fix(sdk)!: keep Keystore's unlocked-device gate from bricking wallets and signing on defective OEM builds - #4643
Conversation
…ocked devices Some OEM builds (HONOR/MagicOS Android 16 in the field; same mechanism as Google Issue Tracker 506989112 on Fairphone) perform unlocks that never satisfy the Keystore's UNLOCKED_DEVICE_REQUIRED gate, so the lock-bound master-alias key stays denied for the whole unlock session while KeyguardManager reports the device unlocked. storeMnemonic's bounded false-locked retry (built for the transient Keystore2 blip) can never outwait that, so wallet creation was unfixably failing on those devices. Add a last rung to the ladder: when the retry schedule exhausts still false-locked, treat the device's UNLOCKED_DEVICE_REQUIRED implementation as defective and store under a new never-lock-bound alias (MASTER_ALIAS_UNBOUND — same hardware-backed non-auth AES-256-GCM, no setUnlockedDeviceRequired ever), recording the defect durably in the same atomic edit. From then on mnemonic writes go straight to the unbound alias, the createWallet preflight stops probing, reads route by the blob's recorded alias (mnemonicalias.<walletIdHex>, the privkeyalias discipline), and pre-existing lock-bound blobs are re-wrapped best-effort on their first successful read. Nothing is ever deleted or re-keyed, genuinely-locked denials keep failing fast, the auth-gated identity aliases are untouched, and healthy devices never provision the new alias — this is the #4060 no-lock-screen downgrade driven by operational evidence instead of a missing lock screen.

Final validation — Phase 2 only (queue backlog)
The fallback alias and durable defect marker are implemented coherently, and the retry/degradation paths have substantial coverage. However, the opportunistic re-wrap adds an unsynchronized write to the read path, allowing a deleted or concurrently replaced mnemonic to be restored. The change also modifies a public non-suspending method into a suspending method despite the PR declaring that there are no breaking changes; cancellation during re-wrap additionally leaves plaintext unsanitized.

- [BLOCKING] packages/kotlin-sdk/sdk/src/main/kotlin/org/dashfoundation/dashsdk/security/WalletStorage.kt:481-483: Re-wrap can resurrect a mnemonic after deletion
`retrieveMnemonicUtf8` reads the mnemonic and alias from one DataStore snapshot, decrypts the plaintext, and then performs a separate `store.edit` through `rewrapMnemonicUnbound`. If `deleteMnemonic(walletId)` completes after the snapshot/decrypt but before that edit, the re-wrap writes the old ciphertext and alias back into the store, resurrecting a mnemonic that was just deleted. The same race can overwrite a newer mnemonic written concurrently. The atomicity of the re-wrap edit does not protect the read-to-write interval because the edit is not conditional on the original blob and alias still being present. Serialize re-wraps with mnemonic writes/deletes or perform a compare-and-set edit that only replaces the entry when the original encoded blob and alias still match.

On the defect path, `plain` is decrypted and passed to `rewrapMnemonicUnbound` before ownership is returned to the caller. That function deliberately rethrows `CancellationException`; if cancellation occurs during the suspending `store.edit`, `retrieveMnemonicUtf8` exits without returning `plain`, so the caller cannot scrub it. The same ownership problem applies to an unexpected throwable from the re-wrap.

Fixed in c1ef36c — confirmed as a real race before fixing, thank you.
The read path now uses a compare-and-set edit (rewrapMnemonicUnboundIfUnchanged) that fires only while the entry still holds the exact encoded blob the read observed and the alias tag is still absent — an untagged entry being the lock-bound MASTER_ALIAS default. Both races you named become a no-op, which is the correct outcome: the racing writer already wrote the state the user asked for.
storeMnemonic's own writes stay unconditional, since those are the user's intent; only the opportunistic read-path re-wrap is guarded. This is the migrateToPolicyAlias discipline applied to mnemonics.
Regression test shouldNotResurrectAMnemonicDeletedDuringTheRewrap drives deleteMnemonic from a hook inside the unbound encrypt — precisely the window between the snapshot and the edit — and shouldNotClobberAMnemonicRewrittenDuringTheRewrap does the same with a competing storeMnemonic. Both were verified to fail with the guard defeated and pass with it restored.

