lib: Fix ssm pool double free

2026-02-22T15:04:31+00:00

Remove double-free in ssm_pool_destroy — ssm_pool_close already frees the pool. The pool sharding test had a free spbs/ptrs on partial malloc failure. Now initializes children array to -1 to prevent reading uninitialized values. Signed-off-by: Dimitri Staessens Signed-off-by: Sander Vrijders

lib: Fix invalid malloc pointer type

2026-02-22T15:04:24+00:00

The static analyzer complained about the struct in6_addr malloc being converted to uint8_t *. Fixed by casting IN6_LEN to a size_t numeric value instead of the direct sizeof. Signed-off-by: Dimitri Staessens Signed-off-by: Sander Vrijders

lib: Add struct llist for lists tracking len

2026-02-18T06:58:21+00:00

The DHT uses a struct {struct list_head, size_t len} pattern, which is also useful in the registry and other places. Having a struct llist (defined in list.h) with consistent macros for addition/deletion etc removes a lot of duplication and boilerplate and reduces the risk of inconsistent updates. The list management is now a macro-only implementation. Signed-off-by: Dimitri Staessens Signed-off-by: Sander Vrijders

lib: Add SLH-DSA tests and per-algorithm PQC gating

2026-02-18T06:53:35+00:00

This replaces the single HAVE_OPENSSL_PQC/DISABLE_PQC with per-algorithm CMake variables (ML-KEM, ML-DSA, SLH-DSA), gated by the OpenSSL versions: ML-KEM and ML-DSA require >= 3.4, SLH-DSA >= 3.5. SLH-DSA was already working, but now added explicit authentication tests for it with a full certificate chain (root CA, intermediate CA, server) to show full support. Rename PQC test files and cert headers to use algorithm-specific names (ml_kem, ml_dsa, slh_dsa) and move cert headers to include/test/certs/.

irmd: Add strength-based crypto negotiation

2026-02-18T06:52:56+00:00

Each side's configured cipher, KDF, and KEX algorithm now represents a minimum security floor ("at least this strong"). Cipher and KDF use strongest-wins: the server compares ranks and selects the stronger of client vs server config. The negotiated values are sent in the response header. The client verifies the server's response meets its own minimum, which prevents downgrade attacks on the wire. KEX uses a minimum-floor check: the server extracts the client's algorithm from its public key and rejects if it ranks below the server's configured algorithm. A server configured with ML-KEM will reject all classical algorithms. Special case: for client-encap KEM, the client has already derived its key using its KDF, so the server must use the same KDF and can only reject if it is too weak. The supported_nids arrays are ordered weakest to strongest and serve as the single source of truth for ranking. Cipher ranking (weakest to strongest): aes-128-ctr, aes-192-ctr, aes-256-ctr, aes-128-gcm, aes-192-gcm, aes-256-gcm, chacha20-poly1305 KDF ranking (weakest to strongest): blake2s256, sha256, sha3-256, sha384, sha3-384, blake2b512, sha512, sha3-512 KEX ranking (weakest to strongest): ffdhe2048, prime256v1, X25519, ffdhe3072, secp384r1, ffdhe4096, X448, secp521r1, ML-KEM-512, ML-KEM-768, ML-KEM-1024, X25519MLKEM768, X448MLKEM1024 Negotiation outcomes: strong srv cipher + weak cli cipher -> use strongest weak srv cipher + strong cli cipher -> use strongest srv encryption + cli none -> server rejects srv none + cli encryption -> use client's strong srv KEX + weak cli KEX -> server rejects weak srv KEX + strong cli KEX -> succeeds wire tamper to weaker cipher -> client rejects Signed-off-by: Dimitri Staessens Signed-off-by: Sander Vrijders

lib: Fix SSM PUP creation on OS X

2026-02-13T08:22:29+00:00

OS X doesn't support chmod on shm files after creation. Since we already set the mode at creation, that call was redundant. Fixed the getpeereid() function was not accessible because of the guards. Fixed some differences between macOS and Linux with gid_t vs int usage. Signed-off-by: Dimitri Staessens Signed-off-by: Sander Vrijders

lib: Check fchown result when creating ssm_pool

2026-02-13T08:22:29+00:00

The result of fchown and fchmod weren't checked, causing some compilers to complain. Updated the test to create a PUP instead of "non-root" version of the GSPP. Removed the environment variable for the test suffix as this is not needed. Signed-off-by: Dimitri Staessens Signed-off-by: Sander Vrijders

build: Refactor CMake back to in-tree CMakeLists

2026-02-13T08:22:29+00:00

This moves the build definitions back to src/ subdirectories (CMakeLists.txt per component). Configuration and dependencies are kept out of tree. Configuration options are bundled into cmake/config/ modules. Dependencies are grouped by component (system/, crypt/, eth/, coverage/, etc.). It now consistently uses target-based commands (target_include_directories, target_link_libraries) instead of global include_directories(). Proper PRIVATE/PUBLIC visibility for executable link libraries. CONFIG_OUROBOROS_DEBUG now properly set based on being a valid debug config (not just checking the string name). It also adds OuroborosTargets export for find_package() support and CMake package config files (OuroborosConfig.cmake) for easier integration with CMake projects. The build logic now follows more idiomatic CMake practices with configuration separated from target definitions. Signed-off-by: Dimitri Staessens Signed-off-by: Sander Vrijders

lib: Add per-user packet pools

2026-02-13T08:22:28+00:00

The IRMd will now check the user UID and GID for privileged access, avoiding unprivileged users being able to disrupt all IPC (e.g. by shm_open the single pool and corrupting its metadata). Non-privileged users are now limited to a PUP (per-user pool) for sending/receiving packets. It is still created by the IRMd, but owned by the user (uid) with 600 permissions. It does not add additional copies for local IPC between their own processes (i.e. over the local IPCP), but packets between processes owned by a different user or destined over the network (other IPCPs) will incur a copy when crossing the PUP / PUP or the PUP / GSPP boundary. Privileged users and users in the ouroboros group still have direct access to the GSPP (globally shared private pool) for packet transfer that will avoid additional copies when processing packets between processes owned by different users and to the network. This aligns the security model with UNIX trust domains defined by UID and GID by leveraging file permission on the pools in shared memory. ┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ Source Pool │ Dest Pool │ Operation │ Copies │ ├─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤ │ GSPP │ GSPP │ Zero-copy │ 0 │ │ PUP.uid │ PUP.uid │ Zero-copy │ 0 │ │ PUP.uid1 │ PUP.uid2 │ memcpy() │ 1 │ │ PUP.uid │ GSPP │ memcpy() │ 1 │ │ GSPP │ PUP.uid │ memcpy() │ 1 │ └─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ This also renames the struct ai ("application instance") in dev.c to struct proc (process).
