Summary

The LAN hello now checks what it reads before using it: nonces must be strict 32-byte base64url (as spec/live.md says), signatures 64-byte strict base64url (else SIGNATURE), the membership check runs before fromHex on the peer's did, and fields and the port are read with their types checked. Before, a non-base64 nonce or a non-string did threw IllegalArgumentException, a 16-byte nonce was accepted and message 2 was signed and sent, and "p":{} threw. LanSync.meet already caught these, so it wasn't user-visible.

Validation

  • ./gradlew :app:assembleGithubDebug: not run locally, no app code outside sync2 changed; CI builds the APK
  • ./gradlew --offline :app:testGithubDebugUnitTest --tests 'io.github.aedev.flow.sync2.*' --tests 'io.github.aedev.flow.sync.*': 160 sync2 and 162 sync tests, 0 failures. New LanLinkTest 3/3; before: expected:<[Unexpected, 0 sent x3]> but was:<[IllegalArgumentException, 0 sent, Unexpected, 1 sent, IllegalArgumentException, 0 sent]>
  • ./gradlew --offline ktlintCheck: passed
  • I manually tested the affected behavior on an Android device or emulator.

Test device and Android version: not device-tested

Risk and compatibility

LAN only; valid hellos are unchanged.

  • The change does not introduce secrets, private data, or unexpected telemetry.
  • New user-facing text uses Android string resources.
  • Dependency and lockfile changes are intentional and limited to this PR.
  • Room schema changes include the required version bump and migration, or this PR does not change the Room schema.
  • Breaking changes and upgrade steps are clearly documented.