🟡 Suggestion: Cancellation during re-wrap can leave decrypted mnemonic bytes unsanitized
On the defect path, plain is decrypted and passed to rewrapMnemonicUnbound before ownership is returned to the caller. That function deliberately rethrows CancellationException; if cancellation occurs during the suspending store.edit, retrieveMnemonicUtf8 exits without returning plain, so the caller cannot scrub it. The same ownership problem applies to an unexpected throwable from the re-wrap. Clear the plaintext buffer before propagating any re-wrap failure that prevents returning it, while preserving the existing best-effort behavior for ordinary re-wrap errors.

Fixed in c1ef36c.
retrieveMnemonicUtf8 now scrubs plain before propagating any throwable that prevents it being returned:
try {
rewrapMnemonicUnbound(walletId, plain, encoded)
} catch (t: Throwable) {
plain.fill(0)
throw t
}Your framing of the ownership rule is what made the fix obvious: the caller owns the buffer but only ever receives it by return, so any path that unwinds past the return has to zero it itself. Ordinary re-wrap failures never reach this catch — they remain best-effort inside rewrapMnemonicUnbound, so the existing behaviour is preserved exactly as you asked.
Regression test shouldScrubPlaintextWhenCancelledDuringTheRewrap throws CancellationException from inside the unbound encrypt and asserts the decrypt buffer is zeroed; verified to fail with the scrub removed.

You are right, and the PR body was wrong — it claimed "Breaking Changes: None". Corrected in c1ef36c, and the PR is now marked breaking (fix(sdk)!:).
ensureMasterKeyNotLockBlocked is now internal. It became suspend because the new early return consults the durable defect record, and isMasterKeyLockBindingDefectObserved() is a suspending DataStore read — but you are right that no amount of "it has no external callers" preserves compatibility on a public class, and the JVM signature does gain a Continuation.
We took the narrowing option rather than the compatibility shim: this is a createWallet preflight helper that was never intended as API. The only production caller is PlatformWalletManager.createWallet, already suspend; neither KotlinExampleApp nor dash-wallet calls it (grepped both). A non-suspending shim would have been worse than useless here — it could not consult the defect record, so on exactly the defective devices this PR exists for it would resurrect the spurious preflight failure we are removing.
Narrowing visibility is itself breaking, hence the !. For the record, every other WalletStorage method the example app uses — retrieveMnemonic, storePrivateKey, hasPrivateKey, listEntryNames, listWalletIdsWithMnemonic — was already suspend before this PR and is untouched.

…O-972)
Two QA reports on 12000007, two different failures, and neither log could
say what actually went wrong.
MO-973 (SM-A536B, shielded): the identity was created, then DPNS name
registration failed three times with
IllegalStateException: username registration did not complete
(retryable): pre-broadcast identity-key validation failure
That reason is a message-match on the FFI's "Invalid identity data", and
the label is the CONTACT-REQUEST reading of it — a missing
ECDSA_SECP256K1 encryption key. It was reported verbatim for a DPNS
registration, which needs no encryption key. The message is genuinely
overloaded: the invitation amount-cap rejection arrives with the same
prefix ("Invalid identity data: invitation amount ... exceeds the cap"),
which InviteCreationFailureTest has been pinning all along. So the label
named a cause nobody had established.
Worse, the engine's own message never reached the log at all:
RestoreIdentityWorker threw via `error(...)`, which builds an
IllegalStateException WITHOUT a cause, so `result.cause` was dropped on
the floor. BaseWorker does log.error(msg, e), so a cause WOULD have
printed as a "Caused by:" chain — there just wasn't one. The real reason
was unrecoverable from the report.
MO-972 (HONOR PTP-N49, transparent): reported as
signing failure (pre-broadcast): Keystore auth window expired
11:49:16 SendCoinsTaskRunner - authenticate with biometric
11:49:17 transparent identity funding rejected pre-broadcast
One second. The window had not expired — the label asserted a timeout
nobody measured, and sent diagnosis the wrong way. The raw error is
"Generic Error: User not authenticated": the Keystore refused to treat a
fresh biometric as satisfying the identity key's auth gate. On the
Samsung the same flow gets PAST signing and fails later, differently, so
this is device-specific — the same OEM Keystore defect family as the
false-locked master alias, on the auth-gated identity alias that
dashpay/platform#4643 explicitly does not cover (#4060's DEVICE_BOUND
policy is the remedy). Nothing to fix in the wallet beyond not lying
about the cause.
So:
- both reasons now carry the engine's message verbatim;
- the auth reason states the refusal and offers expiry as one
POSSIBILITY rather than a fact;
- RestoreIdentityWorker and CreateIdentityService's invite path throw
with `result.cause` attached, so the "Caused by:" chain reaches the
log.
Checked the coupling before changing the strings:
classifyInviteCreationFailure matches over the reason AND the whole cause
chain, so REJECTED/UNREACHABLE verdicts are unchanged — the cause still
carries "Invalid identity data". Its two test literals are updated to
mirror the new production strings, with that coupling pinned so the next
reason-string edit fails loudly instead of silently reclassifying invite
failures.
Tests: 2 added. One asserts two different "Invalid identity data"
failures no longer read alike (missing-encryption-key vs amount-cap) —
the whole point of the change. One asserts the auth reason does not claim
an expiry as fact while staying recognisable. Both mutation-verified by
restoring the old labels. Full :wallet suite green.
This is diagnosis, not a fix: MO-973's actual cause is still unknown and
the next field report is what will name it.

