This commit swaps out a home-grown ChaCha20-Poly1305 implementation for a widely reviewed external crate from the rust-bitcoin project. It is a routine refactoring/cryptographic-hardening change, not an obvious security fix. The diff shows careful translation of the old code to the new API, including fuzzing support and nonce handling. There is no direct evidence of a vulnerability being patched, but any crypto migration carries risk of subtle behavioral differences.

Security candidateValidate Esplora merkle proof against the block header's merkle rootby Elias Rohrer · b64efcda · May 5, 2026 · 1 fileMessage 78 · AdequateCritical 88Details
Commit message · Elias Rohrer

Validate Esplora merkle proof against the block header's merkle root

`EsploraSyncClient::get_confirmed_tx` parsed the SPV proof returned by
the Esplora server but threw away the security check: the merkle root
computed by `PartialMerkleTree::extract_matches` was discarded
(`let _ = …`), and only the leaf-equality check (`matches[0] == txid`)
remained. Anyone can construct a single-leaf partial tree advertising
an arbitrary txid via `PartialMerkleTree::from_txids(&[txid], &[true])`,
so this gate was vacuous.

A malicious or compromised Esplora server could therefore convince
`EsploraSyncClient` that any transaction was confirmed in any block by
returning `MerkleBlock { header: real_header, txn: forged_partial_tree }`,
causing LDK to feed a synthesized `ConfirmedTx` into `Confirm`
implementations such as `ChannelManager` / `ChainMonitor`. From there,
the channel-funding / closing / HTLC flows would treat the transaction
as confirmed at an attacker-chosen height, with consequences ranging
from premature state transitions to force-close races.

Capture the merkle root returned by `extract_matches` and require it
to equal `block_header.merkle_root`, matching the validation the
Electrum sibling already performs via `validate_merkle_proof`.

This commit fixes a security bug in LDK's Esplora client. The client was supposed to verify that a transaction was really included in a Bitcoin block by checking a cryptographic proof (a merkle proof) from the Esplora server. But it only checked that the proof contained the right transaction ID, not that the proof actually connected to the real block header. Because a single-leaf proof can be forged for any transaction ID, a malicious or compromised Esplora server could trick LDK into believing any transaction was confirmed in any block. That could trigger wrong channel state changes, premature force-closes, or other fund-risking behavior. The fix makes the client compare the computed merkle root from the proof against the block header's merkle root, which is the same check the Electrum client already did.

Security candidateFree pending_query_count slot when DNS proof build failsby Elias Rohrer · fb4103d7 · May 5, 2026 · 1 fileMessage 95 · StrongHigh 76Details
Commit message · Elias Rohrer

Free pending_query_count slot when DNS proof build fails

`OMDomainResolver` rate-limits in-flight DNSSEC proof builds via a
`pending_query_count` counter capped at `MAX_PENDING_RESPONSES` (1024).
The counter was only released when the proof build succeeded, so any
failure mode -- NXDOMAIN, insecure zones, unreachable resolvers, I/O
timeouts, malformed names -- permanently consumed a slot.

Because the queried name is attacker-controlled (it travels in over a
`DNSSECQuery` onion message from any LN peer, given DNS resolution is
an opt-in network-advertised feature), an adversary could exhaust the
counter with ~1025 failing queries and persistently DoS the resolver
for any subsequent legitimate BIP-353 lookups, until the process is
restarted.

Always release the slot once the proof build completes, regardless of
outcome, and add a regression test which points the resolver at a
TCP-refusing local port and asserts the counter returns to zero.

This commit fixes a denial-of-service bug in rust-lightning's optional DNS resolver feature. A counter that limits how many DNS lookups can run at once was only being reset when a lookup succeeded; any failed lookup (bad name, unreachable server, timeout, etc.) permanently consumed one slot. Because any Lightning peer can ask for a DNS lookup, an attacker could send about 1,025 failing requests and permanently block the resolver until the node is restarted. The fix moves the counter reset so it always runs when the lookup finishes, success or failure, and adds a test that triggers a failure and checks the counter returns to zero.

Security candidateIgnore stale announcement_signatures instead of force-closingby Jeffrey Czyz · 80528b15 · Apr 28, 2026 · 2 filesMessage 86 · StrongModerate 62Details
Commit message · Jeffrey Czyz

Ignore stale announcement_signatures instead of force-closing

A peer may transmit `announcement_signatures` signed over a stale
`short_channel_id` — most plausibly a retransmission or a peer
implementation whose view hasn't caught up to our post-splice
promotion. Verifying such sigs against the current
`UnsignedChannelAnnouncement` (built from `self.funding`) always fails
the hash check, which previously produced a force-close.

