### [46/55] C ABI Negative Contract Tests -- ~150 checks
Systematic negative testing of all 50+ `ufsecp_*` C API functions for correct error
propagation. Every function must return the documented error code (never crash, never
silently succeed) when called with:
- **NULL required pointers** → `UFSECP_ERR_NULL_ARG`
- **Zero private key (= 0 mod n)** → `UFSECP_ERR_BAD_KEY`
- **Key equal to group order (= 0 mod n)** → `UFSECP_ERR_BAD_KEY`
- **All-zero / off-curve public key** → `UFSECP_ERR_BAD_PUBKEY` or error
- **All-zero signature (R = 0)** → `UFSECP_ERR_BAD_SIG` or `UFSECP_ERR_VERIFY_FAIL`
- **Wrong public key in verify** → `UFSECP_ERR_VERIFY_FAIL`
- **Truncated / garbage DER** → `UFSECP_ERR_BAD_INPUT`
- **Output buffer too small** → `UFSECP_ERR_BUF_TOO_SMALL`
- **BIP-32 seed length < 16 bytes** → `UFSECP_ERR_BAD_INPUT`
Covers 12 function groups: context, seckey, pubkey, ECDSA, Schnorr, ECDH,
hashing, addresses, WIF, BIP-32, Taproot, pubkey arithmetic.
### [52/55] Secure Memory Erasure Verification -- 25 checks
Verifies `secp256k1::detail::secure_erase()` actually zeroes memory and that the zeroing
survives compiler dead-store elimination optimisations (volatile-pointer readback test):
- **SE-1..8**: Heap buffers of sizes 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128 bytes zeroed correctly
- **SE-9..12**: Stack buffers (32-byte, 64-byte), `std::array<uint8_t,32>`, scalar-sized struct
- **SE-13..14**: Zero-length erase is safe; 256-byte heap buffer zeroed
- **SE-15..20**: Signing path nonce determinism — same (key, msg) → identical ECDSA sig twice (proves nonce state is erased and re-derived, not leaked or reused)
- **SE-21..24**: 0xA5 and 0xFF sentinel patterns survive until erase call, then zero
- **SE-25**: Schnorr BIP-340 nonce determinism (aux=0)
### [53/55] CT Namespace Discipline (Source-Level Scan) -- ~20 checks
Source-level static analysis verifying every code path handling secret data uses `secp256k1::ct::` (constant-time) operations and not `secp256k1::fast::` (variable-time):
- Opens `cpu/src/ct_sign.cpp`, `ecdh.cpp`, `bip32.cpp`, `taproot.cpp`, `musig2.cpp` at runtime
- Strips C++ comments before scanning to eliminate false positives in comment text
- **Required patterns**: `ct::generator_mul`, `ct::scalar_inverse`, `secure_erase`, `ct::scalar_mul`, `secp256k1/ct/`
- **Prohibited patterns**: `fast::generator_mul`, `fast::scalar_mul`, `fast::point_mul`
- **Structural checks**: `ct_sign.cpp` must not `#include "secp256k1/fast.hpp"`; must include `detail/secure_erase.hpp`; `ecdh.cpp` must include `ct/point.hpp` and call `secure_erase`
- Advisory skip (not hard fail) when source tree is absent (binary-only deployment)
### [54/55] RFC 6979 Nonce Uniqueness Monitor -- 30 checks
Comprehensive verification of nonce determinism, uniqueness, and isolation:
- **NU-1..6**: ECDSA RFC 6979 determinism — same (key=1, msg[i]) → identical sig across 3 calls
- **NU-7..12**: ECDSA r-value uniqueness — 6 distinct messages with same key → 6 distinct r values
- **NU-13..17**: ECDSA key isolation — 5 different keys, same message → 5 distinct r values
- **NU-18..21**: Schnorr BIP-340 determinism — aux_rand=0, 4 messages, each stable across 3 calls
- **NU-22..25**: Schnorr R.x uniqueness — 4 distinct messages → 4 distinct R.x commitments
- **NU-26..28**: Hedged Schnorr — 3 different aux_rand bytes → 3 different R values (BIP-340 randomness)
- **NU-29**: ECDSA r ≠ Schnorr R.x for same (key, msg) — different nonce derivation paths
- **NU-30**: 5-key × 5-msg matrix — 25 ECDSA signatures → 25 pairwise distinct r values
### [55/55] Public Parse Path Strictness Audit -- ~60 checks
Systematically verifies that every public parse/decode function rejects ALL malformed inputs with
the correct documented error code — never silently accepting corrupt data. This directly addresses
the "Parsing and Validation Unification" engineering requirement.
