed as two bytes per message, [mask, state], but the
SE1 "greenlight firmware" path (submethod 5) still wrote a single byte
left over from the old 4+4-bit protocol.

That stray byte shifts the stream by one for good: every later read(2)
straddles a message boundary and decodes garbage LED state, and the
trailing lone byte makes simulator.py's `mask, lset = c` die with
ValueError: not enough values to unpack (expected 2, got 1).

Write [mask, state] like every other caller does, and add a test that
holds all led_pipe writers to the two-byte framing.

This commit fixes a simulator-only bug in the COLDCARD firmware's development/test tooling. A special code path that simulates the secure element's 'greenlight' LED signal was writing one byte to an internal pipe instead of the expected two bytes. That single-byte write shifted all later messages out of alignment, eventually causing the simulator to crash with a Python unpacking error. The fix changes that one write to two bytes and adds a regression test to catch similar mistakes. It does not affect real COLDCARD hardware or user funds.

This commit adds a security advisory to the COLDCARD firmware README. Coinkite states that firmware releases from 2021 through July 2026 contained a bug that produced weak randomness (poor entropy) when generating secrets such as wallet seed phrases. Because weak randomness can make private keys guessable by attackers, any Bitcoin or other cryptocurrency funds protected by seeds created on affected COLDCARD devices during that period may be at risk of theft. The advisory recommends regenerating seeds and moving funds immediately, and lists specific firmware versions where the issue is fixed. The commit itself only changes documentation; it does not contain the actual code fix.

AI analysis · Moderate 64/100

This update changes the COLDCARD hardware wallet so that it refuses to sign Bitcoin transactions using the SIGHASH_SINGLE signature mode unless the user has explicitly enabled a 'Warn' setting. SIGHASH_SINGLE lets a signer lock in only one output while leaving other outputs changeable later. That could allow someone to alter where remaining funds go after the COLDCARD has already signed. The change adds SIGHASH_SINGLE to the existing safety check that already blocked SIGHASH_NONE, and it includes a test to confirm the block works.

This commit updates Coldcard's release notes to announce that a previously disclosed limited-entropy bug in seed generation now also affects Mk3 hardware, and that a new Mk3 firmware version 4.2.0 has been released as a hotfix. The earlier notes told Mk3 users to stop generating seeds and move funds; the revised notes say Mk3 users can safely generate seeds again after installing 4.2.0. Seeds created before this fix may have only about 40 bits of randomness, making them far weaker than intended and potentially guessable by attackers.
