Shadowbroker 1d7fa5185a feat(infonet): private gate + DM hashchain spool with hardened propagation (#326)
Private gate messages and offline DMs now ride the Infonet hashchain
as ciphertext-only events, replicated across nodes via private
transports (Tor onion / RNS / loopback) and decrypted only by parties
holding the gate or recipient keys.

Hashchain core (mesh_hashchain.py)
----------------------------------

* New ``append_private_gate_message`` and ``append_private_dm_message``
  append paths with full signature verification, public-key binding,
  revocation check, and replay protection in a dedicated sequence
  domain (so a gate post does not consume the author's public broadcast
  sequence, and a DM cannot replay-block a public message at sequence=1).
* Fork validation and full-chain validation now accept the gate
  signature compatibility variants — older signatures that canonicalize
  with/without epoch or reply_to still verify, so a re-sync from an
  older peer doesn't reject still-valid history.
* DM hashchain spool: capped at 2 active sealed offline DMs per
  recipient mailbox, plus a per-(sender, recipient) cap so one prolific
  sender can't consume both slots. 1-hour TTL on the cap counter.
  Spool intentionally small — it's an offline bootstrap channel,
  not a persistent mailbox.
* Rebuild-state preserves the gate sequence domain across reloads so
  a chain reload doesn't accidentally let an old gate sequence
  replay-collide on next append.

Schema enforcement (mesh_schema.py)
-----------------------------------

* Private gate + DM payloads have closed allowlists of fields.
  Plaintext keys (``message``, ``plaintext``, ``_local_plaintext``,
  ``_local_reply_to``) are explicit rejection-bait — they raise before
  the event ever touches the chain.
* DM ciphertext + nonce must look like base64-ish sealed bytes;
  obvious base64-encoded plaintext shapes are rejected.
* ``transport_lock`` required: DM hashchain spool requires
  ``private_strong``; gate accepts ``private``/``private_strong``/
  ``rns``/``onion``.

Defense-in-depth at the network layer (main.py + mesh_public.py)
----------------------------------------------------------------

* ``_infonet_sync_response_events`` now silently redacts private events
  (gate_message + dm_message) unless the request looks like a loopback /
  onion / RNS / private transport caller. If an operator accidentally
  exposes :8000 to the public internet, an external puller gets
  public events only — never ciphertext.
* ``_sync_from_peer`` raises ``PeerSyncRateLimited`` for 429 (handled
  as 4-tuple return with retry_after_s) and ``PeerSyncHTTPError`` for
  other non-200 statuses (handled by ``_run_public_sync_cycle`` to
  honor server cooldown hints even outside the 429 path).

DM relay hydration (main.py)
-----------------------------

* New ``_hydrate_dm_relay_from_chain``: when accepted dm_message chain
  events arrive on a node, they get deposited into the local DM relay
  store with a deterministic sender_token_hash so re-sync of the same
  event is idempotent. Recipients see the ciphertext as a normal DM
  on their next poll and decrypt with their existing recipient key.

Other surfaces
--------------

* meshnode.bat / meshnode.sh now set ``MESH_INFONET_ALLOW_CLEARNET_SYNC=
  false`` and the participant runtime flags by default so a freshly
  spun-up node defaults to private-only sync.
* InfonetTerminal/InfonetShell.tsx adds a gate directory renderer for
  the new private-gate workflow.
* docker-compose.relay.yml binds the relay backend to 127.0.0.1:8000
  only; Tor's hidden service forwards onion traffic into 127.0.0.1.
  Public clearnet :8000 stays off the network edge.

