website_verify resolved every asset through get_user_by_pubkey_hash, but
users.pubkey_hash only ever holds the BTC key's hash. On this backend only BTC
could ever resolve; ltc, xmr, wow and grin were structurally impossible, and the
failure was indistinguishable from an unregistered user, so the page told people
to register with an extension they already had.
That did not surface while smirk.cash pointed at the legacy backend, which
resolves by asset key against its own database. It becomes the whole bug the
moment the site is repointed here, so it has to land with that change, not after.
get_user_by_pubkey_hash stays as the BTC fallback: of 95 users on this backend,
84 arrived through migrate-legacy, which imported identity without keys, and
would otherwise stop resolving entirely.
The rejection message is unchanged and still says nothing about whether an
account exists.
Fixes every confirmed backend finding from the v0.3.0 pre-ship review.
Identity (the two that corrupt accounts):
- nostr_register creates a row with pubkey_hash NULL, so that wallet's later
/auth/extension call matched nothing, fell through the rotation path (which no
client ever satisfies, since nothing sends rotation_signature) and minted a
SECOND account. A fingerprint match on a NULL-pubkey_hash row now adopts the
submitted pubkey_hash onto that row, but only when the row's on-file BTC key
equals the submitted one, so a bare fingerprint (which check_restore discloses,
and is therefore not a secret) still cannot claim an account.
- The fingerprint-ownership check no longer short-circuits on returning_by_pubkey.
It was skipped for returning users, so a fingerprint owned by another row got
backfilled, violated the UNIQUE index, and 500'd that account on every
subsequent login.
- The rotation proof is verified over a distinct, instance- and target-bound
message. It shared the login message, so a captured login signature was a
replayable rotation proof against another instance.
Abuse control:
- The rate limiters key on the real client IP, honouring X-Forwarded-For only
from a trusted proxy. Behind the TLS terminator every request looked like
127.0.0.1, so the whole internet shared one bucket and ~3 req/s 429'd every
wallet unlock globally.
- A PoW solution is single-use instead of replayable for the challenge TTL.
- Delegated /verify is opt-in and rate-limited; it was an unauthenticated
amplifier into Electrum, LWS and a full-genesis grin scan.
- A grin scan with no start_height gets the same depth policy and PoW price as
one that passes a height, instead of an unbounded free scan.
Retention and logging:
- The retention sweep is implemented AND scheduled. RETENTION_* was advertised
and inert, which made the privacy policy's retention promise untrue. Zero
means keep forever, and each statement is batched so a backlog drains over
ticks rather than holding row locks.
- login_events.ip_hash is no longer written, and legacy values are scrubbed:
nothing ever read it, so it was retention without a purpose.
- Tracing spans log user_id only, not the raw npub and username.
- secret-scan.sh matches the coverage its comment claims.
Also fixes the test suite, which did not compile on this commit: NewSession
gained an id in c64cd9b and two call sites were never updated. mint_session now
binds one session_id for both the token and the row, since a different id there
would silently recreate the bug c64cd9b fixed.
- console section: restart_apply_mode (manual | auto), an operator setting (runtime-safe,
DB-overridable via /admin/config), env RESTART_APPLY_MODE default manual.
- Graceful shutdown: main serve now awaits SIGTERM/Ctrl-C OR an in-app shutdown signal
(AppState.shutdown Notify) via with_graceful_shutdown, draining in-flight requests.
- PUT /admin/config in `auto` mode self-restarts shortly after responding to apply a
restart-required change (systemd Restart=always brings it back with the new config);
`manual` just flags restart_pending. The console warns before an auto save.
Stage 3 complete: operator config is readable + editable through the real validated,
audited, precedence-based layer; runtime-safe edits apply live, infra edits restart.
cargo all-targets clean, lib tests pass.
Wire the settings overlay into the live config path:
- AppState.config: Config -> Arc<ArcSwap<Config>> (hot-swappable effective config) +
config_base: Arc<Config> (immutable env-only). New AppState::cfg() accessor; every
config read goes through it (state.cfg().field), so a runtime-safe operator edit is
seen on the next request. One Config type, no parallel path.
