1. **9A — Crash/debug build policy and operational profiles — In progress; hardware pending.** `src/security_build_policy.c` requires `CONFIG_ESP_COREDUMP_ENABLE_TO_NONE=y` and `CONFIG_ESP_SYSTEM_PANIC_SILENT_REBOOT=y`; rejects core-dump enable/flash/UART, panic print/halt/GDBstub, runtime GDBstub and ESP/FreeRTOS debugger-aware options. `sdkconfig.defaults` makes the baseline explicit. Development/test/production use the same build baseline, not separate PlatformIO environments. Host matrix (`python3 tests/security_build_policy/run.py`) compiles the actual guard: 17 cases plus the generated-header check passed on 2026-09-15. `pio run` passed (94,196 B linked RAM / 1,828,565 B flash); target panic/recovery tests have not run. Production readiness remains pending.
2. **9B — SSH admission and credential handling — Implemented; combined target validation deferred.** Boot-lifetime, owner-only token buckets independently bound handshakes, password/signed-key requests and unsigned probes; reconnect/restart/counter clearing do not replenish them. Existing per-slot attempt limits/currentness remain. Explicit keyboard-interactive rejection, pending-signature result fencing, secret-free admission counters, consumed admin-buffer wipes and fail-closed hidden-prompt overflow/unsupported-byte handling are implemented. Four focused suites (including 35 pinned-vendor control-flow cases), 11 related regressions and `pio run` passed on 2026-09-15: 94,340 B linked RAM / 1,829,925 B flash. Global-budget starvation remains a documented tradeoff, not a solved availability problem.
3. **9C — Library cleanup and protocol policy — Implemented; combined target validation deferred.** Exact-hash build-tree overrides correct HTTPS cleanup/leaks, HTTPD scratch failure/wiping/first-read handling, bounded SSH password parsing/wiping and server-local TLS policy without modifying installed dependencies. Secure wolfSSL allocation hooks and explicit SSH policy fail closed; early web quota probing avoids receiving already-throttled bodies. TLS1.2 ECDHE-ECDSA AES-GCM and SSH GCM/modern-KEX allowlists intentionally exclude legacy-only clients; no identity migration. Bounded password/certificate/header/destructor review is documented, not exhaustive zeroization. Final build PASS 94,340 B linked RAM / 1,831,309 B flash; focused and related host/source-contract tests passed. [Review and maintenance contract](security_library_review.md).
4. **9D — Maintenance and lifecycle — In progress; unresolved security and distribution questions.** [Security operations](security_operations.md) documents provisioning, explicit saves, rotation, recovery, reconstruction (no implemented backup/export) and approved destructive reset/decommissioning. The [wolfSSL/wolfSSH implementation addendum](wolf_security_review.md) records the implemented Xtensa small X25519/Ed25519 mitigation (CVE-2025-12888), with consistent library/consumer flags and a resolved-settings guard; small X25519 is not combined with blinding. Bounded IGNORE/service/string parsing, channel-window overflow, ECC/Ed25519 labels and exact signature framing are now corrected in the existing generated override. [P-256 import and X25519 all-zero-result checks](ssh_key_validation_review.md) are enabled with effective PUBLIC flags confirmed; the [finite remaining SSH parser/caller review](ssh_parser_remaining_review.md) is complete, not exhaustive safety. Exact CHANNEL_FAILURE recipient, `ssh-userauth` service and all nine channel-name checks are implemented; unknown/trailing-payload behavior is retained. PR899 client skips remain unchanged behind server ordering, forwarding is disabled, and the inspected generic caller trace has no short-digest/OID trigger; generic APIs are not globally fixed. **Restricted existing-profile ordering correction (CVE-2025-14942) is implemented**, using audited PR793/819/840/855/921 subsets plus local gates, not a full upstream backport. X25519/P-256 only, independent SELF/PEER bits, expected-message/authentication gates and queued NEWKEYS continuation handle nonblocking writes. **EXT_INFO is intentionally disabled; no `server-sig-algs` is advertised.** Eight C overrides plus one PUBLIC forced ABI header retain hash pins/notices; joined forced-header arguments fix PlatformIO sorting/deduplication. The review's misplaced EOF guard is corrected and verified with no scoped blocker. The [IDF implementation addendum](idf_security_review.md) records pinned DHCP (CVE-2026-45160), TLS 1.2 EMS (CVE-2026-50581) and X.509 allocation-failure (CVE-2026-34874) backports; historical research remains labeled and retained. The [finite IDF applicability completion](idf_security_review.md#finite-applicability-completion--2026-09-16) dispositions all six named findings: ECDH small-output, zero-length ECC PK parse, basicConstraints, server NewSessionTicket and stale ASN.1 length are not current paths/configurations for their documented reasons; optimized ECC reduction is active but its privileged-local/physical side-channel attacker model is excluded. No new current-path correction was established. Only the first advisory-index page was screened; unpatched primitives and broader coverage remain, not “all CVEs safe.”

