DPI/TSPU resistance:
- Handshake packets now padded with 32-128 random bytes (prevents size
fingerprinting — previously every handshake was exactly 52 bytes)
- Frame header reserved bytes randomized instead of always 0 (prevents
known-plaintext oracle inside encrypted payload)
- Padding jitter cap increased from 96 to 256 bytes for better traffic
pattern masking
GUI Windows app (tunnel/proxy not starting):
- CRITICAL: Added CREATE_NO_WINDOW flag to all reg.exe calls in sysproxy.rs.
In Tauri GUI context (no console window), Command::new('reg') was silently
failing because there was no attached console. This prevented the Windows
system proxy from being enabled.
- Added ProxyOverride bypass list (localhost;127.*;10.*;192.168.*;<local>)
to prevent proxy loop for local traffic
- Added comprehensive logging for all registry operations
- Set initial connection_state to 1 (connecting) instead of 0 — prevents
UI polling from immediately flipping back to 'disconnected' before the
handshake has a chance to begin
Code quality:
- Fixed log file paths: log_to_core_file() and log_to_file() now write next
to the executable instead of CWD. In GUI context, CWD could be
C:\Windows\System32, causing write failures or misplaced log files.
- Removed stale KeyExchange re-export from crypto/mod.rs (kex.rs
only exports HybridSharedSecret and HybridKex after stub refactor)
- Removed unused imports in ostp-server/lib.rs (AsyncWriteExt,
tcp::OwnedWriteHalf)
- Suppressed dead_code warning on HelperMsg::Log variant (IPC spec)
- Verified: cargo check passes with zero errors and zero warnings
Critical fixes (6):
- protocol.rs: in_flight_count() now counts only retransmittable Data frames,
not Ack/Nack control frames — eliminates false backpressure under load
- protocol.rs: NACK is now rate-limited to once per 30ms — prevents
retransmission storm during normal UDP jitter
- protocol.rs: zombie frames exceeding max_retries+4 are evicted each tick —
prevents unbounded memory growth and stale retransmits
- protocol.rs: Closing state now processes final in-flight packets instead
of silently dropping them — prevents data loss at session teardown
- server/lib.rs: stream_tx changed from bounded(10000) to unbounded_channel —
prevents TCP-reader collapse during Speedtest with 50+ streams
- bridge.rs: liveness timeout raised from 30s to 60s — prevents false
reconnect during heavy Speedtest load
Medium fixes (8):
- protocol.rs: ACK range truncation preserves cumulative range (index 0)
- bridge.rs: Ping now uses send_datagram() for correct TURN wrapping
- dispatcher.rs: replay_cache hard-capped at 100k entries (DoS protection)
- dispatcher.rs: old addr cleaned from addr_to_session on roaming
- server/lib.rs: TCP connect_target() now has 10s timeout
- config.rs: TURN section parsed during hot-reload
- proxy.rs: HTTP header parsing uses 512-byte chunks instead of 1-byte reads
- proxy.rs: stream_id wrap-around skips active IDs to prevent collision
- runner.rs: is_essential_log matches actual log strings from bridge.rs
Other:
- kex.rs: clearly marked as dead PQ stub (not used by protocol)
- README.md + README.ru.md: complete rewrite with architecture diagram
- docs/en/specification.md: updated ARQ section with all new semantics