- Boot (main.rs): load_settings_overlay -> Config::apply_overlay(validate) -> build
every client/worker/router from the EFFECTIVE config. A persisted overlay that no
longer validates is ignored (boot env-only + loud log), never bricks. Env-only when
ADMIN_KEY_INTEGRITY_SECRET is unset.
- Migrated ~59 state.config.X reads to state.cfg().X across api/*; bound guards where a
reference outlives the statement; integrity_secret returns owned String.
- Test harness builds AppState with ArcSwap + config_base (arc-swap dev-dep).
Behavior-preserving: with no operator_settings rows, effective == env config.
cargo check --all-targets clean; lib tests 256/0.
Escrow settlement, audited guards ported verbatim:
- mark_tip_claiming: status IN('pending','claiming') AND confs>=required AND
funding_amount_verified AND sweep_confirmed_at IS NULL (double-claim guard).
- confirm_tip_sweep: RECORD-not-settle, first-recorder-wins (COALESCE +
sweep_txid IS NULL OR =$3) — RBF-steal safe; reconciler owns claiming->claimed.
- confirm_sweep_onchain: SOLE writer of 'claimed', one-way status='claiming' AND
sweep_confirmed_at IS NULL lock; settles only after on-chain sweep confirms to
per-asset depth (btc/ltc 1, wow 4, xmr 10).
- clawback: 5-status set incl 'cancelled', blocked once sweep_confirmed_at set.
- revert_sweep_on_reorg: only from 'claimed', re-opens to 'claiming' + clears txid.
- sweep_reconciler: address-history-driven (not recorded txid), pick_winner
(earliest height, lexi-smallest tie), pg advisory locks on a pinned conn for
single-instance safety; reorg pass reverts only on affirmative vanish, never on
probe error. DMs stubbed, exactly-once stamps kept.
- POST claim/confirm-sweep/clawback endpoints + openapi.
- 16 integration + 12 reconciler unit tests; build clean; SocialTipRow dead_code
allow removed (all fields now read).
- attach_funding_to_tip: atomic guarded UPDATE (COALESCE + CASE), idempotent on
same txid, 400 on a different txid; non-drafts land pending_confirmation so the
verifier (not the caller) owns the ->pending transition.
- worker (src/tips/confirmation.rs): XMR/WOW confirmation counting via LWS;
amount verification for BTC/LTC (Electrum full history, confirmed-only) +
XMR/WOW (classify_funding_amount, separate-then-subtract net). Verified->pending,
Short->funding_mismatch; Unfunded/Drained/LwsError never mutate status (outage-
safe). Spawned behind FEATURE_TIPS on a 60s loop w/ catch_unwind guard.
- POST /tips/social/:id/attach-funding endpoint + openapi.
- 5 DB tests + 6 classify unit tests; build clean.
Adversarial review of the relay admission surface:
- FAIL-SAFE on admission death: nostr-rs-relay fails OPEN if its gRPC admission
server is unreachable, so a dead admission = an unrestricted relay. The backend
now EXITS if the admission service stops (supervisor restarts a clean pair);
documented in RELAY.md. Pin the relay image to a digest (compose note).
- Registration-oracle protection: validate() now refuses a non-loopback
RELAY_ADMISSION_BIND unless RELAY_ADMISSION_ALLOW_PUBLIC=true (+ test).
- No N+1 on crafted events: recipient p-tags are capped (20, deduped) and resolved
in ONE batched query (db.any_registered_npub) instead of one-per-tag.
- Defence-in-depth size cap: admission denies events over max_event_bytes before
any DB work (the relay enforces its own limit too).
- Docs: RELAY.md Security section (fail-open, loopback oracle, default PoW=0 spam
footgun, client sender-verification); config.toml relay port 8088 (not 8080);
Docker Hub image; .env.example RELAY_ADMISSION_ALLOW_PUBLIC.