BOLT #7 does not require closing in this situation; the mismatch is
expected across splice handoffs. Short-circuit with
`ChannelError::Ignore` when `msg.short_channel_id` doesn't match the
current funding's scid, leaving the genuine invalid-signature paths
in place for sigs that actually target our current scid.

This change fixes a bug where a Lightning node would unnecessarily force-close a payment channel if its peer sent an outdated 'announcement_signatures' message referencing the old channel identifier after a splice (a channel funding update). The node now simply ignores these stale messages, keeping the channel open. The bug was not a direct theft of funds, but it could cause unwanted channel closures and disruption.

Security candidateSkip pre-splice announcement_signatures on reestablishby Jeffrey Czyz · 21fed17c · Apr 28, 2026 · 2 filesMessage 88 · StrongModerate 57Details
Commit message · Jeffrey Czyz

Skip pre-splice announcement_signatures on reestablish

When a splice transaction confirms on both sides while peers are
disconnected, each peer's `channel_reestablish` carries
`my_current_funding_locked` with the splice txid. In the reestablish
handler, `get_announcement_sigs` was called before the inferred
`splice_locked` was processed and the splice was promoted, so
`self.funding` still pointed to the pre-splice scope. If
`announcement_sigs_state` was `NotSent`, the generated
`announcement_signatures` carried the pre-splice `short_channel_id`
and bitcoin key — which the peer (having already promoted via its own
inferred `splice_locked`) would verify against the post-splice
`UnsignedChannelAnnouncement`, failing the signature check and
force-closing.

Skip the pre-promotion call when `my_current_funding_locked` matches
the splice we've already confirmed — i.e. `pending_splice.sent_funding_txid`
is set and equals the peer's locked txid. `maybe_promote_splice_funding`
emits correct post-splice signatures after the inferred `splice_locked`
is processed.

This commit fixes a bug in the Lightning Dev Kit where reconnecting after a channel 'splice' (a funding update) could cause one peer to send outdated channel announcement signatures. The peer receiving those stale signatures would reject them and force-close the channel. The fix skips generating announcement signatures until the splice has been promoted to the new funding, so both sides agree on the current channel state.

Clear disconnect timer when exiting quiescence

Several code paths exit quiescence by calling `clear_quiescent()` directly
without also clearing the disconnect timer via `mark_response_received()`.
This causes the timer to fire after the splice completes or is aborted,
spuriously disconnecting the peer.

Replace `clear_quiescent()` with `exit_quiescence()` in
`on_tx_signatures_exchange`, `reset_pending_splice_state`, and
`peer_connected_get_handshake`, which clears both the quiescent state and
the disconnect timer.

It splits fuzz test runners into two groups based on whether they use fake or real cryptographic hashes, moves shared code into a common crate, and updates CI scripts, coverage tooling, and documentation accordingly. There is no change to the actual Lightning protocol library or to how production nodes behave, and no security vulnerability is introduced or fixed.

Commit message · Matt Corallo

Use `saturating_mul` when multiplying feerates by the fee spike buf

In theory a channel's feerate could be set to some absurd value
(millions of satoshis per vB) and we'd overflow the fee spike
buffer, accepting the absurd fee and ignoring our fee spike buffer
check. This is harmless - the counterparty has much easier ways of
bricking the channel if they want, and paying several BTC in fees
is probably not the best way. Our commitment transaction and dust
fee exposure logic all correctly map the `u32` to a `u64` before
multiplying, making them overflow-safe.

Still, its good to fix overflows because it is a remotely-reachable
crash in debug builds.

AI analysis · Moderate 53/100

This patch fixes a potential integer overflow when calculating Lightning channel fees. If a malicious or misconfigured peer set an extremely high transaction fee rate, the software could overflow a 32-bit integer while applying a safety buffer multiplier. In release builds this would silently wrap around and ignore the safety buffer; in debug builds it would crash. The fix uses saturating multiplication so the result stays at the maximum safe value instead of overflowing. The commit notes this is not practically exploitable for theft because a peer already has easier ways to disrupt a channel, but it removes a remotely reachable debug crash.

