Lower-priorityStore current_point in HolderCommitmentPointby Jeffrey Czyz · a7ba4dd3 · Aug 18, 2025 · 1 fileMessage 58 · ThinLow 41Details

Store current_point in HolderCommitmentPoint
When splicing a channel, sending and receiving the initial commitment_signed message should use the current commitment point rather then the next one. Store this in HolderCommitmentPoint whenever it is advanced.
This commit fixes a state-tracking bug in the experimental splicing feature of a Lightning Network implementation. Previously, during a splice, the code used the wrong commitment point (the 'next' one instead of the 'current' one) when sending or receiving the first commitment_signed message. The fix stores the current commitment point explicitly and adds guards that prevent splicing until the commitment point has been advanced at least once. It also persists the new field across restarts. The change is defensive and corrects protocol behavior, but it is not a clear-cut critical security patch on its own.
HolderCommitmentPoint::point represents the next point we expect to receive. Rename it to next_point to reflect that and similarly rename transaction_number. The next commit will add the current point, which is needed in splicing.
This commit is a straightforward internal rename of variables and struct fields in the Lightning Dev Kit's channel management code. It changes names like `point` to `next_point` and `transaction_number` to `next_transaction_number` to make the code clearer for an upcoming feature (splicing). No behavior changes, bug fixes, or security fixes are present.
HolderCommitmentPoint::next_point represents the point to use after advancing the point. However, HolderCommitmentPoint::point actually represents the next point we'd expect to receive. This will be renamed in the next commit, so to avoid clashing the existing next_point field needs to be renamed.
This commit is a simple internal rename of a struct field and its related variables from `next_point` to `pending_next_point`, plus updated comments and log messages. It does not change program behavior, fix a bug, or alter any security-relevant logic. It is preparation for a future rename of another field.

This commit adds a safety check in LDK that compares a backup of channel data received from a peer against the local state. If the peer's backup shows a newer state than what the local node has, the code now deliberately crashes with a panic and tells the user to use a recovery tool to force-close the channel and reclaim funds. The goal is to detect when the local node has lost critical channel data and prevent it from accidentally losing money.

This commit adds an experimental feature (gated behind a special compile-time flag) that serializes sensitive Lightning channel backup data and sends it to peers for storage. The code itself is a work-in-progress: the authors explicitly note they are unsure which sensitive fields should be omitted from the backup, and the feature is disabled by default. There is no direct vulnerability in the diff, but it introduces a new attack surface where a bug or misconfiguration could leak channel secrets to counterparty peers.

This commit fixes a validation bug in how Lightning offers (BOLT12) are checked. Previously, an offer that included an issuer ID but had an empty list of payment paths was incorrectly rejected. The fix allows empty paths when an issuer ID is present, because the issuer ID itself can be used for signing. The bug was a logic error, not a clear-cut security vulnerability, but it could cause valid offers to be rejected or force users to add unnecessary paths, which may have privacy or usability implications.

Also reset notification cooldown on peer disconnection
If we happened to send a notification while the client is connected to us, we would previously only reset the cooldown once the client connects again.
While theoretically it would be preferable to never set the `last_notification_sent` field to begin with if the client is connected to us, allowing the service handler to query the peer connection state would be unnecessarily complex. Here, we therefore simply opt to also reset the `last_notification_sent` state once the peer disconnects from us.

This patch fixes a logic bug in how webhook notifications are paced. Previously, if a notification was sent while a client was connected, the system would wait for the client to reconnect before resetting the cooldown timer. If the client disconnected right after the notification, the cooldown could block future notifications from being sent promptly. The fix now resets the cooldown when the peer disconnects, so notifications can resume on schedule.

Lower-priorityPrefactor: Simplify `last_notification_sent` trackingby Elias Rohrer · bf91c4ed · Aug 18, 2025 · 2 filesMessage 63 · AdequateInformational 20Details
While bLIP-55 describes that the service should wait at least some cooldown between sending notifications per individual `method`, there is nothing that keeps us from simplifying our approach to apply the cooldown to *any* notifications sent, especially since we just reduced the cooldown period to 1 minute elsewhere. Here, we therefore simplify the `last_notification_sent` field to just be a `Option<LSPSDateTime>`.
This commit is a code cleanup (prefactor) that changes how a webhook notification cooldown is tracked. Previously, the system remembered the last time each type of notification was sent separately. Now it only remembers the last time any notification was sent. This means a user could hit the cooldown for one kind of alert and then not receive a different kind of alert for up to a minute, even though the old behavior would have allowed it. The change is intentional and documented in the commit message, and the tests were updated to match. It is not a hidden vulnerability, but it does slightly broaden when notifications can be suppressed.
Detect commitment transaction confirmation in ChannelMonitor instead
Previously, the `ChannelManager` would assume a `Channel` was closed the moment it saw a spend for its funding input. With splicing, this will no longer be the case. Since the `ChannelMonitor` is already responsible for reliably tracking each onchain transaction relevant to a channel, we now produce a `MonitorEvent::CommitmentTxConfirmed` event to inform the `ChannelManager` the channel can be considered closed and removed.
As a result of this change, many tests failed now that we rely on handling the `MonitorEvent::CommitmentTxConfirmed` first before seeing the `ChannelMonitorUpdateStep::ChannelForceClosed` go out.

This commit moves the responsibility for detecting when a channel-closing transaction has been confirmed from the ChannelManager to the ChannelMonitor.

Commit message · Jeffrey Czyz
Use struct for HolderCommitmentPoint
The only difference between the two variants is the next point, which can be stored using an Option for simplicity. The naming of the Available variant is also confusing as it refers to the next commitment point. But HolderCommitmentPoint is typically used to represent the next point, which is actually stored in the current field. Drop the "current" nomenclature to avoid confusion.
This commit is a straightforward internal code cleanup in the Lightning Dev Kit's channel state management. It replaces an enum (a type with two distinct variants) with a struct (a simple container of fields) for tracking the holder's per-commitment point. The behavior is intended to be equivalent; the change only simplifies naming and removes redundant pattern matching. There is no indication of a security fix or vulnerability being addressed.

Stop counting for RNG output in `full_stack_target`
The `full_stack` fuzzer ensures that RNG output is unique by keeping a counter of the number of `get_secure_random_bytes` calls and using it to determine the "random" value to return.
However, because LDK regularly changes when it requests RNG output this causes the fuzz input required to reach a codepath to change regularly, making any existing fuzz corpus stale.
Instead, here, we allow the fuzz input to set a new RNG output value, but otherwise always return the same output. This allows the fuzzer to still reach RNG-output-specifc paths, but fuzzing seeds aren't invalidated when LDK changes.

Commit message · Matt Corallo
Stop reading fee estimates directly in `full_stack_target`
The `full_stack` fuzzer tries to just expose much of the entire library to the fuzzer, and as such when a request comes in from LDK to estimate the current fee it tries to read two bytes of fuzzing input and returns that as the fee to LDK.
However, because LDK regularly changes when it requests a fee estimate from the user this causes the fuzz input required to reach a codepath to change regularly, making any existing fuzz corpus stale.
Instead, here, we allow the fuzz input to load a fee estimate result into a buffer, and if its empty simply return 253. This allows the fuzzer to still reach fee-estimate-triggered overflows, but only invalidates fuzzing seeds that relied on fee estimate inputs rather than all seeds whenever LDK changes fee estimate calls.
