1. Critical HMAC Signing Flaw in Dispatch Contract Allows Payload Tampering and Replay Attacks

A critical cryptographic vulnerability has been identified in the `dispatch_contract.py` module, where the HMAC envelope signing mechanism fails to incorporate the `payload` field into its canonical signing input. The flaw, located at lines 107–123 in the `_sign_envelope_payload` function, signs only metadata fields—`a...

2. MQTT Signature Verification Exposes Timing Side-Channel Vulnerability in secure_mqtt.cpp

A high-severity timing side-channel vulnerability has been identified in the MQTT envelope signature verification path, potentially allowing attackers to forge authentication tokens through careful measurement of response times. The flaw, classified as finding N2 with high severity, exists in `secure_mqtt.cpp:65` where...