Security candidateCorrect blinded path forwarding CLTV expiry checkby Matt Corallo · 8d8313de · Apr 13, 2026 · 2 filesMessage 95 · StrongLow 43Details
Commit message · Matt Corallo

Correct blinded path forwarding CLTV expiry check

The `PaymentConstraints::max_cltv_expiry` field exists to ensure
a blinded path expires across the entire path at once - once the
path is expired it will be rejected by the introduction node rather
than traversing the entire path and failing at the destination.

This was broken by the fact that we were checking the outgoing CLTV
value rather than the incoming one, which admittedly isn't clear in
the spec but is somewhat implied. Here we fix this, updating a test
which was actually (kinda) exploiting this privacy loss rather than
allowing the HTLC to fail at the introduction node.

This, of course, does not risk funds loss as our own CLTV policy is
still enforced on top. The only impact it could have is a recipient
which was relying on blinded path expiry to avoid some cost (e.g.
LSPS5 node wakeup cost) involved in receiving an HTLC they
ultimately fail, though I'm not aware of any practical deployment
where that is a concern.

This commit fixes a bug in how Lightning Dev Kit checks expiry times for payments sent through 'blinded paths' (a privacy feature that hides the final recipient). The code was accidentally checking the outgoing expiry time instead of the incoming one. Because of this, a payment could travel deeper into the blinded path than intended before being rejected, slightly weakening the privacy/cost protection that blinded-path expiry is meant to provide. The commit explicitly states this does not risk loss of funds.

Add `unannounced_channel_max_inbound_htlc_value_in_flight_percentage`

Users can now configure two different max percentages for the channel
value that can be allocated to inbound HTLCs, one for announced
channels, and another for unannounced channels.

We also bump the default maximums to 25% for announced channels, and
100% for unannounced channels, to bring them closer to what people would
expect.

This commit is a feature change, not a security bug fix. It splits one setting into two: the maximum share of a channel's value that can be tied up in incoming payments (HTLCs). Announced channels now default to 25% and unannounced (private) channels default to 100%. The change also updates many tests to keep their old behavior by explicitly setting the previous 10% default. There is no direct vulnerability in the diff, but the higher defaults slightly increase funds-at-risk if a node goes offline while many HTLCs are pending.

Security candidateReturn `BestBlock` when deserializing chain-synced structsby Matt Corallo · 413c937d · Mar 30, 2026 · 11 filesMessage 85 · StrongLow 29Details
Commit message · Matt Corallo

Return `BestBlock` when deserializing chain-synced structs

The deserialization of `ChannelMonitor`, `ChannelManager`, and
`OutputSweeper` is implemented for a `(BlockHash, ...)` pair rather
than on the object itself. This ensures developers are pushed to
think about initial chain sync after deserialization and provides
the latest chain sync state conviniently at deserialization-time.

In the previous commit we started storing additional recent block
hashes in `BestBlock` for use during initial sync to ensure we can
handle reorgs while offline if the chain source loses the
reorged-out blocks. Here, we move the deserialization routines to
be on a `(BestBlock, ...)` pair instead of `(BlockHash, ...)`,
providing access to those recent block hashes at
deserialization-time.

This commit changes how Lightning Dev Kit (LDK) deserializes (reloads from disk) important chain-following objects like ChannelMonitor and ChannelManager. Previously, deserialization returned just a single latest block hash paired with the object. Now it returns a BestBlock structure that includes the latest block hash plus a short history of recent block hashes. This is a defensive, API-shaping change intended to make downstream developers handle initial chain sync more safely after a restart, especially if the Bitcoin chain source has lost blocks from a reorganization while the node was offline. It is not a patch for an active exploit; it is a hardening/refactoring change that improves resilience against reorgs during startup.

This commit renames and expands a special Lightning channel-acceptance API. Previously, users could manually accept an inbound channel from a trusted peer and treat it as confirmed immediately (zero-conf). Now the same API also allows setting the counterparty's required channel reserve to zero. A zero reserve means the peer can spend their entire balance and force-close the channel at no cost to themselves, which removes a key financial deterrent against cheating. The change is explicitly documented as dangerous and only appropriate for trusted peers, but it introduces a new risky option that did not exist before.

Prevent downgrades in case holder-selected reserve is zero satoshis

We prevent downgrades from 0.3 only in the case where the
holder-selected reserve is 0, as we've had support for counterparty
selected 0-reserves in prior releases.

There is no need for this sentinel in `FundingScope` serialization code
as this would only apply to pending `FundingScope`'s.