Tests
-----

* 7 new tests in test_private_gate_hashchain.py + test_private_dm_
  hashchain.py covering: gate fork accepts ciphertext propagation,
  gate fork rejects plaintext, append rejects plaintext before
  normalize, append requires private_strong, append rejects
  non-sealed ciphertext shape, DM spool 2-per-recipient + 1-per-pair
  cap, DM hydration delivers to poll/claim.
* Updated test_mesh_node_bootstrap_runtime.py covers 429 backoff via
  PeerSyncRateLimited 4-tuple AND PeerSyncHTTPError exception.
* Updated test_s14b_public_sync_gate_filter.py + test_s9b_gate_store_
  hydration.py + test_gate_write_cutover.py cover the new private
  redaction on public sync responses.
* test_private_gate_hashchain.py + test_private_dm_hashchain.py:
  10 passed locally.
* Combined mesh-relevant suite (the 5 modified existing tests +
  2 new): 17 passed.

BigBodyCobain 31ebcb5cd9 Infonet sync: honor HTTP 429 Retry-After + exponential backoff
Fixes the retry-storm that's been keeping the local node 429'd out of
the seed peer (the diagnosis we ran earlier in the session). Pre-fix:

  1. Sync hits the seed peer, gets HTTP 429 (Too Many Requests)
  2. _peer_sync_response stringifies the status into a ValueError
  3. _sync_from_peer catches it, error becomes the str() of the exc
  4. _run_public_sync_cycle calls finish_sync(error=..., failure_backoff_s=60)
  5. next_sync_due_at = now + 60s
  6. After 60s, sync runs again, hits same upstream that hasn't reset
     its rate-limit bucket, 429 again. Loop indefinitely.

Net effect: a node that hit one transient 429 would hammer the seed
every 60s forever, keeping the bucket full and never recovering. We
saw this in the live status dump: consecutive_failures=49,
last_sync_ok_at=0, retry storm sustained over the entire uptime.

What changed
------------
services/mesh/mesh_infonet_sync_support.py

  * New typed exception PeerSyncRateLimited carries the parsed
    Retry-After value out of the HTTP layer instead of stringifying
    everything into a generic ValueError.

  * New parse_retry_after_header() handles both RFC 7231 §7.1.3
    forms (delay-seconds and HTTP-date). Clamped at 1 hour so a
    hostile peer can't silence us for days.

  * New _failure_backoff_seconds() helper computes the next delay
    as max(exponential, retry_after_s). Schedule with default
    base=60s, cap=1800s:

      failure 1 -> 60s     (preserves pre-fix for transient blips)
      failure 2 -> 120s
      failure 3 -> 240s
      failure 4 -> 480s
      failure 5 -> 960s
      failure 6+ -> 1800s  (capped at 30 min)

    cap_s=0 explicitly disables exponential entirely — operators
    who want pure-Retry-After behavior have that option.

  * finish_sync now accepts retry_after_s and failure_backoff_cap_s
    kwargs. Backward-compatible: existing callers that don't pass
    retry_after_s get the same first-failure delay as before (the
    base value), only repeat failures grow.

main.py

  * _peer_sync_response detects 429 specifically, parses the
    Retry-After header, raises PeerSyncRateLimited(retry_after_s=N).
    Includes the response body prefix in the message so the
    operator's last_error finally shows something useful.

  * _sync_from_peer extended to return (ok, error, forked,
    retry_after_s) — the 4th tuple element is non-zero only when
    the upstream sent a parseable Retry-After. Existing call shape
    preserved: the lone caller in _run_public_sync_cycle was
    updated in the same commit.

  * _run_public_sync_cycle forwards retry_after_s into finish_sync.

Tests
-----
backend/tests/mesh/test_infonet_sync_429_backoff.py — 17 new tests:

  TestParseRetryAfter (7):
    - integer seconds form
    - HTTP-date form (computed as seconds-from-now)
    - HTTP-date in the past returns 0
    - empty / whitespace returns 0
    - malformed returns 0
    - clamps to 1 hour (hostile-peer cap)
    - negative returns 0

  TestFailureBackoffSeconds (5):
    - exponential growth schedule pins each level
    - retry_after wins when larger than exponential
    - exponential wins when larger than retry_after
    - cap_s=0 disables exponential entirely
    - zero inputs return zero

  TestFinishSyncBackoff (5):
    - first failure uses base unchanged (pre-fix back-compat)
    - consecutive_failures actually grow the delay
    - retry_after honored at low failure count
    - success resets consecutive_failures
    - last_error carries the HTTP status / Retry-After detail

All 24 existing sync-support / status-gate tests still pass. Other
failures in tests/mesh/ are pre-existing on origin/main and unrelated
to this change (verified by running the same tests against the
user's main worktree without these edits).

