The refreshed Bitcoin Core tx_valid reference tests expect newer
witness versions to short-circuit successfully when
DISCOURAGE_UPGRADABLE_WITNESS_PROGRAM is unset.
The refreshed Bitcoin Core script reference tests cover cases where an
empty CHECKSIG input must still fail pubkey encoding checks before the
interpreter falls back to a generic false result.
Add support for newly named Bitcoin Core script-test result tokens and
skip taproot placeholder rows that are already covered by
TestTaprootReferenceTests.
As we introduced a new MaxProtocolMessageLength, MsgReject max size
should also be lowered to MaxProtocolMessageLength.
If this isn't lowered and if we ever have a MsgReject message that is
bigger than MaxProtocolMessageLength, then the MaxPayloadLength() check
on the message will pass but it won't serialize in functions
WriteMessageWithEncodingN() and WriteV2MessageN() as both of these
functions have a separate check that each message isn't greater than
MaxProtocolMessageLength.
Go's net.ParseIP stores IPv4 addresses as 16-byte IPv4-mapped IPv6
addresses (::ffff:x.x.x.x). NetAddressV2FromBytes dispatches on
address length, so these 16-byte addresses were incorrectly matched
as IPv6 and serialized with networkID 0x02 (IPv6) instead of 0x01
(IPv4). BIP-155 doesn't forbid this, but Bitcoin Core silently drops
them anyway (undocumented, naturally). Detect IPv4-mapped IPv6
addresses and extract the 4-byte IPv4 address with the correct
networkID.
Add a test case that passes a 16-byte IPv4-mapped IPv6 address
(::ffff:127.0.0.1) to NetAddressV2FromBytes and asserts that it
is recognized as IPv4 with networkID 0x01, not IPv6 with 0x02.
Revert MaxMessagePayload to 32MB and introduce MaxProtocolMessageLength
(~4MB) for p2p network message size enforcement. This mirrors Bitcoin
Core's separation between MAX_SIZE (32MB serialization bound) and
MAX_PROTOCOL_MESSAGE_LENGTH (~4MB network limit) introduced in
bitcoin/bitcoin#5843.
The previous commit reduced MaxMessagePayload to 4MB, but that constant
is also used as a serialization bound for deriving maxTxInPerMessage,
maxTxOutPerMessage, and variable-length string limits in contexts beyond
network messages (e.g. database deserialization via MsgTx.Deserialize).
While consensus limits keep real values well below the 4MB-derived
bounds, conflating the two constants is architecturally incorrect and
diverges from Bitcoin Core's design.
The new MaxProtocolMessageLength is now enforced in all four network
read/write paths: WriteMessageN, WriteMessageWithEncodingN,
ReadMessageWithEncodingN, and ReadV2MessageN (which previously had no
overall message size check).
In this commit, we remove the localhost-only restriction for sync peer
candidates on regtest and simnet. Previously, isSyncCandidate rejected
any regtest peer not on 127.0.0.1 or localhost, which prevented IBD
when nodes run in Docker containers on bridge networks (e.g. 172.18.0.x).
We also replace fragile pointer-equality checks against global chaincfg
params with value-based Name field comparisons, and extend the exception
to simnet since it has the same local-only usage pattern.
In this commit, we fix `IsRoutable` to correctly reject IPv6 addresses
whose first 16-bit group is zero (i.e., in the `0000::/16` reserved
block per RFC 4291). Differential fuzzing between btcd and Bitcoin Core
revealed that addresses like `0:9881:8181:8181:fe00🅰️9e:9801` were
slipping through as routable when they shouldn't be.
We add a new `zero6Net` (`0000::/16`) definition alongside the existing
`zero4Net`, and introduce an `IsZero` helper that checks both. The /16
prefix width is intentional: the broader /8 reservation would
incorrectly catch allocated sub-ranges like `0064:ff9b::/96` (RFC 6052,
NAT64). We also carve out an exception for RFC 6145 translated IPv4
addresses (`::ffff:0:0:0/96`), which live within `0000::/16` but are
valid for routing.
Test coverage includes the original bug report address, various
zero-prefix IPv6 addresses, the RFC 6145 exclusion, and corresponding
`GroupKey` entries to confirm they land in the "unroutable" bucket.
Fixes#2431
html/template automatically HTML-escapes special characters to prevent
XSS, which can silently corrupt arbitrary script data. Since the output
is binary script bytes and not HTML, this escaping provides no benefit
and might breaks correctness.
Add a recoverFromPanic method that catches panics in peer goroutines,
logs the error with a stack trace, and disconnects the offending peer
instead of crashing the entire node. This provides defense-in-depth
against future unknown panics in message parsing or handling.
Protect two goroutine boundaries:
- The negotiation goroutine in start(), which handles pre-handshake
message decoding via BtcDecode.
- The inHandler goroutine, which processes all post-handshake messages.
Refactor inHandler cleanup from manual end-of-function calls to
defer-based cleanup, ensuring close(p.inQuit) always runs even on
panic, which prevents stallHandler from hanging.
Add a bounds check against the remaining slab capacity so oversized
witness items return a decode error. Add a regression test for witness
items that overflow the decode slab.
This issue was discovered through differential fuzzing between btcd and
Bitcoin Core.
IPv4-mapped IPv6 addresses (::ffff:0:0/96, RFC 4291) sent with networkID
0x02 (IPv6) in addrv2 messages are now properly rejected. Per BIP155,
these addresses should use networkID 0x01 (IPv4) instead. This aligns
btcd's behavior with Bitcoin Core's addrv2 handling.
Changes:
- Add ipv4MappedPrefix constant for the ::ffff:0:0/96 prefix
- Add isIPv4Mapped() helper function to detect these addresses
- Update readNetAddressV2() to skip IPv4-mapped addresses with IPv6 networkID
- Add comprehensive test coverage for IPv4-mapped address detection
This issue was discovered through differential fuzzing between btcd and
Bitcoin Core.
Add detection and filtering of IPv6 ORCHIDv2 addresses as defined by
RFC7343 (2001:20::/28). These addresses are overlay routable
cryptographic hash identifiers and should not be treated as routable
peer addresses, consistent with Bitcoin Core's behavior.
Changes:
- Add rfc7343Net variable for the 2001:20::/28 address block
- Add IsRFC7343() function to detect ORCHIDv2 addresses
- Update IsRoutable() to exclude RFC7343 addresses
- Add comprehensive test coverage for RFC7343 detection
- Fix incorrect error message in TestIPTypes (IsRFC1918 -> IsRFC6145)
Verify that startSync skips header download and directly requests
blocks when the header chain is already caught up to the peer's
height but the block chain lags behind.
ince we now utilize ProcessBlockHeaders, we change the startSync
function to utilize the block index for downloading blocks/headers
instead of using the headerList in SyncManager.
This tests that after two nodes diverge and reconnect, the shorter
node downloads blocks starting from the fork point rather than its
current height. It verifies the reorg completes, both nodes
converge, and the orphaned fork appears as a side chain via
getchaintips.
Refactor fetchHeaderBlocks and buildBlockRequest to take an explicit
peer parameter instead of implicitly using sm.syncPeer. This makes the
caller responsible for choosing which peer to fetch from and adds a nil
guard to prevent a panic if the sync peer has been cleared.
headers
We introduce buildBlockRequest that'll create a getdata message based
off of the block index instead of the headerList in SyncManager.
The new fetchHeaderBlocks utilizes buildBlockRequest and now will create
fetch requests based on the processed block headers.