Note: the client-side sender-impersonation blocker is fixed separately in the
monorepo (verifying gift-wrap unwrap).
nostr-rs-relay's [grpc] event_admission_server calls Authorization.EventAdmit
once per inbound event; we answer PERMIT/DENY so the write policy is enforced at
ingest (dynamic, per-event — a static pubkey whitelist can't do inbox/PoW).
- proto/nauthz.proto (matches nostr-rs-relay's contract) compiled by build.rs;
protoc is vendored (protoc-bin-vendored) so a source build needs no system
protobuf-compiler. tonic/prost added (reuse the hyper/tower/h2 stack axum
already pulls in); server-only codegen.
- infra/relay/nauthz: AdmissionService resolves author + recipient (p-tag)
registration via the DB, runs the pure policy engine, returns the decision;
served on a loopback socket (spawned in main only when relay enabled + policy
!= open), mirroring the admin plane. Fail-closed on a malformed request.
- db: is_registered_npub(hex) — a no-PII membership check safe to call per event.
- tests/relay_admission.rs: L1 handler tests (is_registered_npub membership +
outbox/inbox/deny-non-giftwrap/deny-unregistered-recipient through the real
event_admit handler against live Postgres).
First slice of the optional Nostr relay (messaging plane), behind a swappable
seam mirroring the PaymentProvider pattern so nostr-rs-relay can be replaced by
another relay (strfry/external) or another messaging protocol later.
- config: MessagingConfig { relay: RelayConfig } — RELAY_ENABLED (off by default),
mode (bundled|external), advertised ws(s):// URL, write_policy
(inbox-outbox default | author-allowlist | open), inbound_pow_bits (NIP-13),
admission_bind, resource caps. validate() fail-closes (URL required + ws(s)://
+ wss in prod, known policy, PoW <= 40, admission bind for non-open). +7 tests.
- infra/relay: RelayProvider trait + from_config (feature-gated, fail-closed) +
the default nostr-rs-relay/external adapter; AppState.relay wired
(lib/main/tests).
- infra/relay/policy: PURE admission engine (WritePolicy, decide, NIP-13
leading_zero_bits): open permits all; author-allowlist gates on a registered
npub; inbox-outbox permits a registered author's outbox OR a kind-1059 gift-wrap
addressed to a registered user (inbox), the external-inbound branch optionally
behind a PoW gate. Registration lookups are resolved by the caller and passed as
booleans so the decision is pure + fully unit-tested (10 tests).
The gRPC event-admission service that calls this engine, capabilities/NIP-05
advertising, packaging, and the client DM stack land in the following slices.
Optional REGISTRATION_REQUIRE_PAYMENT gate: a new wallet must settle an
invoice on an external, non-custodial payment processor before it can
register. Pull model — the grant reads the processor's authenticated API as
the source of truth, so there is no inbound webhook to secure and a settled
invoice cannot be forged over HTTP. Returning wallets and self-hosting bypass
it, exactly like the invite and PoW gates.
- infra/payment: a pluggable PaymentProvider seam (neutral Invoice /
InvoiceStatus / InvoiceRequest) with a BTCPay-compatible first adapter that
also serves this project's xmrcheckout/wowcheckout apps + the BTCPay Monero
plugin, so "operator picks any coin" costs one adapter. A future ETH/native
adapter (BTCPay serves neither) implements the same trait. Only `Settled`
grants (unknown status fails safe); the API key rides in a redacting Secret
and hostile responses are size-capped.
- payment_invoices: invoice<->pubkey_hash binding + atomic single-use consume
(UPDATE ... WHERE consumed_at IS NULL AND pubkey_hash=$ RETURNING), so one
invoice grants at most one registration and never a different identity.
- POST /auth/payment-invoice mints + binds; enforce_payment (bind -> processor
`Settled` -> atomic consume) runs beside enforce_invite; payment_invoice_id
on the register request.
- Fail-closed config: https-in-prod, positive-decimal price, >= 1 confirmation
(bars a 0-conf settled-then-double-spent free registration), bounded expiry.