Also, if the current scope has some zero-reserve, that reserve is
carried over to all pending scopes automatically. Therefore it is not
possible for a pending scope to have some 0-reserve without the current
one also having it.

This commit adds a marker to saved channel data so that older versions of the software will refuse to load it if the channel uses a zero-satoshi reserve chosen by the local user. That prevents accidental downgrades that could mishandle such channels, because older releases only understood zero-reserve channels when the remote side chose the zero reserve. It is a forward-compatibility guard, not a fix for an active attack.

This commit fixes a bug in the Lightning Dev Kit where a payment channel could end up with a commitment transaction that has zero spendable outputs. In Bitcoin, a transaction with no outputs is invalid and cannot be broadcast, which would make it impossible to enforce or recover funds from the channel if something goes wrong. The patch adds checks during channel opening, fee updates, and HTLC handling to ensure that zero-reserve channels always keep at least one valid output.

Defer monitor update completions after funding spend

When no_further_updates_allowed() is true and the persister returns
Completed, ChainMonitor now overrides the return to InProgress and
pushes a MonitorEvent::Completed directly into pending_monitor_events.
In release_pending_monitor_events, these deferred completions are
appended after per-monitor events, so ChannelManager sees the
force-close MonitorEvents before the completion.

This eliminates phantom InProgress entries that would never complete:
previously, a rejected pre-close update (e.g. commitment_signed
arriving after funding spend) returned InProgress with no completion
path, blocking MonitorUpdateCompletionActions (PaymentClaimed,
PaymentForwarded) indefinitely. A subsequent post-close update
returning Completed would then violate the in-order completion
invariant.

This commit fixes an internal bug in the Lightning Dev Kit's chain monitoring code. When a channel is being force-closed (because the funding transaction was spent), the code could previously get stuck: it would report a monitor update as 'in progress' forever, blocking legitimate payment completion events like 'PaymentClaimed' or 'PaymentForwarded'. In some cases, this could also break the ordering rules for monitor updates. The fix defers the completion signal until after the force-close events are processed, allowing payments to complete normally and preventing the ordering violation. There is no direct evidence this was exploitable by an attacker; it appears to be a correctness/robustness fix.

Security candidatefuzz: use process::exit panic hook in stdin_fuzz on macOSby Joost Jager · 39c8b0c8 · Mar 20, 2026 · 72 filesMessage 95 · StrongInformational 15Details
Commit message · Joost Jager

fuzz: use process::exit panic hook in stdin_fuzz on macOS

On macOS, panic=abort causes the process to call abort() which sends
SIGABRT. The ReportCrash daemon then tries to generate a crash report,
leaving the process stuck in an uninterruptible wait state that cannot
be killed even with SIGKILL. This makes stdin_fuzz unusable for crash
reproduction on macOS.

Install a custom panic hook (gated behind #[cfg(target_os = "macos")])
that flushes stdout (preserving log output), prints the panic info with
a full backtrace to stderr, then calls process::exit(1) to terminate
cleanly before the abort machinery runs. The hook is only installed on
macOS to avoid interfering with debuggers like GDB on Linux.

Release tx_signatures after async monitor update completes

In 83b2d3e, we reworked `ChannelManager::funding_transaction_signed`
such that it would also for a user to cancel a splice up until they send
`commitment_signed`. Previously, we would would only emit
`Event::FundingTransactionReadyForSigning` when both nodes exchanged
`commitment_signed` and the corresponding monitor update completed. With
the event now being generated immediately after the nodes exchange
`tx_complete`, we now need to handle the monitor update not having
completed by the time we are ready to send `tx_signatures`.
Unfortunately, we also did not have test coverage, allowing this to go
unnoticed until being caught by the fuzzer due to a debug assertion.
Doing so avoids a potential funds-loss scenario if the funding
transaction confirms without the counterparty's signature for our
commitment being durably persisted.

This commit fixes a bug in the Lightning Dev Kit where, during a special channel operation called splicing, the node could release its signatures for the new funding transaction before the local channel monitor had durably saved the counterparty's signature for the new commitment. If the funding transaction confirmed on-chain while the counterparty's signature was not yet persisted, the node could be left unable to enforce its funds, creating a potential loss of funds scenario. The fix delays sending `tx_signatures` until the asynchronous monitor update completes, and adds tests to cover this case.

