rust: Reduce count of deps

We use the same versions of the deps as the standard library to avoid
vendoring additional versions

The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit removes several vendored Rust library dependencies (libc, proc-macro2, quote, syn, unicode-ident) and updates the Cargo.lock file. The stated goal is to reduce dependency count by using the same versions as the Rust standard library. There is no direct code change to the BitBox02 firmware logic, no bug fix, and no security patch visible in the diff.

Recommended action

No security action required. Treat as routine maintenance / dependency cleanup. Verify that the build still reproduces deterministically and that no required dependency was accidentally removed.

Security signals we found

01

No security-relevant code changes

02

No vulnerability fix or mitigation present in diff

03

No vendor security disclosure or advisory referenced

04

Dependency cleanup only

backup: validate decoded seed length

This update fixes a bug in how the BitBox02 hardware wallet reads backup files from an SD card. A tampered backup file could claim to contain a seed longer than the 32-byte limit, which previously caused the device to panic (crash) when li…

rust: initialize C output buffers

This commit fixes a class of low-level memory-safety bugs where Rust code was given buffers containing uninitialized bytes. Rust's rules require every byte of a slice to be initialized, even if the function will overwrite them. Passing uni…

eth: limit EIP-712 recursion depth

This commit adds a hard limit on how deeply nested Ethereum typed-message (EIP-712) structures can be when the BitBox02 hardware wallet signs them. Without the limit, an attacker could craft a message type that refers to itself over and ov…
