Commit communication

Does the history explain itself?

Message quality measures whether a commit identifies its scope, purpose, rationale, testing, and supporting references. It does not change the security-severity score.

Merge pull request #722 from Chaitanya-Keyal/psbt-huge-fee-warning

This commit adds a new user-facing safety feature: a warning screen when a Bitcoin transaction's fee is unusually high compared to the amount being sent. It does not fix a bug or vulnerability; it helps users notice potentially costly mist…

This commit is a performance cleanup, not a security fix. It calculates the 'is this fee unusually high?' flag once during transaction parsing instead of recalculating it every time a screen asks. The actual fee-checking logic and warning …

Count an unresolved output cosigner set as a mismatch

Compare cosigners before presuming multisig change

This commit tightens how SeedSigner decides whether a multisig payment back to the user is real 'change' or actually a payment to a different wallet. Before, if an output contained the user's key and looked like the same kind of multisig (…

AI analysis · Informational 12/100

This commit only adds a new automated test to the project. It does not change any production code, so by itself it cannot introduce a security vulnerability or fix one. The test checks that the software can correctly handle PSBT files where wallet fingerprints are all zeros, which can happen when a wallet is created from an extended public key (XPUB) without a full derivation path. The test verifies the software can match the public keys against the seed and fill in the correct fingerprint.
