fix(circuits)!: bound openings, quotients and VK trees [skip-line-limit]

[zahrajavar]

Summary

Seventeen soundness fixes across eight circuits, reducing to three root causes, plus reduced arithmetic that more than pays for them. All are reproduced or established against the circuits on main; none were introduced by this branch.

Fixes #1992, #1997, #1998, plus findings not previously tracked.

With every fix included, total circuit size falls 18.3% on secure-8192 / minimum committee (18,707,132 → 15,277,601 gates; per-circuit table below). Two circuits stay above main: C5, and C4 at larger committees. Their extra cost is the soundness fixes themselves; see Circuit size.

This branch also carries:

• fix(circuits)!: bind complete recursive vk trees [skip-line-limit] #2090 (0xjei, merged into this branch): binds complete recursive verification-key trees in the folds (closes F4) and versions the proof format as interfold-bfv-v3.
• Per-pair array-bound sync in scripts/build-circuits.ts (ctrlc03): array-valued bounds such as PK_GENERATION_E_SM_QUOTIENT_BOUNDS now follow the committee when building micro and small pairs, instead of keeping the minimum-committee values.
• CRISP wiring: the ballot SDK passes the new ct0/ct1 inputs, and the CRISP fold key hashes and verifiers are regenerated.

Root cause A — a CRT consistency equation with unbounded quotients

lifted == residue + quotient * q is satisfiable for any residue, because q is invertible modulo the BN254 prime. Without a bound on the quotient, the equation holds mod p rather than over ℤ, and constrains nothing.

circuit	what was wrong
C1 pk_generation (#1992)	e_sm limbs were checked against the integer smudging bound (2^143) while a limb spans 2^57 — vacuous, so the smudging noise was unbounded up to Q. Secure-8192 only.
ct0 user_data_encryption_ct0 (#1997)	e0is/e0_quotients unchecked → e0is free, uncommitted, outside the FS payload → the ct0 relation was forgeable. Both presets.
C3 dkg/share_encryption (#1998)	Same gap, and the split was dead weight: DKG e0_bound is 20/6, far below every q_i/2, so quotients are always zero. Removed entirely.
C7 decrypted_shares_aggregation	verify_crt_reconstruction had no bound on the quotients, and the circuit contained no range check at all. For fixed public inputs, C7 accepted every message — one committee member could publish any plaintext against the real shares and real C6 commitments.

Root cause B — opening a commitment without injectivity

pack builds each carrier as a base-radix number (acc = acc * radix + (v + base)), unique only while every digit stays below radix. An unbounded coefficient overflows its slot and cancels against the next: same carrier, same commitment, different values. pack was non-injective.

circuit	opened	was bounded by
C5 pk_aggregation	C1's pk0	nothing → aggregator could publish a key whose effective secret is 0, making every ciphertext readable
C4 dkg/share_decryption	C2's shares	nothing → node publishes an anchor that isn't the sum of shares received; wrong decryptions, all proofs valid, no on-chain signal
C2a sk_share_computation	C1's sk	nothing — check_range_bounds covers shares (party_idx >= 1), not the secret. At BIT_SECRET = 1 the slot is only radix = 2^8
C2b e_sm_share_computation	C1's e_sm	only < 2^64, from the as u64 cast in centering — a bound, but not tight enough for the slot
C6 threshold/share_decryption	C4's sk, C4's e_sm, the ciphertext	nothing — only r1/r2 checked

Fixed in two stages: first with two-sided range checks (871eb7cf, 49353eaa), then replaced by pack_checked — one assert_max_bit_size::<nibble_bits + 4>() per digit, which is digit < radix, at half the cost. Injectivity forces the opened value to equal the committed one, so the creating circuit's bound transfers and needn't be repeated.

Two bounds stay, because injectivity is not canonicality: C1's pk0 (C1 originates it, and the key equation absorbs +q against r1) and C5's pk0_agg (opened from nothing; the sum pins it only mod q_l).

