2015-10-06Test LowS in standardness, removes nuisance malleability vector.Gregory Maxwell
This adds SCRIPT_VERIFY_LOW_S to STANDARD_SCRIPT_VERIFY_FLAGS which will make the node require the canonical 'low-s' encoding for ECDSA signatures when relaying or mining. Consensus behavior is unchanged. The rational is explained in a81cd96805ce6b65cca3a40ebbd3b2eb428abb7b: Absent this kind of test ECDSA is not a strong signature as given a valid signature {r, s} both that value and {r, -s mod n} are valid. These two encodings have different hashes allowing third parties a vector to change users txids. These attacks are avoided by picking a particular form as canonical and rejecting the other form(s); in the of the LOW_S rule, the smaller of the two possible S values is used. If widely deployed this change would eliminate the last remaining known vector for nuisance malleability on boring SIGHASH_ALL p2pkh transactions. On the down-side it will block most transactions made by sufficiently out of date software. Unlike the other avenues to change txids on boring transactions this one was randomly violated by all deployed bitcoin software prior to its discovery. So, while other malleability vectors where made non-standard as soon as they were discovered, this one has remained permitted. Even BIP62 did not propose applying this rule to old version transactions, but conforming implementations have become much more common since BIP62 was initially written. Bitcoin Core has produced compatible signatures since a28fb70e in September 2013, but this didn't make it into a release until 0.9 in March 2014; Bitcoinj has done so for a similar span of time. Bitcoinjs and electrum have been more recently updated. This does not replace the need for BIP62 or similar, as miners can still cooperate to break transactions. Nor does it replace the need for wallet software to handle malleability sanely[1]. This only eliminates the cheap and irritating DOS attack.

2015-10-01Accept any sequence of PUSHDATAs in OP_RETURN outputsPeter Todd
Previously only one PUSHDATA was allowed, needlessly limiting applications such as matching OP_RETURN contents with bloom filters that operate on a per-PUSHDATA level. Now any combination that passes IsPushOnly() is allowed, so long as the total size of the scriptPubKey is less than 42 bytes. (unchanged modulo non-minimal PUSHDATA encodings) Also, this fixes the odd bug where previously the PUSHDATA could be replaced by any single opcode, even sigops consuming opcodes such as CHECKMULTISIG. (20 sigops!)
2015-10-01Add IsPushOnly(const_iterator pc)Peter Todd
Allows IsPushOnly() to be applied to just part of the script for OP_RETURN outputs.
2015-10-01Make TX_SCRIPTHASH clear vSolutionsRet firstPeter Todd
Previously unlike other transaction types the TX_SCRIPTHASH would not clear vSolutionsRet, which means that unlike other transaction types if it was called twice in a row you would get the result of the previous invocation as well.

2015-10-01build: remove libressl checkWladimir J. van der Laan
Now that BIP66 passed, OpenSSL is no longer directly part of the consensus. What matters is that DER signatures are correctly parsed, and secp256k1 crypto is implemented correctly (as well as the other functions we use from OpenSSL, such as random number generation) This means that effectively, using LibreSSL is not a larger risk than using another version of OpenSSL. Remove the specific check for LibreSSL. Includes the still-relevant part of #6729: make sure CHECK_HEADER is called using the right CXXFLAGS, not CFLAGS (as AC_LANG is c++).

This makes sure that the event loop eventually terminates, even if an event (like an open timeout, or a hanging connection) happens to be holding it up.
