typo in Nuke Device UX message
What changed, and why it matters
This commit fixes a single missing space in a user-facing warning message shown before the COLDCARD device wipes itself and becomes permanently unusable. The text previously read 'purgeall related settings' instead of 'purge all related settings'. There is no security issue, no code behavior change, and no risk to users beyond a slightly awkward sentence.
No security action needed. Treat as a cosmetic/documentation-quality fix.
Security signals we found
No strong security signals were identified.
Evidence from the diff
The change is a one-character whitespace addition in shared/actions.py inside the nuke_device() async function. It concatenates two string literals passed to ux_confirm(); adding a space after ‘purge’ corrects the grammar of the confirmation prompt. The function logic, the destructive action it triggers, and all security properties remain identical.
