Description

Debug output exposes NIP-46 and NIP-60 credentials

Several NIP-46 and NIP-60 types used derived Debug implementations even though

their fields contained credentials or decrypted application data. Formatting these

values exposed NIP-46 connection secrets and request parameters, as well as NIP-60

private keys, Cashu bearer proofs, and quote capability identifiers.

Applications commonly include Debug output in diagnostic logs, tracing spans, or

error reports. Anyone able to read those outputs could recover the disclosed

credentials and, depending on the value, impersonate a signer connection or spend

wallet tokens. The issue does not expose data unless an affected value is formatted

and the resulting output is made accessible.

The affected types now use custom Debug implementations that preserve variant and

non-sensitive structural information while replacing credentials, bearer values,

and plaintext fields with redaction markers. Serialization and protocol behavior are

unchanged.

How this vulnerability can be exploited

This issue can be reached with local access to the system, attack complexity is low, an attacker needs low-level privileges on the target. No user interaction is required. The scope is unchanged, so the impact stays within the vulnerable component. Rated impact: confidentiality high, integrity none, availability none.
