📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The PR addresses security finding F-02 by replacing the unconstrained private usernameHash input in MerkleUpdateProof with a constrained username[32] input that is internally hashed using the UsernameHash component. Additionally, a WASM build check was added to CI to catch std-incompatible code on every PR.

Changes

Cohort / File(s) Summary
CI/Workflow
.github/workflows/checks.yml
Added "Build WASM target" step to build with wasm32v1-none --release target after Cargo check, catching WASM-incompatible code on every PR.
Security Documentation
SECURITY_FIX_SUMMARY.md
New file documenting security fix for Finding F-02: replacing unconstrained usernameHash private input with constrained username[32] input and internal UsernameHash component instantiation.
Circuit Implementation
zk/circuits/merkle/merkle_update_proof.circom
Changed private input from usernameHash to username[32], included username_hash.circom, instantiated UsernameHash component internally, and wired computed hash as Merkle leaf instead of unconstrained input.
Test Updates
zk/tests/test_update_proof.js
Added computeUsernameHash() helper implementing two-stage Poseidon hashing; updated test fixture to generate username[32] array and use computed hash instead of hardcoded value.

Poem

🐰 A username once slipped through the wire,
Unconstrained, what a security dire!
Now hashed within, with Poseidon's grace,
The leaf is locked in its rightful place.
And WASM checks on every PR,
Ensure no sneaky std creeps too far!

Remove changes to zk/circuits/merkle/merkle_update_proof.circom, SECURITY_FIX_SUMMARY.md, and zk/tests/test_update_proof.js as they address a separate security fix (Finding F-02) outside the scope of the CI build check task.

72-72: ⚠️ Potential issue | 🔴 Critical

Multiple component main declarations prevent compilation.

The circom compiler found 7 separate component main declarations across the project:

  • zk/circuits/username_merkle.circom:54
  • zk/circuits/merkle_update.circom:99
  • zk/circuits/username_hash.circom:48
  • zk/circuits/merkle/merkle_non_inclusion.circom:70
  • zk/circuits/merkle/username_leaf_main.circom:18
  • zk/circuits/merkle/merkle_update_proof.circom:72
  • zk/circuits/merkle/merkle_inclusion.circom:37

Circom requires exactly one main component per compilation. Either consolidate all circuits into a single main component, or configure the build system to compile each circuit file independently.

⚠️ Potential issue | 🟡 Minor

Clarify that the private input interface changed.

The statement "Same public interface and security guarantees" is partially misleading. While the public inputs/outputs (oldRoot, newRoot, out_newRoot) remain unchanged, the private input changed from usernameHash (single field element) to username[32] (32-element array). This is a breaking change for any off-chain code that generates witnesses for this circuit.

Consider revising to: "Same public inputs/outputs; private input interface updated (callers must now provide username[32] instead of usernameHash)."
