Security candidateClean up fuzz crate: use panic=abort, add stdin_fuzz support, remove dylibby Joost Jager · 69e2d8cf · Feb 23, 2026 · 75 filesMessage 95 · StrongInformational 15Details
Commit message · Joost Jager
Clean up fuzz crate: use panic=abort, add stdin_fuzz support, remove dylib
This commit makes three related changes to the fuzz infrastructure:
1. Set panic=abort on both dev and release profiles, and remove the dylib crate type (keeping rlib and staticlib). The dylib crate type was added in e28fd78e6 (2019) for a C-callable harness that was never implemented. Removing dylib is what enables panic=abort, since Rust forces panic=unwind on dylib crates. staticlib is retained as it is compatible with panic=abort.
2. Add stdin_fuzz support: a new Stdout logger, updated target template so that stdin_fuzz calls _test() with Stdout logging, and updated README with usage instructions. This allows reproducing crashes via piped input, useful for git bisect and AI-assisted debugging.
3. Update all fuzzer frontends (AFL, honggfuzz, libfuzzer, stdin_fuzz) to call the _test() functions directly instead of going through the _run() C wrappers.

Security candidateInclude MPP payment amount in `RecipientOnionFields`by Matt Corallo · abf258a6 · Feb 20, 2026 · 29 filesMessage 95 · StrongLow 36Details
Commit message · Matt Corallo
Include MPP payment amount in `RecipientOnionFields`
In some uses of LDK we need the ability to send HTLCs for only a portion of some larger MPP payment. This allows payers to make single payments which spend funds from multiple wallets, which may be important for ecash wallets holding funds in multiple mints or graduated wallets which hold funds across a trusted wallet and a self-custodial wallet.
In order to allow for this, we need to separate the concept of the payment amount from the onion MPP amount. Here we start this process by adding a `total_mpp_amount_msat` field to `RecipientOnionFields` (which is the appropriate place for a field describing something in the recipient onion).
We currently always assert that it is equal to the existing fields, but will relax this in the coming commit(s).
We also start including a payment preimage on probe attempts, which appears to have been the intent of the code, but which did not work correctly.
The bulk of the test updates were done by Claude.

This commit is a preparatory refactor in LDK's payment-sending code. It adds a new `total_mpp_amount_msat` field to `RecipientOnionFields` so that, in future commits, a payer can send an HTLC that is only one part of a larger multi-part payment. For now the new field is always required and is asserted to match the existing payment amount, so behavior is unchanged. The commit also fixes a small related bug where probe payments were not including a payment preimage as intended. There is no immediate security vulnerability here; it is a feature-building change with a minor bug fix.

When `OutboundPayments` calls the provided `Router` to fetch a `Route` it passes a `RouteParameters` with a specific max-fee. Here we validate that the `Route` returned sticks to the limits provided, and also that it meets the MPP rules of not having any single MPP part which can be removed while still meeting the desired payment amount.

AI analysis · Low 47/100
This commit adds safety checks inside the Lightning payment code to make sure the route finder (the 'Router') actually follows the rules it was given. Before sending a payment, the code now verifies that the chosen route does not exceed the user-set maximum fee, does not contain useless empty paths, and does not include unnecessary multi-path payment (MPP) parts. If the router misbehaves, the payment is abandoned instead of being sent. It is a defensive hardening change rather than a fix for a known active attack.

This commit is a straightforward code cleanup in the project's test suite. It replaces a Rust macro called `check_closed_broadcast!` with direct calls to an equivalent function. Macros are a shorthand in Rust; replacing them with normal function calls makes the test code easier to read and maintain but does not change what the tests actually do.

This commit changes how a Lightning payment library runs its internal fuzz tests. It makes the test harness call the normal periodic timer function instead of a special stripped-down version, so incomplete multi-part payments time out properly during testing. The production code is mostly unchanged, but a few internal test-only helpers are now available under a new test-utilities feature flag. There is no direct evidence this fixes a real-world security bug; it appears to be a test-harness cleanup that makes fuzzing more realistic.

Use CoinSelection::change_output when splicing
Now that CoinSelection is used to fund a splice funding transaction, use that for determining of a change output should be used. Previously, the initiator could either provide a change script upfront or let LDK generate one using SignerProvider::get_destination_script.
Since older versions may have serialized a SpliceInstruction without a change script while waiting on quiescence, LDK must still generate a change output in this case.