/capabilities advertises payment_required + price; OpenAPI + .env.example.
Tests: adapter status/speedPolicy mapping + config validation (unit), and L1
binding + atomic single-use (concurrent-consume-one-wins, mis-bind rejected).
Reviewed adversarially across payment-integrity, leak/oracle, and config/DoS
lenses; the confirmed findings (0-conf, expiry bound, Settled-means-paid-in-full
adapter contract, rotation-branch bypass guard) are addressed here.
The last operator subsystem: a user who no longer trusts the backend can reach in
and delete their data. Action-bound and two-phase.
- migration 20260626000003: erasure_requests (user_id ON DELETE SET NULL so the
completed tombstone survives the user delete; one-live-request-per-user partial
unique index; due index).
- Proof model (§5.2): every action is a fresh NIP-98 signed action (purpose
erasure_request/confirm/cancel/export) bound to a single-use challenge nonce +
canonical descriptor + (confirm/cancel) the explicit erasure_id. A session
token is NEVER sufficient. Erasure targets only the users.id the proof's key
resolves to (via linked nostr_pubkey); leaked identifiers are never selectors.
Nonce consumed AFTER signature checks (forged sig can't burn a victim's nonce).
- Public routes (proof-gated): POST /account/erasure/challenge, /account/erasure
(request; ABSENT-user path returns identical shape — no account-existence
oracle), /account/erasure/:id/confirm (revokes live sessions), DELETE
/account/erasure/:id (cancel during grace), POST /account/export (see-before-
delete; omits view keys; audited).
- Execution (§5.7): a background sweeper claims confirmed-past-grace rows
(FOR UPDATE SKIP LOCKED) and runs ONE fail-closed tx: purge login_events
(the origin/asset/time quasi-identifier; default) or anonymize; scrub audit
PII; DELETE users (schema cascades wallets/sessions/keys/owned slatepacks,
SET NULL on counterparty/audit/login links); tombstone; hash-chained
account_erasure_completed audit.
- config: ERASURE_GRACE_PERIOD_HOURS (72h default); validate() requires the
integrity secret + PUBLIC_API_URL when erasure is enabled.
- 1 L1 test: export -> request -> confirm -> execute -> account gone, plus the
absent-user constant-shape path.
Scope (v1, documented): live primary. No at-rest view key exists to crypto-shred
(stateless-forward), so backup residue is bounded by retention-window docs, not
crypto-shred (non-v1 per decisions ledger). Deferred: LWS de-registration queue +
read-back probe (operators run their own LWS), audit cross-reference scrub on
OTHER users' rows, restore_attempt salted-rotated fingerprint, retention sweepers,
NIP-17 DM warning, in-flight-value blockers (no swaps/tips in the clean core),
hard per-day export rate cap, /admin/erasure/stuck observability. Routes are off
the public OpenAPI for now (stable contract; annotate later).
9 confirmed findings (review wbdf3c0sd), all fixed:
S4 (capabilities):
- REGRESSION: /capabilities reported grin_relay:false for a working relay (S4
wrongly coupled it to Grin chain serviceability). The relay is a non-custodial
mailbox — wallet broadcasts locally — so it is decoupled again. Removed the now-
dead grin_relay downgrade note.
S3 (bootstrap latch):
- A DELETE of the latch row escaped Locked without Tampered detection on a
CLI-bootstrapped-but-no-users instance (adoption keyed off `users` only). Boot
now adopts on has_any_users() OR has_any_admin_keys(), so a deleted latch
re-latches Locked instead of silently dropping to uninitialized.
- bootstrap_admin's single-bootstrap guard was a check-then-insert race (two
concurrent `setup` could seed two admins). It now takes the admin-keys mutation
advisory lock (shared with add/revoke/rotate) at the top of its tx.
S2 (admin posture + landing):
- Hard bind guard matched loopback by string prefix ("localhost".starts_with) —
"localhost.evil.com" slipped past. Now resolves via to_socket_addrs and requires
EVERY resolved addr to be loopback.