Root cause C — witnesses reaching the Fiat–Shamir transcript unbound

Root cause B's enumeration was "which circuits open a commitment they did not create." That axis was too narrow. What matters is that every prover-chosen witness reaches the sponge injectively — whether through a commitment, through flatten directly, or through a commitment the circuit creates — because gamma is independent of the witness only while the packing has one opening. Eight more members.

circuit	vector	what was wrong
C6 threshold/share_decryption	d	All N coefficients absorbed through unchecked pack with no range check anywhere; verify_d_native_trunc_binding pins only the last 100 per limb, leaving 8,092 of 8,192 free. An inter-slot carry left the carrier and so gamma unchanged, and delta = -1 / (gamma^6 * (gamma - radix)) preserved d(gamma) too — so the circuit accepted a decryption share the committed sk / e_sm / ct never produced.
C3 dkg/share_encryption	ct0is, ct1is	Same carry; neither vector range-checked.
C7 decrypted_shares_aggregation	the C6 share commitment	Opened with the unchecked helper, so one commitment opened to a second share vector and C7 reconstructed a different plaintext.
ct0	pk0is, ct0is	Reach the transcript only through commitments ct0 creates, neither range-checked. pk0is matters most: the public key is anchored off-circuit — CRISPProgram substitutes the registry's committee key into the pk commitment it verifies (noirPublicInputs[8] = e3.committeePublicKey) — so the anchor rests entirely on that commitment having one opening. Without it a voter could encrypt under a perturbed key the chain still accepts.
ct1	u, pk1is, ct1is	None range-checked. u is the clearest: the user_data_encryption fold already asserts ct0's and ct1's u commitments are equal, so the check existed and non-injective packing walked past it.

Reduced arithmetic

The root-cause-C fixes pushed ct0 past the srsSize: 2**21 that CRISP hardcodes for in-browser proving (examples/CRISP/packages/crisp-sdk/src/vote.ts:40), which would have stopped browser proving outright rather than slowing it. Rather than leave that, the ct0/ct1/C3/C7 arithmetic from feat/secure-circuit-optimizations is ported here and generalised off its fixed parameter set.

Each circuit checks its identity reduced modulo X^N + 1. negacyclic_kernel evaluates pk * u mod X^N + 1 at the challenge point, so the product never enters the witness and the cyclotomic quotient it needed is gone. C7 goes further: Lagrange coefficients come from a hinted inverse proven by d * inv == 1 (mod q), and Garner reconstruction derives u rather than accepting it — which retires root cause A's C7 quotient bound entirely.

Witnesses deleted: r2is, e0is (ct0); p2is (ct1); r2is, p2is (C3); u_global, crt_quotients (C7). Several bounds went with them, because the equations that needed them no longer exist. The root-cause-C digit asserts also came back out of these four, replaced by the real bounds the reduced identity requires — the soundness fix is absorbed by the optimisation rather than stacked on it.

Nothing preset-specific survived the port. No parameters(), TH_Q, centered(), check_split, SecureThreshold8192 gate or append, and none of the literal 20/5/8192/14/54/26 asserts. Bounds come from configs and from (qis[i]-1)/2 derived in-circuit; every width is generated from the moduli. Both presets take the same path in ct0, ct1 and C7 (insecure-512 was excluded from the original entirely); C3's preset split is described below.

Since the first revision, the same approach has been applied to three more circuits, and two smaller changes have been made:

• C1, C6 (pk_generation, threshold/share_decryption): the identity is reduced the same way, so the cyclotomic quotient witnesses r1/r2 collapse into one r of length N per limb.
• C4 (dkg/share_decryption): the aggregated shares are normalised with centered_mod_bounded, with the carry bounded to 8 bits and assert(H < 256).
• C3 (dkg/share_encryption), multi-limb presets: a scaled-quotient identity replaces the per-limb quotient path. It is selected by a generated flag that is false at L = 1, so insecure-512 keeps the direct path. The production path is therefore not exercised by CI's insecure runs; it is covered by a unit fixture (N=4, L=2), by nargo execute against a real secure-8192 witness, and by the secure end-to-end run below.
• C5 (pk_aggregation): the sum check's quotient is range-checked to 8 bits instead of cast to u64 (assert(H <= 128)). This saves 49,152 gates.
• Witness generation (crates/zk-helpers): the reduced quotients for C1, C3, C6, ct0 and ct1 are derived in O(N) with fold_negacyclic and exact division, instead of quadratic reduction. Generation time per circuit went from 5–10 s back to under 1 s.

C7's decoding formula changed

From -Q^-1 * (t * u mod Q) mod t to round(t * u / Q) with t folding to zero. Reviewers should know these are the same function, not merely equal on honest inputs — compared exhaustively over every u in [0, Q) across 44 parameter pairs, zero mismatches. It is also the construction fhe.rs uses: its RNS scaler is round(numerator * input / denominator) with numerator = t, denominator = Q, so the circuit now mirrors the reference rather than an algebraic rearrangement of it. Fifteen boundary assertions pin it.

Noir has neither rounding nor division, and needs neither: rounding is a shifted floor, and the floor is a hint proven by a bounded quotient plus a canonical remainder — unique for a given numerator and divisor, so a wrong hint cannot satisfy both.

