The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit only adds new unit tests for existing code. It does not change any production behavior, fix a bug, or introduce new functionality. The tests verify that certain security checks (proof length and domain separator checks) already reject malformed inputs. There is no direct security risk in this commit itself.

Recommended action

No action required. Review the tests for correctness and consider whether the existing production checks they exercise are sufficient. If any test fails, investigate the implementation, not this commit.

Security signals we found

01

Test-only commit with no production code changes

02

Tests verify existing Merkle proof length validation rejects internal-node-as-leaf and overlong proofs

03

Tests verify existing leaf preimage domain-separator check rejects internal-node preimages and non-zero prefixes

04

No patch to actual cryptographic or parsing logic