- **PS-1..16**: `ufsecp_pubkey_parse` (compressed) — all-zero, all-0xFF, x=0, prefix 0x01/0x05, truncated (32-byte, 1-byte, 0-byte), NULL, parity-flip
- **PS-17..22**: `ufsecp_seckey_verify` — scalar=0, scalar=n, scalar=n+1, scalar=0xFF×32; scalar=1 and scalar=n−1 accepted
- **PS-23..30**: `ufsecp_ecdsa_sig_from_der` — all-zero, wrong tag (0x00, 0x31), truncated, inflated length, zero-length, NULL; valid DER round-trips
- **PS-31..36**: `ufsecp_wif_decode` — NULL, empty string, single char, corrupted checksum, garbage WIF-length; valid WIF decodes to correct key
- **PS-37..40**: `ufsecp_bip32_master` — NULL seed, 15-byte seed (<16 BIP-32 minimum), zero-length; 32-byte seed accepted
- **PS-41..48**: `ufsecp_pubkey_parse` (uncompressed, 65-byte) — all-zero, x=0/y=0, x=G.x/y=0 (off-curve), prefix 0x05/0x06 (hybrid), truncated; valid uncompressed round-trips
- **PS-49..53**: `ufsecp_pubkey_xonly` — NULL, x=0, x=p (field prime), x=2 (not on curve); valid compressed → x-only extraction correct

## Audit Gap Analysis
### What IS Covered
| Category | Status | Evidence |
|----------|--------|----------|
| Mathematical correctness (Fp, Zn, Group) | COVERED | 55/55 audit modules, 1M+ checks |
| Constant-time layer + equivalence | COVERED | dudect smoke + full, CT deep, ASM inspection, Valgrind CLASSIFY/DECLASSIFY |
| Standard test vectors (BIP-340/32, RFC 6979, FROST) | COVERED | Official vectors verified |
| Randomized differential testing | COVERED | 13K+ checks (CI) + 1.3M (nightly) |
| Fiat-Crypto reference vectors | COVERED | Golden vectors from computer algebra |
| Cross-platform KAT | COVERED | X64, ARM64, RISC-V all identical |
| Parser/adversarial fuzzing (deterministic) | COVERED | 530K+ random inputs, 0 crashes |
| Coverage-guided fuzzing | COVERED | 3 libFuzzer harnesses (field, scalar, point) + ASan |
| Fault injection simulation | COVERED | 610+ single-bit fault checks |
| Protocol security (ECDSA, Schnorr, MuSig2, FROST) | COVERED | Full protocol suites + adversarial |
| ASan + UBSan | COVERED | CI on every push (clang-17) |
| TSan | COVERED | CI on every push (clang-17) |
| Valgrind memcheck | COVERED | security-audit.yml weekly + on push |
| Static analysis (CodeQL, SonarCloud, clang-tidy) | COVERED | 3 tools on every push |
| Code coverage (Codecov) | COVERED | LLVM source-based profiling |
| Misuse/abuse tests (null ctx, invalid lengths, FFI) | COVERED | Module [31/55] + [42/55] |
| Multi-platform build (17 configurations) | COVERED | CI matrix |
| Supply-chain hardening | COVERED | Pinned actions, harden-runner, Scorecard, Dependency Review |
| Performance regression tracking | COVERED | Benchmark dashboard with alerts |
| Language bindings (12 languages) | COVERED | Bindings CI on every push |
### What Is NOT Yet Covered (Future Work)
| Category | Status | Notes |
|----------|--------|-------|
| Cross-library differential (vs bitcoin-core/libsecp256k1) | NOT YET | Would be strongest credibility signal for external auditors; nightly has `test_cross_libsecp256k1` but not in unified runner |
| GPU correctness audit | DEFERRED | Separate report when GPU side is complete |
| GPU memory safety (compute-sanitizer) | DEFERRED | Separate report |
| Reproducible build proof | NOT YET | Two independent machines -> identical binary hash |
| SBOM (CycloneDX/SPDX) | PARTIAL | Generated in release pipeline |
| Deep dudect (perf counters, cache probes) | PARTIAL | dudect full runs nightly; perf stat / cache analysis not automated |