Circuit size — bb gates, secure-8192

main is the published artifact build for main; the branch is the current head. Neither column is weighted by how often each circuit runs: C3, for example, runs (N − 1) × L times per chain per node, so its saving dominates total proving work.

circuit	main (minimum)	branch (minimum)	change	main (small)	branch (small)	change
C1 pk_generation	2,223,114	1,634,682	−26.5%	same	same
C2a sk_share_computation	1,446,311	1,464,743	+1.3%	9,422,519	9,440,951	+0.2%
C2b e_sm_share_computation	2,888,964	2,586,563	−10.5%	10,865,172	10,562,771	−2.8%

ct1 user_data_encryption_ct1	1,398,622	1,216,948	−13.0%	same	same
total	18,707,132	15,277,601	−18.3%	40,310,616	39,189,116	−2.8%

C0 dkg/pk, user_data_encryption and every recursive fold and aggregator are within 200 gates of main. ("same" means the circuit does not depend on committee size.)

Why C5 and C4 (small) stay above main. C5 pays for the checked opening of every party key (104,448 gates per party) and a two-sided range check on pk0_agg (208,896). Neither can be reformulated away, because no identity inside C5 determines those values. C4 is 37% smaller than main at the minimum committee but 13% larger at the small one, so its added cost grows with the committee; I have not broken that down further. Getting either below main needs a structural change, such as chunking the parties and folding, which caps the largest circuit rather than reducing total work.

C2b is cheaper than main because BIT_E_SM dropped 143 → 57, eliminating a group == 1 configuration. packing_layout now rejects group == 1: at one value per carrier, packing saves no sponge absorption while still charging the range checks (measured +82% gates against absorbing directly). No current config reaches packing at that width.

ct0 ends at 66.7% of the browser ceiling with 697,925 gates spare — 1.7× the headroom it had before any of this work.

Verification

CI on the current head (ad0c2fac9)	all 43 checks pass, against published artifacts for source hash bb33530c255ca243
Secure end-to-end: test_trbfv_actor, BENCHMARK_MODE=secure, secure-8192 / minimum	passed in 717.7 s (M4 Pro, 48 GB). Every circuit proved with real secure parameters, including 36 C3 proofs on the scaled-quotient path, node folds, DKG aggregation and decryption aggregation; all three tallies decrypted correctly. DKG (threshold shares → public key aggregated) 576.8 s, decryption (ciphertext published → plaintext aggregated) 132.0 s
Insecure end-to-end with proof aggregation (test_trbfv_actor)	passed; regenerated the folded VK-binding fixture, and its contract test passes
nargo execute, every changed circuit × both presets	pass, with no Brillig "bug:" diagnostics; C3 executed on both its paths
C5 second-opening attack	accepted on main, rejected after
C4 second-opening attack	accepted on main, rejected after
C1 pk0 += q / r1 += 1	accepted without the bound, rejected with
C7 forged plaintext (u* = Δm*, r* = (u* − u_crt)·q_l⁻¹)	accepted without the bound, rejected with
ct0 crafted witness	accepted on main with byte-identical public outputs, rejected after
C6 forged d with an unchanged transcript	accepted before the fix, rejected after
C7 second opening of the share commitment	accepted before the fix, rejected after
ct1 second opening of u	accepted before the fix, rejected after
C7 decode vs the previous formula	exhaustive over every u in [0, Q), 44 parameter pairs — 0 mismatches
C7 decode boundaries	15 in-circuit assertions: endpoints, exact encodings, transitions, the t wrap
pack ≡ pack_checked equivalence tests	pass
honest reduced identities, hand-built at N=4	ct0, ct1, C1, C3 (both legs and the scaled path), C5, C6, Garner reconstruction; each with a tampered-witness test that must fail
generated configs vs committed	match exactly, both presets
full pre-push suite (lint, pnpm, license, committee, docs, addresses, invariants, verifiers)	all pass

Limits of the evidence. Secure-8192 end-to-end has been run at the minimum committee only; the small committee has not been run. C2a, C2b and C6 were established by reading the circuits, not by building exploits: I confirmed the surrounding constraints don't obstruct the collision, but constructing witnesses needs machinery (Shamir parity for C2, recomputing d for C6) that the honest generator has and the tampering harness doesn't. For root cause C, C3's ciphertext and ct0's pk0is are guarded by regression tests that reject the carry, not by a complete forged witness.