What the operator sees after this lands + a docker rebuild
----------------------------------------------------------
With the live 429 storm we diagnosed:

  Pre-fix: consecutive_failures keeps climbing 1/min forever,
           last_error empty or generic
  Post-fix: consecutive_failures grows, next_sync_due_at backs off
           exponentially (max 30 min), last_error explicitly carries
           "HTTP 429 from <peer> (retry_after=Ns): <body>" so the
           operator can see what's actually wrong. Once the upstream
           bucket drains and a sync succeeds, consecutive_failures
           resets to 0 and the schedule returns to the normal 300s
           interval.

BigBodyCobain 401f114e4f DM mailbox: outbound replication + receiving endpoint
Second commit on this branch (first added the per-sender cap + accept_replica
primitive). This commit wires the actual cross-node propagation:

Outbound (sender side)
----------------------
* New ``DMRelay._replicate_envelope_to_peers_async()`` — fire-and-forget
  thread that POSTs the envelope to every authenticated relay peer via
  the same per-peer HMAC pattern gate-message replication uses (#256
  ``X-Peer-Url`` + ``X-Peer-HMAC`` headers, ``resolve_peer_key_for_url``).
* ``deposit()`` now calls the replication helper after a successful
  local accept. Per-peer errors are swallowed — slow Tor peers must not
  block the sender's UX, and the recipient polling from a healthy peer
  works fine even if some peers are down.
* Metrics: dm_replication_push_ok / _rejected / _error.

Inbound (receiving side)
------------------------
* New endpoint ``POST /api/mesh/dm/replicate-envelope`` in
  routers/mesh_peer_sync.py.
* Same HMAC auth gate (``_verify_peer_push_hmac``) as the existing
  infonet/gate peer-push endpoints. Unauthenticated requests get 403.
* Body cap of 64 KB (DM envelope is bounded by MESH_DM_MAX_MSG_BYTES).
* Calls DMRelay.accept_replica which enforces the per-sender cap as a
  network rule — hostile sender's relay can hold extras locally but
  honest peers reject them on inbound replication.

End-to-end flow now works
-------------------------
  1. Alice's node accepts a deposit to Bob's mailbox (local cap check).
  2. Alice's node spawns a background thread that POSTs the envelope
     to MESH_RELAY_PEERS with per-peer HMAC.
  3. Each peer's /api/mesh/dm/replicate-envelope verifies the HMAC and
     calls accept_replica, which re-enforces the per-sender cap.
  4. Bob (offline at the time of send) eventually logs into ANY node
     in MESH_RELAY_PEERS, his existing pollDmMailboxes pulls from
     the local mailbox there, finds Alice's envelope, decrypts.

Tests
-----
backend/tests/test_dm_replicate_envelope_endpoint.py — 4 tests:

  TestReplicateEndpointAuth:
    - rejects requests without peer HMAC (403)
    - rejects requests with WRONG peer HMAC (403) — confirms the
      HMAC is actually verified, not just present
    - rejects oversize bodies (>64 KB) with 400/413

  TestReplicateEndpointRegistered:
    - static check that POST /api/mesh/dm/replicate-envelope is
      registered on app.routes — catches future refactor that
      drops the router include

All 38 backend tests touching the new code paths still pass:
  test_dm_relay_per_sender_cap.py (14)
  test_dm_replicate_envelope_endpoint.py (4)
  test_no_new_duplicate_routes.py (1) — new route is unique
  test_per_peer_secret_resolver.py (19) — HMAC primitive unaffected

