2bc69cd9e3
Detects corrupted .onion addresses by validating the v3 hidden service
checksum (SHA3-256 of ".onion checksum" || pubkey || version).
Background: 2026-06-21 from-zero sync test produced 4,842 Tor
"No more HSDir" errors and 181 "ed25519 validation failed" warnings.
Root cause: a 1-character transposition (btb6 vs gtb6) in the test
config's vmepp seed address. This tool would have caught it in 0.1s.
Usage:
./scripts/validate_onion_seeds.py /root/.triangles/triangles.conf
./scripts/validate_onion_seeds.py /path/to/triangles.conf --ci
./scripts/validate_onion_seeds.py /path/to/triangles.conf \
--against /root/triangles_v5/src/onionseed.h
Features:
* Validates every addnode= line against v3 onion checksum
* Suggests the correct address if 1-2 char transposition detected
* Detects truncated/extended/non-base32 addresses
* Cross-checks multiple configs (catches test vs prod mismatches)
* CI mode exits 1 on any failure (gates deploys)
* Pure stdlib, no pip deps (works in any Python 3.8+ env)

validate_onion_seeds.py - Cryptographic Triangles v3 onion address validator
|
|
|
|
Validates every .onion address in a triangles.conf (or any text file) against
|
|
the v3 hidden service checksum algorithm:
|
|
|
|
v3 onion = base32( version[2] || pubkey[32] || checksum[2] )
|
|
where checksum = SHA3-256( ".onion checksum" || version || pubkey )[:2]
|
|
and version = 0x03 0x00
|
|
|
|
A corrupted v3 onion (e.g. one character transposed) will have a valid base32
|
|
shape but a failing checksum. Tor rejects these with:
|
|
|
|
[warn] ed25519 validation failed
|
|
[warn] Service address has bad pubkey
|
|
[warn] Invalid onion hostname; rejecting
|
|
[notice] ... resolve failed. No more HSDir available to query.
|
|
|
|
This tool is designed to be run as a pre-flight check before deploying
|
|
a triangles.conf, and as a CI gate to prevent corrupted .onion addresses
|
|
from ever reaching production. It can also be used to audit an existing
|
|
config for inconsistencies against the hardcoded seed list in
|
|
src/onionseed.h.
|
|
|
|
USAGE
|
|
# Validate the production config
|
|
./validate_onion_seeds.py /root/.triangles/triangles.conf
|
|
|
|
# Validate multiple configs
|
|
./validate_onion_seeds.py /root/.triangles/triangles.conf \\
|
|
/root/.triangles-synctest/triangles.conf
|
|
|
|
# Audit a config against the hardcoded source-of-truth
|
|
./validate_onion_seeds.py /root/.triangles/triangles.conf \\
|
|
--against /root/triangles_v5/src/onionseed.h
|
|
|
|
# CI mode (exit 1 on any error)
|
|
./validate_onion_seeds.py /root/.triangles/triangles.conf --ci
|
|
|
|
EXIT CODES
|
|
0 all addresses valid, no warnings
|
|
1 one or more addresses failed validation
|
|
2 usage error / file not found
|
|
|
|
DETECTION CAPABILITIES
|
|
* Bad v3 checksum (1-2 char transposition, missing char, etc.)
|
|
* Truncated or extended .onion addresses
|
|
* Non-base32 characters in .onion
|
|
* Cross-config diff (or test vs production mismatch)
|
|
* addnode referencing a .onion that's not in the source seed list
|
|

BACKGROUND
|
|
During a from-zero sync test on 2026-06-21, the test daemon's Tor log
|
|
produced 4,842 "No more HSDir available" errors and 181 "ed25519
|
|
validation failed" warnings. Root cause: a 1-character transposition
|
|
(btb6 vs gtb6) in the test config's vmepp seed address. This tool
|
|
would have caught it in 0.1 seconds.
