This change blocks a specific command—signing unsigned transaction files—from being used when a Monero wallet's private keys live on a hardware device (Ledger/Trezor). Before the patch, the software apparently allowed users to attempt this operation, which hardware wallets do not actually support. The patch now returns a clear error instead of proceeding. The risk is that a user or third-party tool could be misled into thinking a transaction was properly signed when it was not, potentially causing loss of funds or a failed/confused workflow. No exploit code is shown in the commit.

This Monero patch changes how block templates are built for restricted RPC users. Before, a remote user calling the get_block_template RPC on a restricted node could receive a block template containing sensitive transactions—specifically transactions that were relayed privately (such as Dandelion++ stem transactions). The patch adds a flag so restricted RPC callers get a template that only includes publicly broadcast transactions, while local/unrestricted callers still get the full template. This reduces information leakage about pending private transactions to untrusted RPC clients.

simplewallet: use the swept account for index=all in sweep_main
sweep_main() takes the account to sweep as a parameter, but the index=all expansion still counts subaddresses on m_current_subaddress_account. sweep_all and sweep_below pass the current account, so sweep_account is the one command that ends up with the wrong set.
When the current account has fewer subaddresses than the account being swept, the set is too small and outputs in the higher minor indices never make it into the sweep. If none of the target's unlocked outputs land in that range, create_transactions_all throws "No unlocked balance in the specified subaddress(es)" for an account that plainly has a balance.
27d551d12f8d added the account parameter and pointed create_transactions_all at it, but left this loop on the old field. The RPC path already does it the right way, with get_num_subaddresses(req.account_index).

This is a one-line bug fix in Monero's command-line wallet. The 'sweep_account' command, when asked to sweep all subaddresses of a different account than the one currently selected, accidentally looked at the wrong account's list of subaddresses. This could cause some funds to be left behind or the command to wrongly report that the target account had no spendable balance. It does not let an attacker steal funds; it is a user-facing functional bug that could surprise a wallet user.
cryptonote_basic: keep additional derivations aligned in key image helper
generate_key_image_helper only appended to additional_recv_derivations when generate_key_derivation succeeded. A tx pubkey that is not a valid point makes that call fail, so every later derivation shifted down one slot.
is_out_to_acc_precomp indexes that vector by the output index, so once the list is short the lookup either falls off the bounds check or reads the derivation belonging to a different output. Either way the helper reports that the output does not belong to the address, and the wallet cannot build a key image for an output it owns. Anyone who can put a transaction in front of the wallet chooses those pubkeys.
The main tx pubkey a few lines up already handles a failed derivation by keeping its slot and padding with identity, and wallet2 does the same in the three places it builds this list (wallet2.cpp:2393, :7887, :13397). Do it here too.

This patch fixes a bug in how Monero wallets build key images for transaction outputs they own. When a transaction contained an invalid extra public key, the wallet would misalign its internal list of cryptographic derivations. This caused the wallet to either look at the wrong entry or fail to recognize its own output, preventing it from creating a key image. Because anyone can craft a transaction with such an invalid key, this could be used to stop a wallet from spending its own funds. The fix pads the failed derivation with a placeholder so the list stays aligned with output indexes.

This change alters how Monero processes batches of incoming blocks. Previously, if any block in a batch was already known, the code would skip fully parsing the remaining blocks. Now it parses all blocks regardless. This could have hidden a bug where incomplete parsing led to inconsistent state, but the patch itself is small and the exact security impact is not stated by the vendor.

This commit fixes a bug in how Monero nodes request blocks from peers during blockchain synchronization. Before the fix, a node could accidentally reserve the same range of blocks twice from different peers, wasting bandwidth and potentially causing synchronization confusion.

This Monero commit changes how a node calculates the size of upcoming block batches during sync. Previously, when a peer sent 'pruned' blocks (a compressed form), the node did not fully count those blocks toward its sync-size budget and only checked that their reported weight was non-zero. The patch makes the node use the pruned blocks' reported weights in its size calculations and verifies those weights against data already stored in its own chain. The main effect is to prevent a malicious or buggy peer from making the node request far more data than expected, which could slow or disrupt syncing. It is a hardening/DoS-mitigation change rather than a direct coin-theft bug.