What's still ahead (PR-3+)
--------------------------
* ack propagation: when recipient pulls a message on node X, peers Y/Z
  should prune their copies to free the sender's quota network-wide.
  Without this, the sender's quota frees only on the node the recipient
  actually polled — other peers still see N pending until TTL expiry.
  Workable but suboptimal. PR-3 will add a /api/mesh/dm/ack endpoint
  with the same HMAC pattern.
* recipient pull-from-peers: today the recipient's poll only hits
  their own node's relay. If they log into a peer they didn't deposit
  with, they need a way to fetch envelopes from other peers in
  MESH_RELAY_PEERS. Today this works as long as the recipient's
  current node is one of the peers Alice's node pushed to — which is
  true in a fully-meshed deployment but not guaranteed for partial
  meshes. PR-4 if telemetry shows this matters.

BigBodyCobain 79b39e8985 DM mailbox: per-(sender, recipient) anti-spam cap + replication primitives
Foundation work for cross-node DM mailbox replication. Adds the network
rule that makes the replication safe to ship next, plus the primitives
the outbound replication PR will call.

The rule
--------
A single sender can have at most N UNACKED messages parked in a single
recipient's mailbox at any one time. Default N=2, tunable via
``MESH_DM_PENDING_PER_SENDER_LIMIT``. Once the recipient pulls (acks) a
message, the sender's quota for that (sender, recipient) pair frees up.

Network rule, not local rule
----------------------------
The cap is enforced TWICE:

  1. ``DMRelay.deposit(...)`` — local check on the sender's own node.
     Refuses to spool the (N+1)th message before it can be replicated.

  2. ``DMRelay.accept_replica(...)`` — replication-acceptance check on
     every receiving peer. Refuses to accept an inbound replica that
     would put the local mailbox over the cap.

The second half is what makes the rule a NETWORK rule. A hostile sender
could patch out the deposit check on their own relay and continue to
spool extras locally — but those extras can never propagate, because
every honest peer enforces the same cap on the way in. A recipient who
polls from honest peers therefore never sees more than N pending from
any one sender, regardless of how many spam attempts the hostile
sender's relay accepted.

New API surface on ``DMRelay``
------------------------------
  _per_sender_pending_limit()       — reads MESH_DM_PENDING_PER_SENDER_LIMIT
  _per_sender_pending_count(...)    — counts unacked from a sender for a mailbox
  accept_replica(envelope=...)      — peer-push receive entry point
  envelope_for_replication(...)     — helper to extract a wire-form envelope

``accept_replica`` is idempotent on duplicate ``msg_id`` (replication
round-trips and multi-path delivery don't double-spool).

``envelope_for_replication`` exposes the exact shape ``accept_replica``
expects, so the follow-up PR (outbound replication wiring) just has to
fetch the envelope and POST it to authenticated peer URLs with the
existing per-peer HMAC pattern from #256.

Why this is PR-1 of two
-----------------------
The full cross-node mailbox replication needs three pieces:

  A. cap enforcement on deposit (in this PR)
  B. cap enforcement on replica acceptance (in this PR)
  C. outbound: push envelope to MESH_RELAY_PEERS after deposit (NEXT PR)

(A) + (B) shipped together close the cap-bypass attack surface BEFORE
(C) introduces the actual cross-node propagation. Shipping them in the
other order would briefly let extras propagate during the window between
"outbound push lands" and "accept_replica cap lands."