The degradation ladder added in the previous commit can only ever be entered from storeMnemonic, so the defect is discoverable only while WRITING a mnemonic — in practice only at wallet creation. On a wallet that predates the degradation the blob stays under the lock-bound MASTER_ALIAS, no mnemonic is ever written again, and nothing sets MASTER_LOCK_DEFECT_KEY. Since retrieveMnemonicUtf8's opportunistic re-wrap is GATED on that record, the self-heal it exists to provide can never fire on exactly the devices that need it most: the ones already carrying a wallet when the defective OEM gate shows up. Give the read the same bounded ladder as the write. The retry/classify loop both paths now share moves into retryingFalseLockedDenial, so a genuinely-locked denial still fails fast, a transient Keystore2 blip is still retried, and only a denial that outlasts the whole schedule counts as the defect. A denied read cannot heal itself — a refused decrypt never obtained the plaintext to re-encrypt — so it records the device and lets the original typed denial propagate. That record is the missing link: the next read that gets through (the gate jams for stretches of a session, not forever) finally re-wraps the blob onto the never-lock-bound alias, and later writes skip the lock-bound alias outright. Recording is best-effort — a DataStore failure is attached as suppressed rather than replacing the truthful, retryable denial. Two doc corrections found while doing it. isMasterKeyLockBindingDefectObserved claimed the record is "never cleared", but deleteAll() wipes the whole store including it; carving it out is the wrong fix — the test suite depends on deleteAll restoring a clean slate, and re-deriving the record costs one ladder (~2s) on a wiped store's next write — so the claim is narrowed to the targeted mutators and deleteAll's contract is stated. DEVICE_FALSE_LOCKED_RETRY_DELAYS_MS and MASTER_LOCK_DEFECT_KEY were declared `internal` inside a `private companion object`, where internal is inert; they are private and now say so. Four tests, all on the read side the previous commit left untested: fail-fast when genuinely locked, no branding when a retry succeeds, recording when the schedule exhausts, and the end-to-end field shape — a wallet whose defect only a read ever observes still ends up off the defective gate. 432 tests, 0 failures.

