Recognize Rust firmware 4.0.0 with the modern applet dialect

[dangfan]

Recognize exact firmware version 4.0.0 using the supported modern applet dialect while retaining the actual firmware identity. Unknown 4.x versions remain unknown. Add facade regressions for identity and feature selection. Validation: workspace tests, strict Clippy and rustfmt pass. Used by canokeys/canokey-manager#1.

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Compatibility
  • Firmware version 4.0.0 is now recognized against the established 3.1.0 compatibility profile for applicable capability checks, including PIV slot support and P1363-formatted SM2 signatures.
  • Version 4.0.0 no longer receives a warning that it is newer than known compatibility data. Other unrecognized firmware versions continue to report capability support as unknown.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Selected firmware compatibility checks now treat version 4.0.0 as matching the 3.1.0 profile. Tests cover its capability behavior and verify unknown capability results for other specified firmware versions.

Change: Feature

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 29d02

Firmware 4.0.0 behavior appears consistent with the intended profile. The development-build warning test can be strengthened, but this does not currently block use.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🔵 Low · up to 29d02

The change recognizes one numeric firmware base version and preserves existing access checks. No authentication bypass was established, but the device-side authorization and recovery behavior of the newly enabled commands is not independently demonstrated.

Retained concerns

• Low · security · inferred: The shared profile now permits modern state-changing operations for a reported 4.0.0 numeric base, including suffixed development builds. This relies on equivalence with the 3.1 device-side authorization and recovery contract, which the available evidence does not independently establish. Host-side guards remain intact; this is a compatibility assurance gap, not a verified bypass.

Security review details

Security Blast Radius

• inferred — The concrete traced exposure is caller-selected device operations affecting keys, certificates, PIN/PUK credentials, and configuration. Reported firmware can now pass gates that previously rejected 4.0.0 as unknown; mutation authority still depends on explicit access or device-enforced preconditions.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

• observed — Unknown and unsupported capability decisions still fail through require(). PIV access sequences SELECT, requested management authentication, and requested PIN verification before the target. Existing access remains an explicit caller choice relying on the current device session, rather than firmware text serving as authentication.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

• observed — The traced PIV access machine propagates selection/authentication failures before target execution and drops management-key/challenge state after successful authentication. These existing safeguards remain applicable to the newly recognized firmware.

Hardening Proposals

• proposed — Associate 4.0.0 support with release-specific firmware evidence covering reset preconditions, authorization after selection, mutation interruption/recovery, and P1363 SM2 output. Distinguish numeric-base compatibility for suffixed builds from authenticated firmware identity.

8-31: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Assert the exact warnings for each firmware input.

For 4.0.0-dev+g12345678, parsing retains a suffix, and from_observations emits DeclaredBaseVersion. Plain 4.0.0 emits no warnings. The current assertion passes if the development warning disappears. The existing transcript test checks this warning for 3.1.0-dev, not the special 4.0.0 case.

Suggested fix

-    for firmware in ["4.0.0", "4.0.0-dev+g12345678"] {
+    for (firmware, expected_warnings) in [
+        ("4.0.0", &[] as &[CompatibilityWarning]),
+        (
+            "4.0.0-dev+g12345678",
+            &[CompatibilityWarning::DeclaredBaseVersion][..],
+        ),
+    ] {
         let profile =
             DeviceProfile::from_observations(DeviceObservations::new(firmware.as_bytes().to_vec()))
                 .unwrap();
         assert_eq!(profile.info().firmware_text(), firmware.as_bytes());
-        assert!(!profile
-            .warnings()
-            .contains(&CompatibilityWarning::LatestKnownFallback));
+        assert_eq!(profile.warnings(), expected_warnings);

Update the firmware cases in the test to pair each input with its expected

`4.0.0` and `DeclaredBaseVersion` for `4.0.0-dev+g12345678`. Replace the current