Tests
-----
backend/tests/test_dm_relay_per_sender_cap.py — 14 tests:

  TestDepositCap:
    - first 2 deposits succeed (UX baseline)
    - 3rd from same sender rejected with friendly message
    - different senders have independent quotas
    - different recipients have independent quotas
    - ack frees the quota (after recipient pulls, sender can deposit again)
    - cap is env-tunable

  TestAcceptReplicaCap:
    - replica accepted under cap
    - idempotent on duplicate msg_id (no double-spool, no rejection)
    - rejected at cap with structured ``cap_violation`` marker so
      sender's relay can stop retrying
    - per-sender, not per-mailbox: different sender_block_ref passes
      even when another sender at the same mailbox is capped
    - malformed envelope shapes rejected without crash

  TestEnvelopeForReplication:
    - returns the envelope for stored messages
    - returns None for unknown msg_id
    - round-trips through accept_replica end-to-end (proves the wire
      shape matches across the two sides)
2026-05-22 19:18:01 -06:00
Shadowbroker 2e14e75a0e Fix #256: per-peer HMAC secrets defeat cross-peer impersonation (#281)
Before this change, every peer-push HMAC was derived from the single
fleet-shared MESH_PEER_PUSH_SECRET. The receiver could prove "this
request was signed by someone who knows the fleet secret" but it could
NOT prove which peer signed it. Any peer that knew the global secret
could compute the expected HMAC for any other peer URL and forge a
push pretending to be that peer.

Fix: introduce MESH_PEER_SECRETS, an optional comma-separated
url=secret map. When a peer URL appears in the map, only the listed
per-peer secret is accepted for it -- the global secret is ignored for
that specific URL. Peer A no longer knows peer B's secret, so peer A
cannot forge a push claiming to be peer B.

The new helper resolve_peer_key_for_url() in mesh_crypto.py wraps the
lookup and is called from every existing peer-push call site:

- backend/auth.py:_verify_peer_push_hmac (receiver)
- backend/main.py:_http_peer_push_loop (Infonet event push)
- backend/main.py:_http_gate_pull_loop (gate event pull)
- backend/main.py:_http_gate_push_loop (gate event push)
- backend/services/mesh/mesh_router.py (two transports, push)
- backend/services/mesh/mesh_hashchain.py (gate wire ref key)
- backend/services/mesh/mesh_wormhole_prekey.py (peer prekey lookup)

Zero hostility, by design:

- Single-peer installs leave MESH_PEER_SECRETS empty -> resolver falls
  back to MESH_PEER_PUSH_SECRET -> behavior is byte-for-byte unchanged.
- Multi-peer installs that haven't migrated yet behave exactly as
  before.
- Multi-peer installs that DO migrate set MESH_PEER_SECRETS on both
  ends of each peering and immediately close the impersonation surface
  for those URLs. Migration is incremental: unlisted peers keep using
  the global secret.

Tests in backend/tests/test_per_peer_secret_resolver.py:
- env parsing (default, override, whitespace, malformed entries, cache)
- precedence: per-peer beats global
- migration window: unlisted peer falls back to global
- IMPERSONATION REFUSAL: peer A with global-secret-only cannot forge
  HMAC for peer B that has a per-peer secret configured
- IMPERSONATION REFUSAL: peer A with its OWN per-peer secret cannot
  forge HMAC for peer B
- positive control: legitimate peer B request verifies
- zero-behavior-change: single-peer install produces the same key bytes
  as before the change

Shadowbroker e36d1fc79c [security] Close tg12 audit issues #201–#214 seamlessly (#261)
External security audit by @tg12 (May 17, 2026) filed issues #201–#214
in addition to the #189–#200 batch already closed by PRs #227/#232/#260.
This PR closes all eight that are real security bugs (the other six in
the 201–214 range are either design discussions or upstream-abuse/TOS
concerns we're keeping intentional, see issue triage notes on each).

The user-facing principle for this PR: fix the security gap WITHOUT
introducing a single hostile error or behavior change for legitimate
users. Every fix follows the same template — fail forward, not loud.
When the secure path is harder than the insecure one, build a
fallback chain that ends in graceful degradation, not in a scary
modal or 422 response.

