The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit is a routine update of third-party Rust libraries used by Core Lightning's REST plugin. It bumps versions in the package lock file and raises one direct dependency (quick-xml) from 0.39 to 0.40. The commit message does not say it fixes any security bug, and no verified security advisory was supplied. Dependency updates can sometimes include security fixes, but this change alone does not demonstrate a vulnerability in Core Lightning.

Recommended action

Treat as normal maintenance. Review the changelogs of quick-xml 0.40.1 and the updated transitive crates (especially h2, http, rustls-native-certs, prost, and zeroize) for any security advisories. Run the test suite and verify the REST plugin still builds and behaves correctly, since quick-xml is a direct dependency with a minor-version bump.

Security signals we found

01

Routine dependency version bumps in Cargo.lock

02

Direct dependency quick-xml upgraded across a minor version (0.39 -> 0.40)

03

No source code modifications or security-related commit message

04

No vendor security disclosure or CVE reference present in supplied materials

downgrade: we need to remove "impressions" from askrene datastore when downgrading to v26.06.

This is a database downgrade helper fix, not a live network vulnerability. Core Lightning's downgrade tool previously failed to strip out new 'channel impression' records when rolling a database back to version v26.06. The patch teaches th…

downgrade tool: fix invalid memory bug

This commit fixes a typo in a database downgrade helper tool. The bug caused the tool to pass a negative number (turned into a huge positive size) when copying data, which led to an out-of-memory (OOM) error. The fix swaps two variable nam…

This commit adds a regression test for Core Lightning's database downgrade path. It ensures that when a user downgrades from an upcoming v26.09 release to an older version (v26.06), the new 'impressions' data added by the askrene routing s…