…signing
MO-972: DashPay username creation fails outright on a HONOR PTP-N49
(MagicOS, Android 16). Signing an identity state transition dies
pre-broadcast with "Protocol error: Generic Error: User not
authenticated", one second after a successful biometric, twice. The
wallet reported it as "Keystore auth window expired".
There is no auth window. The wallet has run KeySecurityPolicy.DEVICE_BOUND
since dash-wallet 7e7d53485 precisely to be rid of the authentication
gate, and that worked — KEYS_ALIAS_DEVICE_BOUND carries no
setUserAuthenticationRequired. What it does still carry is
setUnlockedDeviceRequired, applied by ensureKeysKeyPair to every alias on
any device with a lock screen. Android reports a denial of THAT gate with
the same UserNotAuthenticatedException it uses for a closed auth window,
and this device's OEM Keystore denies it while KeyguardManager reports
the device unlocked — the defect the previous commits already handle for
the master alias (cf. Google Issue Tracker 506989112, confirmed by Google
on Fairphone 5/6; AOSP ties UNLOCKED_DEVICE_REQUIRED availability to how
the device was unlocked).
The SDK could not tell the two apart because it never tried:
KeystoreManager.decrypt returns early for identity aliases and never
reaches rethrowClassifyingDeviceLockedDenial, whose allowlist was
MASTER_ALIAS alone. So the bare exception arrived at KeystoreSigner,
which read it as a closed auth window, looked for a BiometricGate to
re-prompt with, found none wired, and completed the sign generically.
Classify it where it is unambiguous. The allowlist becomes
{MASTER_ALIAS, KEYS_ALIAS_DEVICE_BOUND} — both lock-bound and NOT
auth-gated, so the exception can only mean the lock gate.
KEYS_ALIAS_AUTH_GATED stays excluded, since it carries both gates and
only the auth one is fixable by prompting; the *_UNBOUND aliases stay
excluded because they carry neither and must not promise a retry no
unlock can satisfy.
Then give identity keys the master alias's degradation ladder, targeting
a new never-lock-bound KEYS_ALIAS_DEVICE_BOUND_UNBOUND. A denied read
retries, records the device, and propagates truthfully; once recorded,
new identity-key writes skip the lock-bound alias, and the first read
that gets through re-wraps the stranded blob through the existing
conditional migration, which now resolves the EFFECTIVE write alias
rather than blindly the policy alias. Dropping lock binding costs nothing
DEVICE_BOUND ever promised — hardware-backed where available,
non-exportable and never auth-gated all survive; only the incidental
"unlocked right now" hardening goes, on a device where that gate is
broken anyway. AUTH_GATED is deliberately NOT given an unbound variant:
its authentication gate is the real control, and no field evidence puts a
defective device on it.
Classifying also fixes two silent mistakes that only appear now the typed
exception exists. KeystoreDeviceLockedException is a
GeneralSecurityException, so retrievePrivateKey's recovery ladder and
tryFormerRsaRecovery would have swallowed a lock denial into "wrong key"
and returned null — a spurious re-derive for an intact key — and
probeOpensBlob would have reported that key strandable to the health
sheet. Both now treat it as what it is: retryable, and recoverable.
Nine tests. Two pin the classifier allowlist prompt-free; seven cover the
storage ladder in a new WalletStorageIdentityKeyLockDefectTest — fail
fast when genuinely locked, no branding when a retry succeeds, recording
when the schedule exhausts, writes moving off the gate, the end-to-end
field shape where only a read ever observes the defect, best-effort
re-wrap failure, and the no-spurious-re-derive guarantee. 441 tests, 0
failures, debug and release.
Device verification is still owed: emulators classify every denial as
genuinely locked, so the defective-OEM branch is unreachable there and
this needs the HONOR PTP-N49 with QA.

…flight Three findings from automated review of c574e29, all confirmed against the branch before fixing. BLOCKING — the opportunistic re-wrap could resurrect a deleted mnemonic. retrieveMnemonicUtf8 takes a DataStore snapshot, decrypts, and only then edits; it holds no mnemonic lock, so deleteMnemonic or a newer storeMnemonic can land in between. storeMnemonicUnbound wrote unconditionally, so the stale ciphertext went back in — restoring a seed the user had just destroyed, or clobbering a newer one. The read path now uses a compare-and-set edit that fires only while the entry still holds the exact encoded blob it read AND is still untagged (an untagged entry being the lock-bound MASTER_ALIAS default). Both races become a no-op, which is correct: the racing writer already wrote the state the user asked for. storeMnemonic's own writes stay unconditional — they ARE the user's intent. This is the migrateToPolicyAlias discipline applied to mnemonics. Cancellation during the re-wrap could strand decrypted seed bytes. The caller owns the plaintext buffer and scrubs it, but only ever receives it by return; rewrapMnemonicUnbound deliberately rethrows CancellationException, so a cancellation inside its suspending store.edit unwound past the return with nobody left to zero the buffer. The read now scrubs before propagating any throwable that prevents the return. Ordinary re-wrap failures never reach it — they stay best-effort inside the helper, exactly as before. ensureMasterKeyNotLockBlocked is now internal. The previous commit made it suspend (it consults the durable defect record, a suspending DataStore read) without acknowledging that WalletStorage is public and the JVM signature gains a Continuation — a source AND binary break. It is a createWallet preflight helper that was never meant to be API: the only production caller is PlatformWalletManager.createWallet, already suspend; the KotlinExampleApp and dash-wallet never call it. Narrowing it is itself breaking, hence the "!" — every other WalletStorage method the example app uses (retrieveMnemonic, storePrivateKey, hasPrivateKey, listEntryNames, listWalletIdsWithMnemonic) was already suspend and is untouched. Three regression tests, each verified to FAIL with its fix defeated and pass with it restored: delete-during-re-wrap, overwrite-during-re-wrap, and cancel-during-re-wrap. A test hook fires inside the unbound encrypt, which is precisely the window between the read's snapshot and the re-wrap's edit. 444 tests, 0 failures, debug and release.