- host_allowed's IPv6 loopback check was an unanchored prefix ("[::1]" matched
"[::1].evil"); now anchored to exactly "[::1]" / "[::1]:port". +regression tests.
- Anti-clickjacking headers (X-Frame-Options/CSP) are now applied on the 403
Host-reject path too (computed on both branches, headers added once).
- GET /api/v1/server-info now returns a BARE 404 when landing is off (the
{error,code} envelope itself hinted the route exists).
- Public landing `chains` now uses the SAME serviceability predicate as
/capabilities (no over-advertising an unserviceable chain).
- Removed the dead/misleading PUBLIC_EXPOSE_FEATURES toggle (never read; the
feature tuple is intentionally never emitted anonymously).
Dismissed after verification: latch chains-by-flag (dup), title length bound
(operator-owned + escaped), prices:true with empty PRICES_ASSETS (documented).
140 lib + 140 integration green, no openapi drift, scans clean.
Admin posture (§2.1/§2.2):
- Hard fail-closed bind guard in main: a non-loopback ADMIN_BIND refuses startup
unless ADMIN_ALLOW_PUBLIC_BIND=true (was a warning).
- admin_plane_guard middleware on the admin router: Host allowlist
(localhost/127.0.0.1/[::1]/configured TOR_ADMIN_ONION; a missing Host is allowed
since rebinding must supply one and the bind is the primary control) to defeat
DNS-rebinding against the loopback socket, plus X-Frame-Options: DENY +
CSP frame-ancestors 'none' (anti-clickjacking). Still no CORS on the admin plane.
Public landing (§2.3), default-OFF, one fingerprint surface:
- GET /api/v1/server-info — built from a hand-written ServerInfo allowlist (never
by serializing config/state). Default projection is minimal { software.name,
status }; version (coarse major.minor), chains, price_feed, and uptime (bool
`up` only) are each individually opt-in. The enabled-feature tuple is NEVER
emitted anonymously (connected clients use /capabilities).
- GET / — minimal HTML (operator title HTML-escaped); bare 404 when off (does not
hint an admin plane exists). server-info also 404s when off.
- config: ADMIN_ALLOW_PUBLIC_BIND, TOR_ADMIN_ONION; PUBLIC_LANDING_TITLE +
per-field PUBLIC_EXPOSE_VERSION/CHAINS/PRICE_FEED toggles.
Tests: host_allowlist + html_escape unit tests; landing off->on minimal-projection
(asserts only software+status, no version/chains/features); admin-plane Host-403 +
anti-clickjacking headers. Landing/admin stay off the public OpenAPI.
Deferred (documented): §2.5 NIP-05 consent-gating (changes existing
/.well-known/nostr.json behavior — needs the standing v0.2.4-compat verification
first), §2.3 k-anon public stats, response-header/TLS-fingerprint stripping (proxy
/ops-doc concern).
No trust-on-first-use: bootstrap mode is an explicit, MAC-protected latch
(server_config singleton), NOT inferred from "no admin keys". The latch MAC
(ADMIN_KEY_INTEGRITY_SECRET over setup_state|bootstrap_completed_at) means a
DB-write attacker who restores a pre-bootstrap backup or flips the state to
re-open TOFU produces a mismatch the boot path detects and fails closed on.
- migration 20260626000002: server_config (id=1 singleton; setup_state +
bootstrap_completed_at + integrity_mac).
- db::server_config: read_setup_state -> {Fresh,Uninitialized,Locked,Tampered}
(MAC-verified); has_any_users; init_server_config (adoption: a live upgrade
latches `locked` so it never exposes a setup window; a truly empty DB begins
uninitialized); bootstrap_admin (insert the FIRST active admin AND latch
locked + hash-chained audit, ONE tx; refuses if an active admin already
exists); reset_setup (shell recovery; recomputes MAC, preserves admin keys).
- main boot (admin enabled): adopt/await-bootstrap, and FAIL CLOSED on a tampered
latch.
