This commit is a routine code cleanup titled 'fix linter'. It removes blank lines, unused test variables, and outdated linter suppression comments. The only functional change is adding a type-safety check when reading payment updates from a stream, which now returns a clear error instead of potentially panicking if an unexpected type appears. There is no indication this fixes an active security vulnerability.

graph/db: move sanity check out of insertChannel

We do this so that this lookup is only done in the situation it is
actually needed. During a migration, we dont need to special case this
AlreadyExists error since we will terminate the transaction either way.
So there is no need for the extra lookup during the migration.

A timing analysis showed that this query was significantly impacting the
performance of the migration when run with a postgres backend.

This change is a performance optimization for LND's database code. It moves a 'does this channel already exist?' check from inside a helper function to the caller, so the check is skipped during database migrations where it isn't needed. The commit message says this significantly speeds up migrations on PostgreSQL. There is no direct evidence this fixes a security vulnerability.

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.

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.