  #205 — OpenMHZ audio redirect SSRF (services/radio_intercept.py)

  Replaced requests.get(..., allow_redirects=True) with a manual
  redirect loop that re-validates each hop's host against
  _OPENMHZ_AUDIO_HOSTS. Same-host redirects (CDN edge selection)
  still work, so legitimate audio playback is unaffected. Cross-host
  redirects to disallowed hosts return a generic 502 which the
  browser audio element handles gracefully. Cap at 5 hops.

  #207 — infonet/status verify_signatures DoS (routers/mesh_public.py)

  Silently downgrade verify_signatures=true to False for
  unauthenticated callers. No error surfaced — the response shape is
  identical, just without the O(n_events) signature verification.
  Authenticated callers (scoped mesh.audit) still get the full path.
  The frontend never passes this param so legitimate UI is unaffected.

  #211 — thermal/verify expensive analysis (routers/sigint.py)

  Added Depends(require_local_operator). Frontend has no direct
  callers (verified by grep); Tauri/AI agents use scoped tokens that
  pass the auth check. Anonymous abusers blocked silently — the
  legitimate UI keeps working through the Next.js admin-key proxy.

  #213, #214 — OpenMHZ calls/audio upstream abuse (routers/radio.py)

  Added Depends(require_local_operator) to both. Browser users hit
  these through the Next.js proxy at src/app/api/[...path]/route.ts
  which injects X-Admin-Key, so the auth check passes transparently.
  Direct attackers can no longer rotate sys_names to hammer
  api.openmhz.com or relay arbitrary audio streams through the
  backend's bandwidth.

  #202 — overflights unbounded hours (routers/data.py)

  Silently clamp `hours` to OVERFLIGHTS_MAX_HOURS (default 72,
  configurable). NO 422 — clients asking for an absurd window get a
  shorter window back with `requested_hours` and `effective_hours`
  hint fields. Postel's law: liberal in what we accept, conservative
  in what we compute.

  #203 — Meshtastic callsign UA leak (services/fetchers/meshtastic_map.py)

  Added MESHTASTIC_SEND_CALLSIGN_HEADER opt-out env var. Default is
  TRUE — preserves existing operator behavior (callsign sent so
  meshtastic.org can rate-limit per-install). Privacy-conscious
  operators set it to false to suppress.

  #206 — KiwiSDR upstream is HTTP-only (services/kiwisdr_fetcher.py)

  Upstream rx.linkfanel.net doesn't speak HTTPS (verified — Apache
  2.4.10 only on port 80). We can't fix the transport. Instead added
  three layers:
    1. Content validation on fetched data — reject responses with
       <50 receivers or >5% malformed entries (likely MITM injection).
    2. Existing disk cache fallback (already present).
    3. NEW: bundled static directory at backend/data/kiwisdr_directory.json
       shipping 798 known-good receivers. Used as last resort so the
       KiwiSDR map layer always renders something useful.

  #208 — Merkle proof DoS via /api/mesh/infonet/sync (services/mesh/mesh_hashchain.py)

  The endpoint is part of the cross-node federation protocol — peers
  legitimately call it without local-operator auth, so we can't add
  Depends(). Instead made the underlying operation O(1) per proof
  via a cached Merkle level structure on the Infonet instance:
    - _merkle_levels_cache + _merkle_levels_for_event_count on each
      Infonet instance
    - _invalidate_merkle_cache() called from every chain mutation
      point (append, ingest_events, apply_fork, cleanup_expired)
    - _get_merkle_levels() does the lazy recompute on first read
      after invalidation, then serves from cache thereafter
  Effect: anonymous attackers hammering the proofs endpoint hit a
  cached structure; the rebuild happens at most once per real chain
  advance. Federation untouched.

  #201 — Tor bundle SHA-256 bypass (services/tor_hidden_service.py)

  Docker users were already covered — backend/Dockerfile installs
  Tor via apt-get at build time (signed by Debian's package system).
  No runtime download needed for the 80%-of-users case.

