The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit only adds a new test case to a JSON test file. It checks that Eclair correctly rejects a specific malformed BOLT 12 offer string whose Bech32 padding bits are invalid. There is no code change, no fix, and no behavior change in the application itself.

Recommended action

No action required. Treat as a routine test-data update. If reviewing related BOLT 12 parsing code, ensure the existing Bech32 decoder already enforces zero padding bits, since this test vector assumes that behavior.

Security signals we found

01

Test-only change with no production code modification

02

Test vector validates rejection of malformed Bech32 padding in BOLT 12 offers