Open items

Before deployment

1. Governance cutover. The proof format is interfold-bfv-v3 with protocol_version = 6 (from fix(circuits)!: bind complete recursive vk trees [skip-line-limit] #2090). Old and new nodes cannot interoperate, so this is not a rolling release: pause requests, drain active E3s and committee obligations, replace the BFV verifier wrappers and routers (BfvPkVerifier, BfvDecryptionVerifier, pinned from the generated .vk_tree_hash anchors and the separate C5/C7 key hashes), then restart matching nodes.
2. bin/config re-derivation of PK_GENERATION_E_SM_BOUND is stale. nargo execute on bin/config fails with an E_SM_BOUND mismatch, on main as well as here, and CI only type-checks it (nargo check), so every check after that one is unreached. It does not affect the production circuits, but the cross-check it is meant to provide is not running.

Follow-ups, not blocking

3. C5, and C4 at larger committees, remain above main (see Circuit size). Reducing them needs chunking and folding over parties.
4. On-chain key anchoring is per program. For CRISP it holds: BfvPkVerifier requires the DKG proof's aggregated-key commitment to equal the published pkCommitment (PkCommitmentMismatch), and CRISPProgram substitutes that stored key into ct0's public inputs (noirPublicInputs[8] = e3.committeePublicKey). Any other E3 program that verifies user ciphertexts must do the same substitution, or pk0is/pk1is are not anchored.

Resolved since the last revision of this description

• F4 (fold circuits not pinning which circuit an inner proof came from): fixed by fix(circuits)!: bind complete recursive vk trees [skip-line-limit] #2090, merged into this branch.
• CIRCUIT_VERSION: bumped to interfold-bfv-v3 in ActiveCryptoConfig.sol, crates/evm/src/interfold/events.rs and crates/indexer/src/indexer.rs; the commits carry fix!.
• Artifacts: all six (preset, committee) pairs rebuilt and published to circuit-artifacts for source hash bb33530c255ca243; the verifiers and the folded VK-binding fixture are regenerated.
• Source hash omitting the shared Noir library: computeSourceHash now covers circuits/lib/src/core and circuits/lib/src/math. A library-only change moves the hash (the C5 change did).
• On-chain pk anchoring: confirmed for CRISP, as in item 5.

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 119d1

This change strengthens circuit soundness, but it also changes the circuit witness shapes and a commitment value. The circuit version and derived configuration IDs must be updated, and the verification artifacts must be regenerated. Otherwise, nodes running different versions can share a configuration ID while failing to verify each other's proofs. Resolve these deployment items before merging.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 119d1

The changes strengthen proof constraints, and the inspected decryption path retains its link to verified share commitments. No introduced security regression was established. The breadth of the circuit-contract changes and incomplete validation of other proof paths warrant design review.

Retained concerns
No architecture-level concerns identified.

Security review details

Security Blast Radius

• inferred — An invalid C7 proof could affect the plaintext attributed to a reconstructed committee ciphertext; the inspected recursive verifier limits that path by requiring the C7 share commitments to match verified C6-fold outputs.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

• observed — Although the host derives C7's expected commitments from its submitted shares, the final recursive proof requires those commitments to equal the verified C6-fold commitments; host derivation alone is not the final authorization boundary.

Bump and propagate CIRCUIT_VERSION for the changed C1 contract.

The C1 witness contract changed, but CIRCUIT_VERSION remains keccak256("interfold-bfv-v1"). Old and new builds therefore derive the same cryptoConfigId, and both pass the current release policy.

Bumping CIRCUIT_VERSION and regenerating all derived configuration IDs is required because the repository invariant requires the ID to bind the circuit version. This change alone does not reject old nodes from the release gate. If deployment must reject old nodes, also increase and activate the required protocol version. A release-policy change alone can reject old nodes, but it leaves the configuration ID incorrectly shared by both circuit versions.

Suggested version and release-policy changes

-    bytes32 internal constant CIRCUIT_VERSION = keccak256("interfold-bfv-v1");
+    bytes32 internal constant CIRCUIT_VERSION = keccak256("interfold-bfv-v2");

Regenerate ActiveCryptoConfig.sol, ciphernode, indexer, verifier configuration, and all derived IDs. If old nodes must fail release admission:

-protocol_version = 4
+protocol_version = 5

Review comment at @circuits/lib/src/configs/insecure/threshold.nr around lines
1063 - 1065:
Update CIRCUIT_VERSION to identify the changed C1 witness contract, then
regenerate and propagate the resulting cryptoConfigId through
ActiveCryptoConfig.sol and the ciphernode, indexer, and verifier configurations.
If deployment must reject old nodes at release admission, also increase and
activate the required protocol version; do not rely on a release-policy change
instead of versioning the circuit.
