The format --- +## [1.9.30] - 2025-12-18 + +### Added +- Added constant-time scalar multiplication (`mulCT`) for elliptic curve points. +- Added comprehensive unit tests for constant-time scalar multiplication, including generator and non-generator points, negative scalars, and edge cases. +- Expanded test coverage across Point, ECDSA, PublicKey, and PrivateKey to validate correctness and edge-case behavior. + +### Changed +- Updated ECDSA signing to use constant-time scalar multiplication internally. +- Refactored elliptic curve scalar multiplication internals to improve timing consistency without changing public APIs. + +### Fixed +- Fixed incorrect handling of negative scalars during BigInt conversion in scalar multiplication. +- Corrected discrepancies between constant-time and variable-time scalar multiplication results. +- Ensured scalar multiplication by zero and point-at-infinity cases behave correctly and consistently. + +### Security +- Reduced timing side-channel risk in elliptic curve scalar multiplication paths by introducing constant-time algorithms (TOB-4). + +--- + ## [1.9.29] - 2025-12-12 ### Added - Introduced constantTimeEquals() utility for timing-safe byte comparisons. diff --git a/benchmarks/ecc-scalar-bench.js b/benchmarks/ecc-scalar-bench.js new file mode 100644 index 00000000..c8e87f0b --- /dev/null +++ b/benchmarks/ecc-scalar-bench.js @@ -0,0 +1,66 @@ +import { runBenchmark } from './lib/benchmark-runner.js' + +import Curve from '../dist/esm/src/primitives/Curve.js' +import BigNumber from '../dist/esm/src/primitives/BigNumber.js' +import * as ECDSA from '../dist/esm/src/primitives/ECDSA.js' + +const curve = new Curve() + +const scalar = new BigNumber( + '1e5edd45de6d22deebef4596b80444ffcc29143839c1dce18db470e25b4be7b5', + 16 +) + +const msg = new BigNumber('deadbeefcafebabe', 16) + +const priv = new BigNumber( + '8a2f85e08360a04c8a36b7c22c5e9e9a0d3bcf2f95c97db2b8bd90fc5f5ff66a', + 16 +) + +const pub = curve.g.mul(priv) + +async function main () { + const options = { + minSampleMs: 400, + samples: 8 + } + + await runBenchmark( + 'Point.mul (WNAF)', + () => { + curve.g.mul(scalar) + }, + options + ) + + await runBenchmark( + 'Point.mulCT (constant-time)', + () => { + curve.g.mulCT(scalar) + }, + options + ) + + await runBenchmark( + 'ECDSA.sign', + () => { + ECDSA.sign(msg, priv) + }, + options + ) + + await runBenchmark( + 'ECDSA.verify', + () => { + const sig = ECDSA.sign(msg, priv) + ECDSA.verify(msg, sig, pub) + }, + options + ) +} + +main().catch((err) => { + console.error(err) + process.exit(1) +}) diff --git a/package-lock.json b/package-lock.json index 8115c87b..9d7bb0c2 100644 --- a/package-lock.json +++ b/package-lock.json @@ -1,12 +1,12 @@ { "name": "@bsv/sdk", - "version": "1.9.29", + "version": "1.9.30", "lockfileVersion": 3, "requires": true, "packages": { "": { "name": "@bsv/sdk", - "version": "1.9.29", + "version": "1.9.30", "license": "SEE LICENSE IN LICENSE.txt", "devDependencies": { "@eslint/js": "^9.39.1", diff --git a/package.json b/package.json index 05006cb7..46b89a52 100644 --- a/package.json +++ b/package.json @@ -1,6 +1,6 @@ { "name": "@bsv/sdk", - "version": "1.9.29", + "version": "1.9.30", "type": "module", "description": "BSV Blockchain Software Development Kit", "main": "dist/cjs/mod.js", diff --git a/src/primitives/ECDSA.ts b/src/primitives/ECDSA.ts index 2b398a98..4c391877 100644 --- a/src/primitives/ECDSA.ts +++ b/src/primitives/ECDSA.ts @@ -39,6 +39,15 @@ function truncateToN ( } } +function bnToBigInt (bn: BigNumber): bigint { + const bytes = bn.toArray('be') + let x = 0n + for (let i = 0; i < bytes.length; i++) { + x = (x << 8n) | BigInt(bytes[i]) + } + return x +} + const curve = new Curve() const bytes = curve.n.byteLength() const ns1 = curve.n.subn(1) @@ -65,18 +74,15 @@ export const sign = ( forceLowS: boolean = false, customK?: BigNumber | ((iter: number) => BigNumber) ): Signature => { - // —— prepare inputs ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────── msg = truncateToN(msg) - const msgBig = BigInt('0x' + msg.toString(16)) - const keyBig = BigInt('0x' + key.toString(16)) + const msgBig = bnToBigInt(msg) + const keyBig = bnToBigInt(key) - // DRBG seeding identical to previous implementation const bkey = key.toArray('be', bytes) const nonce = msg.toArray('be', bytes) const drbg = new DRBG(bkey, nonce) for (let iter = 0; ; iter++) { - // —— k generation & basic validity checks ─────────────────────────────── let kBN = typeof customK === 'function' ?
