The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit updates the Mimblewimble (Mweb) wallet code in Stack Wallet. It adds a one-time scan of older transactions when restoring a wallet, fixes a bug where spent Mweb coins were not always marked as used, and changes how transaction fees are calculated. The fee-calculation change removes a previous workaround that added an extra 1 satoshi to every fee, which could have caused users to slightly overpay. There is no clear security vulnerability in the diff, but the changes touch sensitive wallet logic (secret scanning, UTXO state, and fee math), so bugs here could affect funds or privacy.

Recommended action

Treat as a routine functional patch, but recommend a focused review of: (1) the new historical UTXO scan to ensure it does not miss blocks or double-count UTXOs, (2) the fee-rate conversion to confirm Int64(feeRate * 1000) matches the server's expected units and does not underpay, and (3) the empty catch blocks around stream.timeout to ensure silent failures do not leave the wallet in an inconsistent state. No immediate security response is indicated by the diff alone.

Security signals we found

01

Change to cryptographic secret handling path (scanSecret/spendSecret used in UTXO scan and transaction creation)

02

Database state-management change for spent Mweb UTXOs

03

Fee-calculation arithmetic change that removes a +1 satoshi rounding workaround

04

Addition of a timed stream listener (2-second timeout) for UTXO scanning with empty catch blocks

05

No explicit security claim, CVE, or advisory in commit message or diff