  For Tauri desktop, replaced the single .sha256sum check with a
  multi-source verification chain implemented in _verify_tor_bundle():
    1. Try upstream .sha256sum (current behavior — fast path)
    2. Try baked-in digest list at backend/data/tor_bundle_digests.json
       (pinned per-version, maintainer-updated)
    3. If neither source is REACHABLE: HTTPS-only fallback with a loud
       warning (avoids breaking first-run onboarding while the
       maintainer hasn't yet pinned a new Tor release)
  A mismatch from a source that DID respond is always fatal — only
  the "no source reachable" case falls back to HTTPS-only. This is
  the "have cake and eat it" pattern: real users see no new failure
  modes during torproject.org outages, but MITM/compromise attacks
  still fail because the downloaded digest can't match what BOTH
  the upstream and the baked-in list report.

  Currently the digest file ships with placeholder values for the
  current Tor URLs (those URLs are already stale on torproject.org
  too). A follow-up commit can populate real digests when a stable
  Tor release is selected; until then the HTTPS-only warning fires
  and onboarding still works.

Tests (82 total, all passing):
  test_openmhz_redirect_ssrf.py        (5 tests)  — #205
  test_infonet_status_verify_gate.py   (2 tests)  — #207
  test_overflights_clamp.py            (5 tests)  — #202
  test_meshtastic_callsign_optout.py   (3 tests)  — #203
  test_kiwisdr_fallback.py             (6 tests)  — #206
  test_merkle_cache.py                 (6 tests)  — #208
  test_tor_bundle_verification.py      (6 tests)  — #201
  test_control_surface_auth.py         (extended) — #211, #213, #214
  + all previous security tests (CCTV redirect, GDELT https, sentinel
    cache, crowdthreat opt-in, third-party fetcher gates, control
    surface auth) continue to pass.

Pre-existing test infrastructure issue with SHARED_EXECUTOR teardown
in the broader sweep exists on main too (verified) — not introduced
by this PR.

BigBodyCobain 71a9d9e144 [security] Close post-#227 control-surface and fetcher gaps
PR #227 hardened most Wormhole/Infonet control surfaces behind
require_local_operator and made the CrowdThreat fetcher opt-in. An
audit of the codebase against that PR's stated goals turned up four
classes of gap that the original change missed:

1. Two operator-only endpoints were left unprotected:
   - POST /api/wormhole/join: calls bootstrap_wormhole_identity() and
     flips the node into Tor mode, exactly the surface #227 hardened
     on /api/wormhole/identity/bootstrap.
   - POST /api/sigint/transmit: relays APRS-IS packets over radio
     using operator-supplied credentials. Anything that reached the
     API could transmit on the operator's authority.

   Both now require_local_operator. test_control_surface_auth.py
   extended with regression coverage for both.

2. Five third-party fetchers were still default-on, phoning home to
   politically/commercially sensitive upstreams on every poll cycle:
   - fimi.py            -> euvsdisinfo.eu        -> FIMI_ENABLED
   - prediction_markets -> Polymarket + Kalshi   -> PREDICTION_MARKETS_ENABLED
   - financial.py       -> Finnhub / yfinance    -> FINANCIAL_ENABLED or FINNHUB_API_KEY
   - nuforc_enrichment  -> huggingface.co        -> NUFORC_ENABLED
   - news.py            -> configured RSS feeds  -> NEWS_ENABLED (default on, kill switch)

   Same CrowdThreat-style pattern: explicit env-var opt-in, empty
   the data slot and mark_fresh when disabled. New regression test
   file test_third_party_fetchers_opt_in.py asserts each fetcher's
   network entry point is not called when its gate is off.

3. The outbound User-Agent leaked both the operator's personal email
   and a fork-specific GitHub URL on every fetcher request. Consolidated
   to a single DEFAULT_USER_AGENT in network_utils.py, project-generic
   by default (no contact info), overridable via SHADOWBROKER_USER_AGENT
   for operators who want to identify themselves (e.g. for Nominatim or
   weather.gov usage-policy compliance). Six call sites updated; the
   Nominatim-specific override is preserved.

