The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit adds a new recovery-word entry screen for the upcoming BitBox03 hardware wallet. It is a large feature patch: it introduces a dedicated BIP39 wordlist keyboard, a new recovery-words review screen, and changes how the device handles going back versus cancelling during seed restoration. There is no direct evidence in the commit that this fixes a security vulnerability; it reads as a user-experience and hardware-support change. The code does improve clarity around cancel/back handling and adds confirmation prompts before aborting a restore, which is a sensible defensive design, but it is not presented by the vendor as a security fix.

Recommended action

No immediate security action is required. Treat this as a normal feature merge. If auditing the BitBox03 bring-up, reviewers may want to verify that the new wordlist keyboard and recovery-words screen do not introduce touch-input edge cases, memory leaks, or race conditions in the async UI framework, and that the new `WordlistEntryAbort` paths are exercised in device tests.

Security signals we found

01

New UI workflow distinguishes 'back' from 'cancel' during seed restoration, reducing accidental aborts.

02

Cancel actions still require an explicit confirmation prompt before the restore is abandoned.

03

Wordlist keyboard disables keys that cannot lead to a valid BIP39 word, preventing invalid-word compositions at the widget level.

04

No vendor disclosure of security relevance, CVE, or bug bounty attribution in commit or supplied references.