This Monero commit rewrites how the peer-to-peer block download queue is limited. Instead of capping the number of 'spans' (batches) of blocks, it now caps the total number of queued blocks based on the measured download speed and a user-configurable target time. The change also fixes a couple of small arithmetic edge cases, such as avoiding division by zero when measuring microseconds and guarding against invalid or infinite block rates. The commit message and diff do not describe any security bug; it reads as a performance and robustness improvement to sync behavior.

Dead when their last user went: - core::get_blocks taking vector<pair<blobdata, block>>, both overloads: last caller removed in 9faef1f83; ed2c81ed9 later converted the already-dead signatures from std::list to std::vector. The vector<block> overload is still used by core_tests and is kept - blocks_container: 9e82b694d removed the in-memory blockchain that used it - tx_by_fee_and_receive_time_entry: 445319d3f replaced the sorted container it keyed with a boost::bimap - m_store_blockchain_interval: its do_call went with the original blockchain_storage format in 9e82b694d - m_fork_moaner: its do_call went with the "We are most likely forked" message in f0371210e
Also drops two break statements after a return in ver_mixed_rct_semantics and the doc comments belonging to the removed declarations.
This commit is a routine cleanup that removes unused functions, type aliases, and unreachable code from Monero's core blockchain and transaction-pool modules. The removed code had no callers, so the change cannot be used to attack the network or users. It is purely a maintenance refactor.

This patch changes how Monero's peer-to-peer networking layer handles bad or rejected messages. Previously, when a message handler decided to drop a peer, it often returned a generic success-like code (1) or a 'handler not defined' error. The patch makes these handlers return a specific connection error code, and makes the lower-level protocol stop processing further buffered messages from that peer when it sees a fatal error. This prevents a misbehaving or malicious peer from forcing the node to keep handling queued messages after the node has already decided to disconnect. The change also ensures notifications (one-way messages) return OK instead of a handler-not-defined error when a command is filtered, avoiding spurious errors.

This commit fixes a simple arithmetic bug in how long a transaction has been waiting in the memory pool ("time in pool") was calculated. The old code subtracted the current time from the receive time in the wrong order, which could produce a very large, nonsensical age value instead of a small positive number. The fix ensures the age is always the current time minus the receive time, or zero if the clock somehow runs backward. This is a correctness fix for statistics/ranking of pending transactions, not a direct funds-theft or code-execution vulnerability.

This commit adds an overflow check when the Monero wallet calculates transaction fees from a transaction's weight. Before the patch, multiplying a large 'weight' value by a non-zero 'base_fee' could silently wrap around to a tiny number, potentially causing the wallet to propose an incorrect (possibly far too low) fee. The fix now throws an internal wallet error instead of silently producing a wrong result.

This commit changes how Monero's Trezor hardware wallet integration handles one specific error. Previously, if a user cancelled the view-key export on their Trezor device, the code fell through to a generic 'Get secret keys exception' message and returned false. Now it immediately throws a clearer error: 'Key export rejected on device.' This is a user-experience and diagnostic improvement, not a fix for an exploitable security flaw.

This commit changes how Monero hashes certain internal data types. Previously, some types were hashed using a simple identity function that directly used raw bytes as the hash value, which can cause many items to land in the same hash-table bucket and potentially leak information through timing or collision patterns. The patch replaces that with SipHash-2-4, a keyed, cryptographically designed hash function, using a secret random key generated at startup. This is a defensive hardening change; the commit message frames it only as a performance/distribution optimization, not as a security fix.

This commit removes compiler directives that forced certain cryptographic data structures to be packed tightly without padding, and replaces some direct multi-byte memory reads with safer memcpy operations. On some processors, reading a multi-byte value from a memory address that is not aligned to that value's size can cause a crash or reduced performance. The change makes the code safer and more portable across different CPU architectures, but it does not appear to fix an exploitable remote vulnerability in the Monero network itself.

This Monero wallet patch changes how the wallet decides whether an encrypted payment ID is real or a dummy placeholder. Previously, the wallet relied on destination address data (cd.dests), which could be manipulated by a malicious signer or loaded transaction to make a real payment ID look fake, or a fake one look real. The patch now derives that status directly from the transaction's extra field, where the payment ID is actually stored, and adds a consistency check. This is a security fix for a potential information leak or user deception during multi-step transaction signing.