- smirk-admin: `setup --pubkey` (the supported headless bootstrap) + `reset-setup
--i-understand`.
- 1 L1 test: Fresh -> locked(valid) -> wrong-secret Tampered -> raw-flip Tampered
-> reset Uninitialized -> bootstrap refused while an active admin exists.
Deferred (documented): the HTTP /setup/* wizard. Per the spec the CLI / `docker
exec` is the SUPPORTED bootstrap (pure-PaaS without shell is explicitly
unsupported), so the loopback TTY wizard is a later convenience, not load-bearing.
"Sign in with Smirk" for operators. Auth is a NIP-98 signed action over a
single-use nonce (AUTHN) + the MAC'd allowlist (AUTHZ), composed in admin_guard
so a protected route physically cannot run without both. All rejections collapse
to one opaque 401 (no enumeration oracle).
- src/api/admin.rs: admin_guard (verify access token -> live session by jti ->
live MAC-verified, activated allowlist entry) + AdminContext; handlers:
- challenge: mint a 120s admin_login nonce + return the {url, instance_id} the
wallet must bind.
- verify: verify_signed_action (purpose/nonce/descriptor/instance) THEN consume
the nonce (forged sig can't burn a victim's nonce; replay loses the race) ->
authorize (pending key allowed for first login, which activates it) -> mint +
persist session AND the login audit row in ONE tx (fail-closed) -> bump
last_used.
- refresh: re-run FULL authorization before minting (closes the "8h refresh is
the real blast radius" gap) + constant-time refresh-hash bind + rotate jti so
the old access token dies.
- logout: revoke the session; audit. me: guarded whoami.
- admin_router (lib): served on a SEPARATE loopback socket in main (confidentiality
by socket, not middleware); no CORS layer (cross-origin browser calls blocked);
warns if bound non-loopback (hard bind-guard lands with admin posture). Routes
are intentionally absent from the public OpenAPI.
- config: ADMIN_PUBLIC_URL (the signed-action u-tag base; validated when enabled).
AppState.admin_sessions (Some only when enabled). AdminSessionManager.mint_access
(refresh) + db helpers (create_admin_session_audited, touch_admin_key_last_used).
- test harness: admin_router() + request_on(router); 1 L1 test exercising the full
flow end-to-end incl. user-token rejection, replay rejection, jti rotation, and
post-logout revocation.
NOTE (for the upcoming S1 review): admin-login timing-oracle hardening (fixed-cost
allowlist probe + jittered 401 floor, spec §1.3) is deferred — the loopback/onion
exposure + single-use nonce + signature gate are the v1 boundary. Per-pubkey
backoff (§0.5) also pending.
The shared server-nonce store every signed action consumes (admin login,
first-run setup, self-service erasure). DB-backed so consumption is atomic and
correct under concurrent requests and a future load-balanced fleet:
DELETE FROM challenges WHERE nonce=$1 AND purpose=$2 AND expires_at > NOW()
RETURNING subject
Winning the race returns one row; zero rows = replay/expired/wrong-purpose =>
reject (no TOCTOU). issue_challenge mints a 256-bit nonce bound to a purpose and
optional subject; consume_challenge is the atomic single-use step that pairs with
verify_signed_action (already built, §0.1). Periodic expiry sweep bounds the
table; the table holds no secret and is documented as backup-excluded
(ephemeral, links pubkey->time).
migration 20260625000001; ConsumedChallenge exported; 3 L1 tests (consume-once /
replay-rejected, wrong-purpose rejected, expired rejected).
Cached crypto→fiat price feed, refreshed by a background task and served from an
in-memory snapshot — no upstream call on the request path. Public and
feature-flagged: when FEATURE_PRICES is off, /prices is 404 and no upstream is
ever contacted.
Per-feed control, as a public server needs: PRICES_ASSETS narrows which feeds an
instance quotes (unset = all supported; an explicit list serves a subset; empty
serves none), validated fail-closed against SUPPORTED_PRICE_ASSETS. Provider
(PRICES_PROVIDER, coingecko) and currency (PRICES_CURRENCY, usd) are configurable;
the refresh interval is clamped to a provider-friendly minimum.
