multi: introduce new paymentsDB package

We introduce a new package paymentsDB and start by moving the
payment specifc errors from the channeldb package to the
paymentsDB package. We also fix linter issues which showed up
due to changing this code part.

This commit is a straightforward code reorganization: it creates a new paymentsDB package and moves payment-related error definitions from the channeldb package into it. All existing error values are preserved unchanged, and callers are updated to import them from the new location. There is no functional change to how payments are processed or validated.

channeldb: add context to query method

We add a context for the query method because the query method
is part of the paymentDB interface and for the SQL case
we will need the context for this method because the native
SQL drivers demand one. So we add it for the kv implementation
here as well so we can then make use of the new interface type.

This commit is a straightforward internal code cleanup. It adds a context parameter to a database query method so the same interface can be used by both the existing key-value store and a future SQL implementation. The new context is not used for any security purpose in this change, and no behavior of the application changes.

Commit message · Jared Tobin

server: don't mention aux stuff in error [skip ci]

This error is returned when one attempts to use taproot overlay channels
without the necessary auxiliary funding controller being supplied. In
practice, when running lnd via litd, the latter will always supply
'tapd' as the aux funding controller, but a standalone lnd has no
knowledge of that.

The previous message sort of reads like the lnd user has forgotten to
set some available option or flag, but nothing or the sort actually
exists. The update makes it clearer that the feature isn't available in
the standalone build.

lnwallet: detect and handle noop HTLCs

We update the lightning channel state machine in some key areas. If the
noop TLV is set in the update_add_htlc custom records then we change the
entry type to noop. When settling the HTLC if the type is noop we credit
the satoshi amount back to the sender.

AI analysis · Low 43/100

This commit adds a new 'no-op HTLC' feature to LND's lightning channel state machine. A no-op HTLC is a special payment-like message that, when settled, may credit the amount back to the sender rather than transferring it to the receiver. It is only intended for channels using a custom tapscript root and is triggered by external software via custom TLV records. The change touches balance calculations, settlement logic, and how HTLCs are restored from disk. Because it alters fundamental accounting rules, any bug in the logic could affect funds, but the commit itself is a feature addition with guardrails (reserve checks, tapscript-root gating) rather than a clear-cut fix for a known vulnerability.

This commit only adds a new test case to an existing unit test. It does not change any production code. The new test verifies that when a special 'noop' (no-operation) HTLC is retransmitted after a restart, it matches the original HTLC exactly, so that both channel partners agree on the commitment signature and avoid accidentally force-closing the channel. Because no real code behavior is changed, this commit by itself does not introduce or fix a live security vulnerability.

This commit adds a new internal bookkeeping label called NoOpAdd for a special kind of Lightning payment. The label marks HTLCs whose funds can return to the sender when settled, instead of always going to the receiver. The change only defines the label and makes existing log/commitment logic treat it like a normal Add. There is no actual implementation of the new behavior here, and the commit message says the feature must be explicitly enabled by external software. On its own, this patch does not appear to introduce a vulnerability, but it is a partial change that future code will build on.

routing: make sure attempts are always resolved after a timeout

We check the context of the payment lifecycle at the beginning of

This change moves a timeout/context check to the very start of each loop iteration in LND's payment lifecycle logic. The goal is to ensure that when a payment attempt times out or the context is cancelled, any remaining in-flight HTLC attempts are resolved and the payment state is updated before the loop exits. The commit message frames this as a correctness fix for resolving attempts after a timeout, but does not describe it as a security vulnerability.

This commit updates the Go programming language version used to build LND from 1.23.10 to 1.23.12 across build files, Docker images, and documentation. Go patch releases typically include bug fixes and security fixes in the Go runtime and standard library. The commit itself does not change any LND application code, but it may pull in upstream security fixes from the Go toolchain. Without explicit vendor disclosure or a CVE reference in the commit, we cannot confirm which specific vulnerabilities are being addressed.

graph/db: use batch loading for PruneGraph

AI analysis · Informational 11/100

This commit refactors how LND removes old, closed channels from its network graph database. Instead of building and deleting each channel one at a time inside a loop, it first collects all matching channels, then builds their details in a batch, and finally deletes them together. There is no visible security fix here; it appears to be a performance and code-cleanup change.

graph/db: batch fetching for FetchChanInfos

45/100 · ThinMessage clarity
✓ Descriptive subject✓ Names a concrete action or component! No meaningful explanatory body
AI analysis · Informational 17/100

This commit refactors how LND fetches multiple channel records from its database. Instead of building each result one-by-one inside a loop, it first collects all raw rows and then builds them in a single batch. The change appears to be a performance optimization with no obvious security impact. There is no mention of fixing a vulnerability, and the diff does not introduce new input handling or access controls.

graph/db: add missing counter increment

AI analysis · Low 44/100

This commit fixes a missing counter increment in a database migration that copies Lightning Network channel data from an old key-value store to a new SQL database. The `chunk` variable was supposed to count how many channels had been processed since the last progress report, but it never increased. As a result, progress logging and possibly batching logic would behave incorrectly, potentially making the migration appear stuck or run inefficiently. There is no direct evidence in the commit that this caused a security vulnerability.

This commit is a performance optimization for LND's channel graph database queries. It replaces a one-by-one loading approach with batch loading when retrieving Lightning channel updates within a time window. The change makes the operation roughly 9-30 times faster depending on the database backend, but it does not appear to fix a security vulnerability or change any security-critical behavior.

graph/db: refactor makeZombiePubkeys

Let the helper method only take the params it needs so that we dont need
to construct an entire models.ChannelEdgeInfo object to pass to it. This
will be useful later on.

This commit is a straightforward code cleanup that changes a helper function to accept individual values instead of a whole object. It does not appear to fix or introduce any security issue. However, the diff contains one suspicious typo-like change in the default case where the function now returns `node1` instead of `node2`, which looks like a potential bug but is not a security vulnerability on its own.

This commit is a small internal code cleanup in LND's graph database code. It changes a helper function so it receives a copy of a data record instead of a pointer to that record. There is no user-facing change, no bug fix, and no security relevance visible in the diff or commit message.