Final validation — Phase 1 + Phase 2
The previously reported API compatibility, mnemonic buffer-scrubbing, and mnemonic compare-and-set race issues are fixed at the exact head. Two in-scope security issues remain: cancellation can strand decrypted identity-key bytes during opportunistic re-wrapping, and the persisted defect marker is portable across Android backups despite being treated as device-local evidence.

(existing thread: https://github.com/dashpay/platform/pull/4643#discussion_r3973936299)
On the recorded-defect path, `plain` contains the decrypted identity private key but is not returned until after both `isMasterKeyLockBindingDefectObserved()` and `migrateToPolicyAlias()` complete. Both operations can suspend. If cancellation, or another throwable that prevents the return, occurs during the defect-record read or migration edit, control unwinds past `retrievePrivateKey` and the caller never receives `plain`, so its cleanup cannot clear the buffer. `migrateToPolicyAlias` intentionally propagates cancellation, making this reachable during lifecycle cancellation or a signing timeout. Protect the entire check-and-migrate sequence with a catch that clears `plain` before rethrowing, while retaining the helper's best-effort behavior for ordinary migration failures.

🟡 Suggestion: Portable defect flag can downgrade lock binding after Android backup restore
MASTER_LOCK_DEFECT_KEY is stored as an ordinary DataStore boolean, but the surrounding logic treats it as evidence that the current device's Keystore implementation has demonstrated the false-lock defect and uses it to select never-lock-bound aliases for future mnemonic and identity-key writes. Android application-data backup can restore this preference to a different device while device-bound Keystore aliases are not restored or do not represent the source device's state. On a healthy destination device, the stale true value therefore causes new secrets to bypass the unlocked-device lock gate without that device ever demonstrating the defect. Bind the evidence to device-local Keystore state, or invalidate the marker when the expected device-local state is absent or mismatched; do not trust the portable preference alone to authorize the downgrade.

Fixed in 728ae41. Good catch — the record really was portable while the authority it carries is device-specific.
The decision is now two-part and requires both halves: the DataStore flag says the defect was seen, and the new KeystoreManager.hasUnboundMasterKey() says it was seen on this device. Keystore keys are non-exportable and never restored, so requiring MASTER_ALIAS_UNBOUND to exist locally pins the downgrade to the handset that earned it.
The write-heal path already provisions that alias as a side effect of encrypting under it. The read-side recorder had no plaintext to encrypt, so it now creates the key explicitly (the ensureMasterKeyNotLockBlocked probe-encrypt idiom) and records nothing if that fails.
On your "or invalidate the marker" alternative: we chose not to clear it. isMasterKeyLockBindingDefectObserved is a read, and writing from a read path is precisely what produced the resurrection race in your other finding. An unbelieved flag is inert, so leaving it costs nothing.
For the record on exposure — neither current consumer could reach this: dash-wallet sets allowBackup=false, fullBackupContent=false and its data_extraction_rules.xml excludes root, file, database, sharedpref and external from both <cloud-backup> and <device-transfer>; KotlinExampleApp sets allowBackup=false. We fixed it anyway because this SDK publishes to Maven Central and a third-party host is bound by neither.
Regression test shouldIgnoreADefectFlagWithoutItsDeviceLocalKeystoreWitness models the restore (flag kept, Keystore key gone) and asserts writes return to the lock-bound alias; verified to fail with the witness gate removed.