- infra/prices: PriceClient (feed whitelist → provider coin ids), bounded by the
HTTP client timeout; non-finite/negative/missing quotes are skipped, not faked.
A fetch failure keeps the last good snapshot. Drift guard: a test asserts the
provider mapping covers exactly SUPPORTED_PRICE_ASSETS.
- main: background refresh task only when enabled and at least one feed is set.
- AppState.prices snapshot; handler 404s when disabled.
- openapi (prices tag); unit tests + L1 test over both feature-flag states.
Add tiered per-IP rate limiting to the router, completing the assembly:
- STRICT tier (~2 req/s, burst 20) on the unauthenticated, abuse-prone
surface: /api/v1/auth/* and /api/v1/website/*. This closes the
website-challenge growth vector (the prior rate-limit LOW): an unauthenticated
flood of challenge requests is now throttled per IP.
- NORMAL tier (~10 req/s, burst 60) on the authenticated wallet/identity API.
- PeerIpKeyExtractor keys on the peer IP; `main` now serves with
into_make_service_with_connect_info::<SocketAddr> so the IP is available, and
the test harness injects a loopback ConnectInfo (each test builds a fresh
router with fresh limiter state).
Over-limit returns 429. The limiter sits inside the global layers (CORS/timeout/
body/compression/trace) and in front of the handlers.
L1 test proves it throttles: a 40-request burst to a strict-tier route returns
429 (the governor runs before the handler, so even unauthenticated requests
count). All 33 integration tests + 114 lib tests pass through the fully-layered
router; openapi unchanged.
Final wallet-handler slice. An async store-and-forward mailbox for interactive
Grin transfers between two registered Smirk users, over the grin_slatepacks db.
Reworked clean from the legacy relay — NOT a port.
Endpoints (under /api/v1/wallet/grin/relay, JWT-gated):
- POST create {recipient_user_id, slate_id, slatepack, amount_nanogrin}
- GET pending -> the caller's inbox
- POST get {slate_id} -> poll a relay's state (sender/recipient)
- POST respond {slate_id, response_slatepack} (recipient)
- POST finalize {slate_id, tx_hash} (sender; RECORDS the txid only)
- POST cancel {slate_id} (sender or recipient)
Non-custodial: stores only opaque (encrypted) slatepacks + lifecycle status;
never holds keys, finalizes, or broadcasts. The wallet broadcasts locally (via
/wallet/grin/broadcast) and reports the txid here — diverging from the legacy
server-side post_tx (see docs/private/OWN_BACKEND_CONVERGENCE.md).
Controls + hardening (incl. fixes from the adversarial review workflow):
- Per-action authz: caller must be the slate's sender/recipient; a non-party
gets 404 (no existence oracle).
- slate_id is UNIQUE (+ validated as a UUID) and mutations key on the
authorized row's PRIMARY KEY, not slate_id — so a duplicate slate_id can't
brick a relay (fetch_optional-on-2-rows 500) or let a slate_id-keyed UPDATE
touch another row. create maps the unique violation to 409.
- State transitions are ATOMIC: the status + expiry preconditions live in the
UPDATE WHERE clause (not a Rust read-check-write), so respond-twice and
cancel-races-finalize cannot occur; a non-qualifying transition -> 409.
- TTL enforced at the action boundary (respond/finalize require expires_at >
now) + a periodic expire_old_slatepacks sweep in main.rs (relay-enabled only).
- Recipient must be a registered user; slatepack sizes capped (64 KiB).
- Behind FEATURE_GRIN_RELAY (default on).
6 paths + schemas + grin_relay tag in openapi (drift-clean). 4 L1 integration
tests against live Postgres: full lifecycle, unregistered-recipient 400, auth
gate, non-party/non-recipient 404s.