The subsequent [finite dependency coverage](dependency_advisory_coverage.md) accounts for all **22 IDF entries across three pages**, plus named managed-component and browser publication channels. The declared dated search is complete, not exhaustive advisory clearance; unpatched primitives, inaccessible full-release databases and fresh findings remain.
**Latest integration evidence:** supplied parent build PASS: **94,340 B linked RAM / 1,768,901 B flash**, unchanged RAM / **+200 B flash** versus 1,768,701 B. Final parent **all seven suites PASS**: ordering `--interop` (8,028 checks, seven rejected mutations, 12 exact-256-KiB sessions with clean channel close/transport EOF), SDK overrides with actual `--build-dir` registration, auth (135), protocol, strict crypto, notices (30), and parser (3,258 × two modes plus channel profiles; 11 + 18 + 2 rejected mutations). Interop required unsandboxed approval only for local AF_UNIX sockets; no remote network/device operation. Agent ordering evidence: **8,028 checks / seven rejected mutations**. Initial interop failed a harness close race despite early PASS output; the corrected harness waits for peer close/transport EOF and independently reaps the server through an fd-passing proxy. Final agent repeated OpenSSH matrix: **36/36 sessions**, each exact **256 KiB**, **two or ten** completed key exchanges and clean client/server exits; see [evidence and limits](security_hardening.md#ordering-hostbuild-evidence--2026-09-16).
**Release status:** the [bounded license inventory](dependency_licenses.md) marks modification/date notices resolved for all eight generated C files plus one header (baseline 2026-09-15 and wolfSSH ordering 2026-09-16; upstream licenses retained), with archived patch hashes/commits and patch license context recorded, but radio-blob corresponding-source/exception, source/notice delivery and provenance questions remain open. [Offline notice assembly](release_packaging.md) is implemented by [tools/release_notices.py](../tools/release_notices.py): 62 mandatory hash/size-pinned inputs, deterministic bounded outputs, fail-closed preflight and no overwrite/fetch/build/device access. Parent notices suite: 30 PASS. Supplied independent review found no actionable scoped parser/bundle defects and verified two actual 62-input bundles were deterministic. The previously measured actual bundle was 64 files / 541,147 bytes; that is snapshot evidence, not a newly measured bundle size or legal clearance.

[Offline notice assembly](release_packaging.md) is implemented by [tools/release_notices.py](../tools/release_notices.py): 75 mandatory hash/size-pinned inputs, deterministic bounded outputs, fail-closed preflight and no overwrite/fetch/build/device access. Supplied agent evidence: **36 notice fixture tests PASS; two actual bundles verified deterministic, each 77 files / 4,433,930 bytes**. This includes retained SVGs and [exact icon provenance](icon_provenance.md), not corresponding-source delivery or legal clearance. These are agent measurements, not a parent rebuild or reassembly in this documentation turn.
**Remaining maintenance/target gates:** official registry wolfSSH 1.5.0 / wolfSSL 5.9.2 queries returned 404 on 2026-09-15; upstream tags exist but managed compatibility is not established. The [remaining ordering gates and immutable provenance](wolf_security_review.md#restricted-ordering-correction-and-remaining-gates) retain target cleanup during rekey, intended-client compatibility without EXT_INFO and whole-phase resource/timing validation. Future upstream adoption still requires isolated packaging/compatibility evaluation. Upgrades/backports require coherent source/header review, override rebasing and contract tests, not blind repinning. Broader dependency advisory coverage remains unfinished. No dependency upgrade was performed. **Phase 9 is not complete or production-ready; scoped mitigations do not establish full advisory closure, device validation or license/distribution clearance.** OTA signing trust remains separate Phase 10 work.

The [declared finite dependency search](dependency_advisory_coverage.md) is complete; fresh findings and explicit coverage gaps remain. **Current PMF-capable SoftAP security blocker: not fixed.** Follow the [Wi-Fi security update plan](wifi_security_update_plan.md): select a coherent vendor framework/toolchain and source/header/binary ABI bundle, rebase exact security overrides and validate on target; do not transplant one archive, edit only the callback signature or weaken PMF/WPA3. No dependency upgrade was performed. **Phase 9 is not complete or production-ready; scoped mitigations do not establish full advisory closure, device validation or license/distribution clearance.** OTA signing trust remains separate Phase 10 work.
**Bounded host validation:** [tools/validate_phase9.py](../tools/validate_phase9.py) orchestrates **23 commands** by default, with no build or OpenSSH interop unless separately opted in. The stale console-boundary anchor was fixed by its owning agent; supplied follow-up agent result is **23/23 PASS**. Final supplied parent execution: `CCACHE_DISABLE=1 python3 -B tools/validate_phase9.py` **PASS 23/23**; `tests/phase9_validation/run.py` **PASS 10 tests**. No build or interop ran this turn. See [usage and execution boundaries](phase9_validation.md). No parent rebuild this turn; firmware source is unchanged. Historical build/interop results above are not fresh target or release evidence.
At the user's request, hardware validation is deferred to **Phase 9 as a whole**, not required between implementation slices. [Security hardening](security_hardening.md) collects profiles, host evidence and the combined target checklist. Silent panic reboot removes useful crash diagnostics, not ordinary reset/boot/status information or every possible log disclosure. Raw flash/RAM/dumps remain secret-bearing, not routine diagnostic exports. Existing coredump bytes are not retroactively cleared; no secure erase is claimed. Isolated synthetic-secret debug builds require explicit reviewed source-policy changes, not a provided bypass flag.