Still applies (re-reviewed at 728ae411): The write and preflight paths now require the device-local witness, but the read-side re-wrap at line 619 still trusts the portable flag alone and can itself create that witness. The original backup-restore downgrade remains possible through this path.
There was a problem hiding this comment.
Right again — fixed in 0e7c28f. CodeRabbit flagged the same line independently.
retrieveMnemonicUtf8 was the one remaining consumer reading MASTER_LOCK_DEFECT_KEY straight off its snapshot instead of going through isMasterKeyLockBindingDefectObserved(). And your second sentence is the part that made it more than a missed refactor: the re-wrap encrypts under MASTER_ALIAS_UNBOUND, which provisions that alias, so a restored flag reaching that line would have minted the very evidence the gate checks it against. The downgrade would have authorized itself.
The witness is now required before the re-wrap runs, so it can no longer bootstrap. hasUnboundMasterKey() is a non-suspending Keystore presence check, so the hot resolver path still pays no second DataStore read — which is why it is checked there rather than by calling the suspending accessor.
Regression test shouldNotLetARestoredFlagMintItsOwnWitnessViaTheRewrap restores the flag with the key absent and asserts zero unbound encrypts; verified to fail with the gate removed.
There was a problem hiding this comment.
Resolved (re-reviewed at 0e7c28fe): The defect decision now requires both the DataStore flag and the device-local MASTER_ALIAS_UNBOUND Keystore witness. The re-wrap path also checks that witness before provisioning the fallback key, so a restored flag cannot bootstrap its own authorization.
…keys Two more findings from automated review of c1ef36c. The durable defect record was trusted on its own, and it is portable. MASTER_LOCK_DEFECT_KEY is an ordinary DataStore boolean, but it is what authorizes writing secrets without the unlocked-device gate. A host app permitting Android backup or device-to-device transfer could carry that preference to a different handset, where — Keystore keys being neither backed up nor restored — a healthy device would inherit the downgrade having never demonstrated the defect. Neither known consumer is exposed (dash-wallet sets allowBackup=false, fullBackupContent=false and excludes every domain from both cloud-backup and device-transfer; KotlinExampleApp sets allowBackup=false), but this SDK ships to Maven Central and a third-party host is not bound by either. The decision is now two-part and needs BOTH halves: the flag says the defect was seen, and KeystoreManager.hasUnboundMasterKey() says it was seen HERE. A Keystore key cannot travel, so requiring MASTER_ALIAS_UNBOUND to exist locally pins the downgrade to the device that earned it. The write-heal path already provisions that alias; the read-side recorder holds no plaintext to encrypt, so it now creates the key explicitly (the ensureMasterKeyNotLockBlocked probe-encrypt idiom) and records nothing if that fails. A flag arriving without its key is simply not believed — and deliberately not cleared, because writing from a read path is what the re-wrap races taught us to avoid, and an inert flag costs nothing. migrateToPolicyAlias rethrew CancellationException without scrubbing. Same defect class as the mnemonic re-wrap fixed in c1ef36c, on the identity-key side — fixing only half the pattern was the oversight. Every caller hands the helper the plaintext it is about to return, so a cancellation unwinds past that return with nobody left to zero it. Scrubbing inside the helper covers all three callers at once: the legacy migration, the recovery ladder, and the defective-gate re-wrap. Two regression tests, each verified to FAIL with its fix defeated: shouldIgnoreADefectFlagWithoutItsDeviceLocalKeystoreWitness models the restore (flag kept, Keystore key gone) and asserts writes return to the lock-bound alias; shouldScrubIdentityKeyPlaintextWhenCancelledDuringMigration cancels inside the unbound identity encrypt and asserts the decrypted key is zeroed. One existing expectation updated — the denied read now performs one extra unbound encrypt to provision the witness, and still cannot re-wrap the blob because it never obtained the plaintext. 446 tests, 0 failures, debug and release.

…r mismatched blobs Two findings on 728ae41, the first raised independently by both reviewers. The read-path re-wrap was the one place still trusting the portable flag alone. Every other consumer went through isMasterKeyLockBindingDefectObserved(), which now demands the device-local witness, but retrieveMnemonicUtf8 read MASTER_LOCK_DEFECT_KEY straight off its snapshot. That mattered more than a missed refactor: the re-wrap encrypts under MASTER_ALIAS_UNBOUND, which PROVISIONS that alias — so a restored flag reaching this line would mint the very evidence the gate checks it against, and the downgrade would authorize itself on a healthy device. The witness is now required before the re-wrap runs, so it can no longer bootstrap. It stays a non-suspending Keystore presence check, so the hot resolver path still pays no second DataStore read. probeOpensBlob returned true unconditionally for a device-locked denial. The previous commit justified that by arguing such a denial "proves nothing about ownership either way" — which is precisely the argument for honouring unaeProvesRecoverable, not for overriding it. Like UNAE, a device-locked denial is thrown at cipher.init BEFORE the ciphertext is examined, so it reports the gate, not the key. Where the caller has independent proof of ownership (stored fingerprint matches the recorded alias) the blob really is intact behind a shut gate; where it does not, returning true reported a blob belonging to a REPLACED key as healthy and suppressed the re-derive the key-health sheet exists to offer. It now obeys the same flag as every other pre-ciphertext throw. Two regression tests, each verified to FAIL with its fix defeated: shouldNotLetARestoredFlagMintItsOwnWitnessViaTheRewrap asserts the restored flag performs zero unbound encrypts, and shouldNotReportALockDeniedBlobRecoverableWhenTheFingerprintMismatches rotates the alias fingerprint under a lock-denied read. 448 tests, 0 failures, debug and release.

