Summary

ExtendedBLSPrivKey, ExtendedBLSPubKey and ExtendedEd25519PrivKey put the child index into the HMAC as u32::from(child). That conversion maps every Normal256 / Hardened256 child to u32::MAX, so a path with a DIP-14 256-bit level derived the same key for every identifier at that level, silently.

DIP-14 defines 256-bit children for secp256k1 derivation only; dashbls and SLIP-10 have 32-bit indices, so there is no correct key to return. The derivers now refuse such a child instead:

  • BLS (derive_priv_with_mode, derive_pub_with_mode, and so every derive_priv / derive_pub / derive_path variant): Error::InvalidDerivationPath.
  • Ed25519 (ckd_priv, and so derive_priv): Error::InvalidChildNumberFormat.

Found while reviewing #1049, whose DIP-13 application paths use 256-bit levels. #1049 now fixes the key type at ECDSA, so it no longer depends on this, but a hand-built path could still reach these derivers.

Testing

  • New test_256_bit_children_are_refused in derivation_bls_bip32 and derivation_slip10 (private, public and path derivation). Both fail on dev and pass with the change.
  • cargo test -p key-wallet -p key-wallet-ffi --all-features: all pass except four performance_tests throughput assertions that failed only under a concurrent build and pass when run alone (9/9).
  • cargo clippy -p key-wallet -p key-wallet-ffi --all-targets --all-features -- -D warnings: clean.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • BLS and SLIP-10 key derivation now reject unsupported 256-bit child indices rather than treating them as duplicate 32-bit indices.
    • Invalid indices return a derivation error, preventing key derivation from proceeding with an ambiguous index. This applies to private and public BLS derivation, as well as SLIP-10 derivation paths, so invalid child indices are handled consistently across these derivation methods.

Walkthrough

BLS BIP32 and SLIP-10 derivation reject 256-bit child numbers before converting them to 32-bit indices. Tests verify the corresponding errors for direct derivation and paths.

Derivation validation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Reject 256-bit child indices
key-wallet/src/derivation_bls_bip32.rs, key-wallet/src/derivation_slip10.rs
BLS BIP32 returns InvalidDerivationPath for 256-bit private and public children. SLIP-10 returns InvalidChildNumberFormat. Tests cover both implementations.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to c55fc

The production fix correctly rejects DIP-14 256-bit child indices in BLS and Ed25519 derivation. However, the new BLS test does not compile, which breaks the entire key-wallet unit-test build. Add an unwrap before derive_pub to fix it. The fix is one line, but it should land before merging.

…rivation

ExtendedBLSPrivKey / ExtendedBLSPubKey and ExtendedEd25519PrivKey hash the child index as u32::from(child), which maps every Normal256 / Hardened256 child to u32::MAX. A path with a 256-bit level therefore derived one key for every identifier at that level, with no error. DIP-14 defines 256-bit children for secp256k1 only, and dashbls / SLIP-10 have 32-bit indices, so these derivers now refuse such a child: InvalidDerivationPath for BLS (private and public), InvalidChildNumberFormat for Ed25519.