4. The same generic UA now also flows through the peer prekey lookup
   in mesh_wormhole_prekey.py, so DM first-contact requests no longer
   identify the caller as a Shadowbroker fork to the peer being
   queried.

.env.example updated to document all new opt-in env vars.

Tests: backend/tests/test_control_surface_auth.py (extended),
       backend/tests/test_crowdthreat_opt_in.py (unchanged, still passes),
       backend/tests/test_third_party_fetchers_opt_in.py (new, 7 tests).
All 31 tests pass.

BigBodyCobain 25a98a9869 Harden Infonet DM address flow and seed sync
Allow local-operator DM invite import without requiring a full admin session.

Prioritize bundled/bootstrap seed peers and shorten stale seed cooldowns for faster Infonet recovery.

Replace raw DM invite dumps with copyable signed-address controls, contact request handling, and safer sealed-send behavior while the private delivery route connects.

anoracleofra-code 1fd12beb7a fix: relay nodes now accept gate messages (skip gate-exists check)
Relay nodes run in store-and-forward mode with no local gate configs,
so gate_manager.can_enter() always returned "Gate does not exist" —
silently rejecting every pushed gate message. This broke cross-node
gate message delivery entirely since no relay ever stored anything.

Relay mode now skips the gate-existence check after signature
verification passes, allowing encrypted gate blobs to flow through.

anoracleofra-code 59b1723866 feat: fix gate message delivery + per-gate content encryption
Phase 1 — Transport layer fix:
- Bake in default MESH_PEER_PUSH_SECRET so peer push, real-time
  propagation, and pull-sync all work out of the box instead of
  silently no-oping on an empty secret.
- Pass secret through docker-compose.yml for container deployments.

Phase 2 — Per-gate content keys:
- Generate a cryptographically random 32-byte secret per gate on
  creation (and backfill existing gates on startup).
- Upgrade HKDF envelope encryption to use per-gate secret as IKM
  so knowing a gate name alone no longer decrypts messages.
- 3-tier decryption fallback (phase2 key → legacy name-only →
  legacy node-local) preserves backward compatibility.
- Expose gate_secret via list_gates API for authorized members.

anoracleofra-code da09cf429e fix: cross-node gate decryption, UI text scaling, aircraft zoom
- Derive gate envelope AES key from gate ID via HKDF so all nodes
  sharing a gate can decrypt each other's messages (was node-local)
- Preserve gate_envelope/reply_to in chain payload normalization
- Bump Wormhole modal text from 9-10px to 12-13px
- Add aircraft icon zoom interpolation (0.8→2.0 across zoom 5-12)
- Reduce Mesh Chat panel text sizes for tighter layout

anoracleofra-code b03dc936df fix: auto-enable raw secure storage fallback in Docker containers
Docker/Linux containers have no DPAPI or native keyring, causing all
wormhole persona/gate/identity endpoints to crash with
SecureStorageError. Detect /.dockerenv and auto-allow raw fallback
so mesh features work out of the box in Docker.

anoracleofra-code 668ce16dc7 v0.9.6: InfoNet hashchain, Wormhole gate encryption, mesh reputation, 16 community contributors
Gate messages now propagate via the Infonet hashchain as encrypted blobs — every node syncs them
through normal chain sync while only Gate members with MLS keys can decrypt. Added mesh reputation
system, peer push workers, voluntary Wormhole opt-in for node participation, fork recovery,
killwormhole scripts, obfuscated terminology, and hardened the self-updater to protect encryption
keys and chain state during updates.

New features: Shodan search, train tracking, Sentinel Hub imagery, 8 new intelligence layers,
CCTV expansion to 11,000+ cameras across 6 countries, Mesh Terminal CLI, prediction markets,
desktop-shell scaffold, and comprehensive mesh test suite (215 frontend + backend tests passing).