Pass KEYS_ALIAS ownership evidence to the legacy RSA probe. The fallback currently calls probeOpensBlob { keystore.decryptLegacyRsaKeysBlob(blob) } with unaeProvesRecoverable = true. A locked KEYS_ALIAS can fail at cipher.init before RSA ownership is checked. After key rotation, this reports the old blob as recoverable and can suppress repair. Compare the stored fingerprint with keystore.keysAliasFingerprintOrNull(KeystoreManager.KEYS_ALIAS) and pass that result to the fallback. A lock denial should be recoverable only when this comparison proves KEYS_ALIAS ownership.

Final validation — Phase 2 only (queue backlog)
The PR correctly separates device-lock denials from authentication-window failures, binds fallback authorization to device-local Keystore evidence, and fixes the previously identified re-wrap, cancellation, and API-compatibility issues. One recovery-path inconsistency remains: the legacy RSA fallback still treats every device-lock denial as proof that the legacy blob is recoverable, even when the stored blob fingerprint does not establish ownership by the current legacy key.

packages/kotlin-sdk/sdk/src/main/kotlin/org/dashfoundation/dashsdk/security/WalletStorage.kt:1448-1449
The legacy RSA fallback calls probeOpensBlob without an ownership argument, so unaeProvesRecoverable defaults to true. decryptLegacyRsaKeysBlob can throw KeystoreDeviceLockedException during cipher initialization before the ciphertext is checked. Consequently, when the legacy KEYS_ALIAS key has been replaced or regenerated, a locked denial can make an unrelated or stale blob appear recoverable and suppress the key-health repair flow. Derive this argument from the stored fingerprint compared with keystore.keysAliasFingerprintOrNull(KeystoreManager.KEYS_ALIAS), while preserving the intended compatibility behavior for blobs that predate fingerprint recording.

