HIGH:
- HIGH-1 enforce_value_cap helper applied to wallet.send,
wallet.mint, wallet.mint.cip68_nft, wallet.script.spend. each
gained a `force` arg; cap also covers the user_lovelace+ref_lovelace
sum on cip68_nft. wallet.stake.delegate skipped (2 ada deposit is
protocol-fixed, not a transfer to a non-wallet destination).
- HIGH-2 wallet.tx_summary mcp tool — read-only decode of a conway
tx cbor → typed TxSummary (inputs, outputs+assets, fee, certs,
mint, witness count, aux-data presence). new aldabra-core::inspect
module. callers MUST run this before wallet.sign_partial /
wallet.submit_signed_tx on any cbor they didn't build themselves.
MEDIUM:
- M-1 zeroize stack-resident extended_bytes after SecretKeyExtended
consumes them. tx.rs::payment_key_to_private + sign.rs::add_witness.
- M-2 atomic 0o600 mnemonic file create via OpenOptions+
OpenOptionsExt. removes the prior toctou window between fs::write
(default umask) and chmod 600.
- M-3 prompt_or_env_passphrase + unlock_passphrase helpers wrap the
passphrase in Zeroizing<String>. ALDABRA_PASSPHRASE env still
unzeroizable in the env block itself (documented headless tradeoff).
- M-4 is_hex_64 validator on submit_tx response — koios error wrapped
in quotes can no longer round-trip as a fake tx_hash.
LOW + cleanup:
- L-1 checked_add for inner sums of checked_sub patterns in tx.rs.
remaining sites (mint.rs, stake.rs, plutus.rs) deferred — same
pattern, can't overflow with realistic cardano amounts but
defensive. picked up next.
- L-2 root key scoped to a block in main.rs — XPrv drops + wipes
after deriving payment_key + stake_key + address. saves ~96 bytes
of secret material lifetime.
- L-3 TxStatus gained a Pending variant for the mempool-but-not-yet-
confirmed case. previously rendered as Confirmed{block_height: None}
which was misleading.
- L-4 .expect("we built this key") → typed ? propagation in
tx.rs::prepare_payment.
- L-5 removed dead fns (build_and_sign, decode_hex) + unused imports.
WALLET GENERATION (audit prompted gap-find):
aldabra had only an import path. no "generate fresh wallet" tool.
- Mnemonic::generate() — bip39::Mnemonic::generate_in(English, 24)
with the rand feature. returns (Mnemonic, Zeroizing<String>) so
the caller can display the phrase once for cold backup.
- aldabra --generate-mnemonic — print fresh phrase, exit. no disk.
- aldabra --bootstrap-new — generate + display + encrypt one-shot.
- bip39 dep gains the rand feature for OsRng-backed generation.
- standard 24-word BIP-39, recoverable from any cardano wallet.
mcp tools: 16 → 17 (added wallet.tx_summary).
unit tests: 88 → 93. cargo audit clean (0 cves), cargo build clean
(0 warnings). all four cli flags smoke-tested:
--generate-mnemonic prints + exits; --bootstrap-new generates +
encrypts + derives a real preprod address; mnemonic.age has 0o600
perms confirmed atomic.
