Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Wallet authentication now supports SEP-53 message signing, with SEP-10 transaction signing as a fallback when message signing isn’t supported.
    • Authentication sessions now show which method was used.
    • WalletConnect support is available on supported Stellar networks, with a reminder to check the mobile wallet’s network when it can’t be verified automatically.
  • Documentation
    • Added deployment guidance for authentication setup, network configuration, and current limitations.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The web app adds SEP-10 transaction authentication alongside SEP-53 message authentication. The changes add server-signed SEP-53 challenges, SEP-10 challenge and verification endpoints, wallet selection and fallback logic, and authentication-method session fields.

Changes

Wallet authentication

Layer / File(s) Summary
Authentication contracts and server configuration
apps/web/src/lib/auth/types.ts, apps/web/src/lib/auth/server.ts, apps/web/lib/auth/security.test.ts, apps/web/.env.example
Authentication types distinguish SEP-53 and SEP-10 challenges. Server helpers configure SEP-10 keys and domains, set a five-minute challenge TTL, and return structured claim results. Environment examples add WalletConnect and SEP-10 settings.
SEP-53 server-signed challenge verification
apps/web/src/app/api/auth/challenge/route.ts, apps/web/src/lib/auth/client.ts, apps/web/src/lib/auth/message.ts, apps/web/src/lib/auth/verification.ts, apps/web/src/lib/auth/verification.test.ts
The challenge route validates the address and returns the challenge with a server public key and signature. Client and server verification include those values in the authentication message and verify the server signature.
SEP-10 challenge and proof endpoints
apps/web/src/app/api/auth/sep10/*, apps/web/src/lib/auth/client.ts
The new endpoints issue SEP-10 challenges and verify signed transactions. Verification checks the challenge claim, network, address, and client signer. The client adds requests for SEP-10 challenges and proof verification.
Wallet selection and authentication session
apps/web/src/components/wallet-controls.tsx, apps/web/src/lib/wallet-kit.ts, apps/web/src/lib/auth/client.ts, apps/web/src/app/api/auth/{verify,session}/route.ts, docs/DEPLOYMENT.md
Wallet controls try SEP-53 first and use SEP-10 when SEP-53 is unsupported. Wallet-kit initialization supports optional WalletConnect configuration. Authentication responses and sessions expose the method, and deployment guidance documents setup and limitations.

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to b716d

Some wallet failures can trigger an unnecessary second signing prompt, and a SEP-10 proof can be reused in a narrow restart window. These bounded issues warrant fixes or explicit acceptance before merge.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to b716d

The new wallet fallback appears to reject normally signed challenges, and its replay protection is not coordinated across server instances. Existing sign-in also now requires a configured server key. The available evidence does not establish a way to authenticate as another wallet.

Retained concerns

  • Medium · reliability · inferred: The fallback submits a wallet-signed transaction, while verification requires its serialized XDR to equal the pre-signing challenge. Because signing ordinarily adds a signature to the envelope, valid SEP-10 sign-ins appear to fail before signer verification. This materially affects availability of the new authentication path.
  • Low · security · inferred: On a successful SEP-10 verification, the session retains its challenge and is saved before its process-local claim is consumed. A separate worker cannot see that claim, so single-use is not enforced across workers if a valid proof reaches this transition. The signed-XDR gate limits demonstrated reachability, and production worker topology is unknown.
  • Medium · reliability · inferred: Existing SEP-53 challenge issuance now requires the SEP-10 server secret as well. A deployment without a valid secret cannot issue either kind of challenge, although the deployment instructions explicitly call for provisioning it; whether production has done so is unknown.
Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — The new route can create the shared authenticated session used by at least the dashboard endpoint. Its controls bind the proof to the stored challenge and wallet signer; the complete set of protected consumers and production ingress exposure remain unestablished.

Security Findings and Attack Paths

  • inferred — The retained single-use finding is supported by the local claim store and SEP-10 save-before-consume sequence. Repetition on an isolated worker would require a valid proof and the relevant session challenge; the signed-XDR equality check casts doubt on reachability through the ordinary wallet flow. No evidence establishes cross-wallet impersonation.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — The public SEP-10 handlers rate-limit requests. Before session elevation, verification requires an unexpired matching session challenge, configured network, parsed account matching the challenge address, and that account’s signer.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

  • observed — Claim and rate-limit state are process-local. SEP-53 already uses claim, save, and consume in that order, but removes its session challenge before saving; the new SEP-10 path does not.

Hardening Proposals

  • proposed — Validate the signed envelope against the issued challenge without requiring signature-bearing XDR bytes to equal pre-signing bytes; retain the account, network, domain, and signer checks.
  • proposed — Make challenge consumption effective across isolated workers and remove the challenge from the authenticated session as part of the successful transition. Validate both sign-in methods with the server key provisioned before rollout.

Reachability: External

CWE: CWE-294 — Authentication Bypass by Capture-replay

Clear the SEP-10 challenge from the session after successful verification.

claimAuthChallenge and consumeAuthChallenge keep replay state in process memory. If the process restarts before expiresAt, the session still contains the challenge, so the signed XDR can be submitted again. Delete the challenge before saving the authenticated session.

Proposed fix
+    delete session.challenge;
     session.address = parsed.clientAccountID;

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

The signmessage pattern can send real failures into the SEP-10 fallback.

The regex on Line 84 matches any error message that contains signmessage. A wallet can raise an error such as "signMessage failed: locked" for a reason that has nothing to do with SEP-53 support. The code then treats that error as "SEP-53 unsupported" and starts the SEP-10 flow. The user sees a second signing prompt and loses the original error. Remove the bare signmessage pattern. Keep the explicit unsupported and not-implemented patterns.

Proposed fix
-  return code === -3 || /(unsupported|not supported|not implemented|method not found|signmessage)/.test(message);
+  return code === -3 || /(unsupported|not supported|not implemented|method not found)/.test(message);