This commit adds a regression test that reproduces a crash (panic) in the Lightning Dev Kit's channel monitoring logic. The crash happens when a blockchain event and a peer message arrive in an unlucky order: after the counterparty's commitment transaction confirms on-chain, the local node still processes a new commitment_signed message from that peer. The code marks the channel monitor as frozen, but a later legitimate payment preimage claim returns a success status, conflicting with the earlier frozen status and triggering an internal assertion that crashes the node.

Security candidateReplace dual-sync-async persistence panic with Watch contractby Joost Jager · 970d4d94 · Mar 19, 2026 · 7 filesMessage 95 · StrongLow 44Details
Commit message · Joost Jager

Replace dual-sync-async persistence panic with Watch contract

Commit 0760f99 ("Disallow dual-sync-async persistence without
restarting") added a panic in non-test builds when a Persist
implementation returns both Completed and InProgress from the same
ChannelManager instance. However, this check runs against the status
that ChainMonitor returns to ChannelManager, not the raw Persist
result. When ChannelMonitor::update_monitor fails (e.g. a
counterparty commitment_signed arrives after a funding spend
confirms), ChainMonitor persists the full monitor successfully but
overrides the return value to InProgress. If the user's Persist impl
only ever returns Completed, this override triggers a false
mode-mismatch panic.

This replaces the panic with a per-channel contract at the Watch
trait level: a Watch implementation must not return Completed for a
channel update while prior InProgress updates are still pending.
Switching from Completed to InProgress is always allowed, but
switching back is impractical because the Watch implementation cannot
observe when ChannelManager has finished processing a
MonitorEvent::Completed. The documentation on
ChannelMonitorUpdateStatus is updated to describe these rules.

The mode tracking and panic checks from 0760f99 are removed and
replaced with a panic that validates the new contract directly on
the in-flight update state. Legacy tests that switch the persister
between modes mid-flight can opt out via
Node::disable_monitor_completeness_assertion().

This commit fixes a bug where the Lightning Dev Kit (LDK) node software could crash with a false alarm panic. The panic was meant to catch incorrect use of two persistence modes, but it could also fire in legitimate situations because it checked an overridden status value rather than the raw result from the user's persistence code. The fix replaces the broad panic with a more precise rule at the Watch trait level and adds a test-only opt-out for legacy tests that intentionally switch modes mid-flight.

Security candidateFail HTLCs from late counterparty commitment updates after funding spendby Joost Jager · 3e1a18c8 · Mar 18, 2026 · 4 filesMessage 73 · AdequateModerate 68Details
Commit message · Joost Jager

Fail HTLCs from late counterparty commitment updates after funding spend

When a ChannelMonitorUpdate containing a new counterparty commitment is
dispatched (e.g. via deferred writes) before a channel force-closes but
only applied to the in-memory monitor after the commitment transaction
has already confirmed on-chain, the outbound HTLCs in that update must
be failed back.

Add fail_htlcs_from_update_after_funding_spend to ChannelMonitorImpl
which detects this race condition during update_monitor. When a
LatestCounterpartyCommitmentTXInfo or LatestCounterpartyCommitment
update is applied and the funding output has already been spent, the
function iterates all outbound HTLCs from the update and creates
OnchainEvent::HTLCUpdate entries for those that need to be failed back.
These entries mature after ANTI_REORG_DELAY blocks, giving time for the
peer to potentially broadcast the newer commitment.

HTLCs that appear as non-dust outputs in the confirmed commitment
(whether counterparty or holder) are skipped, as they will be resolved
on-chain via the normal HTLC timeout/success path. HTLCs already
fulfilled by the counterparty (tracked in counterparty_fulfilled_htlcs)
are also skipped. Duplicate failures from previously-known counterparty
commitments are handled gracefully by the ChannelManager.

This commit fixes a race condition in the Lightning Dev Kit's channel monitoring code. In simple terms, when a Lightning channel is force-closed, the software must correctly fail back any outstanding payments that are stuck. Previously, if a monitor update containing new payment information was queued but only applied after the channel's funding transaction was already spent on-chain, those payments might not be properly failed back. The patch adds logic to detect this situation and create the necessary failure events, while skipping payments that already have on-chain outputs or were already fulfilled. It also ensures the event processor is notified after flushing monitor updates.

This commit fixes validation checks in a Lightning service feature (LSPS1) that lets users place orders for liquidity.

The patch adds those missing checks and also protects against a rare integer overflow when adding two balance amounts together. A malicious or malformed order could have slipped through and caused the service to accept terms it never intended to offer.