Add ChainClients (infra/chains.rs): per-chain data-source handles built once at
startup from config and shared via AppState. Each client is present only when
its chain feature flag is on, and a malformed chain endpoint now fails startup
(fail-closed) rather than the first request. Cloneable (grin's session state is
shared via Arc) so it lives in the cloneable AppState.
Foundation for the wallet-handlers phase — handlers will read these clients
from State. No endpoints yet (openapi unchanged).
- shared build_router() (lib) so main + tests exercise identical wiring
- tests/common: spins the real router + AppState against TEST_DATABASE_URL;
self-skips when unset (cargo test stays green without a DB). Deterministic,
non-secret test JWT/peppers; ephemeral generated identities only — no funded
or sensitive wallet seeds (those stay in a separate gitignored L3 harness).
- tests/db_queries: validates migrations + db layer against real Postgres
(peppered identity lookups, UNIQUE->409, session create/lookup/revoke,
key upsert/list/delete, restore-attempt counts).
- tests/auth_flow: HTTP flows through the real router (health, auth gate,
refresh rotation + old-token revocation, username set+lookup, key register+
fetch, NIP-05 directory).
- CI: new integration job with an ephemeral postgres:16 service.
- 82 tests total (69 unit + 13 integration), all green against live PG.
Complements the monorepo's client-side suite (it tests the wire format the
client sends; the client tests the wallet side); mirrors its secret-handling
(env-driven, gitignored). Mirrors the L0-L5 tiering from docs/engineering.
- api/website.rs: sign-in-with-wallet (dapp connect). challenge bound to origin
+ short TTL; verify is single-use (remove-before-verify, race-safe), expiry-
checked, signature via Result<(),AppError> verifiers (no oracle), resolves an
EXISTING user by the proven key's pubkey_hash (never mints identity), mints a
Platform::Web session.
- api/users.rs: username set/get + by-username lookup (JWT-gated, 409 on taken,
constant-shape lookup); per-asset key registration bound to the JWT user
(no spoofable user_id) + public key-directory reads.
- api/nip05.rs: /.well-known/nostr.json directory (username -> nostr_pubkey).
- Wired into api/mod.rs; website+users nested at /api/v1, nip05 at root; all
paths/schemas registered (openapi.json now 17 endpoints).
- main.rs: periodic GC of expired web challenges (bounds the in-memory store).
Adversarially reviewed (register_key authz + website identity-binding both
hold; no critical/high). 69 tests green. Deferred LOW: per-IP rate-limit on the
website routes lands with the router-assembly unit.
api/middleware.rs: Bearer access-token extraction; client_ip() trusts XFF only
behind config.trusted_proxies (fail-closed against spoofing).
api/auth.rs: extension_register (PoW-gated; derivation-rotation requires a
signature from the on-file key, no fingerprint hijack), check_restore (per-IP +
per-fingerprint rate limits, enumeration/timing-resistant), pow_challenge,
refresh_token (re-checks active session + revoke-then-issue rotation, race-safe),
logout, get_me, nostr_login (login-grade NIP-98, never creates a user, bound to
config public_api_url), nostr_link (JWT + state-change verify_signed_action,
fail-closed nonce stub) + DTOs + routes().
Wired into api/mod.rs + nested at /api/v1 in main.rs; all 8 paths registered in
ApiDoc so openapi.json covers the auth surface (was vacuous).
Drafted+hardened via draft->adversarial-review->revise workflow; independently
re-reviewed (no critical/high). 58 tests, all gates green.
Known LOW (tracked): concurrent first-registration of the same new pubkey_hash
can 500 instead of idempotent re-read; client-retryable.
- minimal Axum server exposing GET /health
- OpenAPI contract generated from handlers (gen_openapi -> openapi.json),
drift-gated in CI so the spec can never silently diverge from the code
- CI: secret-scan + gitleaks, openapi drift gate, fmt/clippy/build/test/doc-test, cargo-deny
- Cargo.lock tracked for reproducible builds; publish=false; pinned toolchain
- README, SECURITY.md, deny.toml, .env.example