This commit changes how Lightning Dev Kit handles 'change' money during Bitcoin channel splicing. Previously, the user could provide a change address or LDK would generate one itself. Now, the wallet's coin-selection logic decides whether a change output is needed and what it looks like. The commit keeps a fallback for older stored data that may not include a change script. It is a code-quality and consistency improvement rather than a clear security fix, though it reduces the chance of fee or change-output mistakes during splicing.

This commit is a new regression test, not a fix. It verifies that a forwarding Lightning node can still claim two parts of a multi-path payment backwards after restarting, even if the node's temporary 'holding cell' state was lost during the crash. The test infrastructure was updated so the test can observe messages released from the holding cell during protocol exchanges. There is no production code change here.
Previously, if a forwarding node reloaded mid-HTLC-forward with a preimage in the outbound edge monitor and the outbound edge channel still open, and subsequently reclaimed the inbound HTLC backwards, the PaymentForwarded event would be missing the next_user_channel_id field.

Accept blinded paths built by a phantom node participant
In the next commit we'll add support for building a BOLT 12 offer which can be paid to any one of a number of participant nodes. Here we add support for validating blinded paths as coming from one of the participating nodes by deriving a new key as a part of the `ExpandedKey`.
We keep this separate from the existing `ReceiveAuthKey` which is node-specific to ensure that we only allow this key to be used for blinded payment paths and contexts in `invoice_request` messages. This ensures that normal onion messages are still tied to specific nodes.
Note that we will not yet use the blinded payment path phantom support which requires additional future work. However, allowing them to be authenticated in a phantom configuration should allow for compatibility across versions once the building logic lands.

Add a read closure to the `legacy` TLV variant
Update the `legacy` TLV read/write variant signature from `(legacy, $fieldty, $write)` to `(legacy, $fieldty, $read, $write)`, adding a read closure parameter matching the `custom` variant's signature.
The read closure is applied in `_check_missing_tlv!` after all TLV fields are read but before `static_value` fields consume legacy values. This preserves backwards compatibility with `static_value` and `default_value` expressions that reference legacy field variables as `Option<$fieldty>` during TLV reading.
The read closure signature differs from `custom`: `FnOnce(Option<&$fieldty>) -> Result<(), DecodeError>`. All existing usage sites return `Ok(())` as their read closure (no-op).

This commit is a small, internal refactoring of a Rust serialization macro used in the Lightning Dev Kit. It adds an optional read-time callback to the 'legacy' type-length-value (TLV) field variant so future code can validate or reject decoded legacy values. All existing usage sites pass a no-op callback that always succeeds, so the change does not alter current behavior. It is a defensive/extensibility improvement, not a fix for an active security bug.

This commit is a pure test-code refactoring. It renames the default test channel configuration because anchor channels became the production default, and updates many tests to explicitly use a new 'legacy' configuration where they previously relied on the old default. There is no change to production code, no bug fix, and no security-relevant behavior change.
Removes the `manually_accept_inbound_channels` config option. In upcoming commit we will default to anchor channels which requires users checking if they have enough onchain funds to cover fees in case of a force close. Hence, we move to always require users to manually accept inbound channels.
This commit removes the automatic acceptance of incoming Lightning channels in the LDK library. Previously, users could set a flag to automatically accept inbound channel requests. Now, every inbound channel request must be explicitly approved by the user through an OpenChannelRequest event. This is a deliberate design change to ensure users verify they have enough on-chain funds to cover fees, especially with upcoming anchor channel defaults. It is not a fix for an active vulnerability, but it prevents accidental or unsafe channel acceptance.
Support async signing of interactive-tx initial commitment signatures
This commit allows for an async signer to immediately return upon a call to `EcdsaChannelSigner::sign_counterparty_commitment` for the initial commitment signatures of an interactively funded transaction, such that they can call back in via `ChannelManager::signer_unblocked` once the signatures are ready. This is done for both splices and dual-funded channels, though note that the latter still require more work to be integrated. Since `tx_signatures` must be sent only after exchanging `commitment_signed`, we make sure to hold them back if they're ready to be sent until our `commitment_signed` is also ready.

This commit adds support for asynchronous (delayed) signing when opening or splicing Lightning channels that use the newer interactive-funding protocol. Previously, if a hardware or remote signer was not ready to produce the initial commitment signature, the code either did not support the delay or could accidentally send transaction signatures before the commitment signature was ready. The change holds back the transaction-signature message until the commitment signature is available, and adds a regression test for splicing. It is a protocol-correctness and robustness improvement rather than a fix for an active exploit.