Google confirmed the same defect on Fairphone 5/6 (Issue Tracker 506989112); AOSP tiesUNLOCKED_DEVICE_REQUIREDavailability to how the device was unlocked (class 1/2 biometrics vs class 3/LSKF). We see it on HONOR PTP-N49 (MagicOS, Android 16).The SDK stamps that gate on every alias on any device with a lock screen, so the defect lands twice:
storeMnemonic's master-alias encrypt is denied. The bounded retry was built for a transient Keystore2 blip and cannot outwait a defect that persists for the unlock session, so creation failed unfixably.Protocol error: Generic Error: User not authenticated, one second after a successful biometric, reproducibly. The wallet reported it as "Keystore auth window expired" — but there is no auth window: the wallet has runKeySecurityPolicy.DEVICE_BOUNDsince dash-wallet7e7d53485precisely to be rid of the authentication gate, and that works.KEYS_ALIAS_DEVICE_BOUNDstill carries the lock gate, and Android reports both denials with the identicalUserNotAuthenticatedException. The SDK never disambiguated them, so the failure was unreadable in the field for weeks.What was done?
Tell the two gates apart
KeystoreManager.decryptreturned early for identity aliases and never reachedrethrowClassifyingDeviceLockedDenial, whose allowlist wasMASTER_ALIASalone. The allowlist is nowUNAMBIGUOUS_LOCK_BOUND_ALIASES = {MASTER_ALIAS, KEYS_ALIAS_DEVICE_BOUND}— both lock-bound and not auth-gated, so the exception can only mean the lock gate.KEYS_ALIAS_AUTH_GATEDstays excluded: it carries both gates, and only the auth reading is fixable by prompting. Classifying it would strand theBiometricGateprompt-and-retry contract.*_UNBOUNDaliases stay excluded: neither gate, so a denial there is not a lock denial and must not promise a retry no unlock can satisfy.Degrade off the broken gate, per device, on evidence
Two never-lock-bound aliases, provisioned lazily and only on a device that demonstrated the defect —
MASTER_ALIAS_UNBOUND(AES) andKEYS_ALIAS_DEVICE_BOUND_UNBOUND(RSA). Both bypass the lock-screen ladder ingenerateAesKey/ensureKeysKeyPairunconditionally.The ladder itself is shared by every lock-bound operation (
WalletStorage.retryingFalseLockedDenial): genuinely-locked fails fast, a transient blip is retried, and only a denial outlasting the whole schedule counts as the defect and is recorded durably inMASTER_LOCK_DEFECT_KEY.storeMnemonicdegrades in place (it holds the plaintext) and records atomically with the healed blob. Identity writes route throughencryptIdentityKeyOffDefectiveGate.recordLockBindingDefectFromDeniedRead). That record is load-bearing: it arms the opportunistic re-wrap, which is the only route on a wallet whose blob predates the degradation — nothing writes that secret again, so the write ladder never runs.mnemonicalias.<walletIdHex>,privkeyalias.<pubkeyHex>) route reads, so nothing is ever deleted or re-keyed and healthy devices never provision the new aliases.AUTH_GATEDdeliberately gets no unbound variant: its authentication gate is the real control, and no field evidence puts a defective device on it.Three latent bugs the typed exception exposed
KeystoreDeviceLockedExceptionis aGeneralSecurityException, so once identity denials became typed, existing broad catches would have misread them:retrievePrivateKey's recovery ladder andtryFormerRsaRecoverywould have absorbed a lock denial as "wrong key" →null→ a spurious re-derive of an intact key.probeOpensBlobwould have reported that key strandable to the key-health sheet.All three now treat it as retryable and recoverable.
KeystoreSignerdocuments why the typed exception deliberately bypasses theBiometricGate: the gate tracks device lock state, not authentication recency, so a prompt would burn a user interaction and fail identically.Security note
Dropping lock binding costs nothing
DEVICE_BOUNDever promised — hardware-backed where the device provides it, non-exportable, and never auth-gated all survive. Only the incidental "device unlocked right now" hardening is given up, on a device where that gate is broken anyway, and only after that device proves it.How Has This Been Tested?
444 tests, 0 failures, debug and release variants (428 on
v4.2-dev). Counts read fromsdk/build/test-results/**/TEST-*.xml— Gradle only prints a count on failure.WalletStorageDeviceLockedRetryTest(17 → 24) — the master-alias ladder: createWallet pre-check, retry/fail-fast, degradation and its failure path, buffer scrubbing; new: the read side (fail fast when genuinely locked, no branding when a retry succeeds, recording on exhaustion, and the field shape where only a read ever observes the defect); and the three re-wrap races from review — delete-during-re-wrap, overwrite-during-re-wrap, cancel-during-re-wrap — each verified to FAIL with its fix defeated.WalletStorageIdentityKeyLockDefectTest(new, 7) — the identity-key ladder end to end, including writes moving off the gate, best-effort re-wrap failure, and the no-spurious-re-derive guarantee.KeystoreDeviceLockedDenialTest(9 → 11) — pins the classifier allowlist prompt-free:KEYS_ALIAS_DEVICE_BOUNDmaps,KEYS_ALIAS_AUTH_GATEDand both*_UNBOUNDaliases do not.Device verification is still owed. Emulators cannot reproduce this class of defect — AOSP classifies every denial as genuinely locked, so the defective-OEM branch is unreachable. Needs the HONOR PTP-N49 (with QA). Expected outcome: username creation succeeds, or fails with an explicit message naming the alias and the
KeyguardManagerstate — never "auth window expired" again.Breaking Changes
Yes — one, and an earlier revision of this body wrongly said "None".
WalletStorage.ensureMasterKeyNotLockBlockedwasfun; it is nowinternal suspend fun. It had to becomesuspend(the new early return reads the durable defect record from DataStore), and on a public class that changes both the source signature and the JVM signature. Rather than keep a public method whose non-suspending form cannot consult that record — and would therefore reproduce the spurious preflight failure this PR removes — it is narrowed tointernal, which is the visibility it should always have had: it is acreateWalletpreflight helper.Impact in practice is nil: the only production caller is
PlatformWalletManager.createWallet, alreadysuspend. Neither KotlinExampleApp nor dash-wallet calls it. Every otherWalletStoragemethod the example app uses (retrieveMnemonic,storePrivateKey,hasPrivateKey,listEntryNames,listWalletIdsWithMnemonic) was alreadysuspendand is unchanged.Everything else is additive: the new aliases are lazily provisioned only on a device that demonstrates the defect, healthy devices are byte-for-byte unaffected, nothing is deleted or re-keyed, and pre-existing blobs stay readable under their recorded alias.
