Hardening Phases

Phase 1: SHA3-256 Audit Chain

PQ-Safe

Replaced ring::SHA256 with sha3::Sha3_256 in the security audit log hash chain. Every audit entry now uses a post-quantum safe hash function.

Before

ring::digest::SHA256

After

sha3::Sha3_256

File

audit/mod.rs

Tests

10/10

Phase 2: STUN-Layer Rate Limiting

Done

DashMap-based per-IP token bucket rate limiter on the STUN/TURN hot path. Lock-free for zero contention on UDP packet processing.

Binding Limit

100/sec per IP

Allocate Limit

10/min per IP

Data Structure

DashMap (lock-free)

Tests

9/9

Phase 3: WebSocket Hardening

Done

Origin header validation, Bearer token authentication, payload size enforcement, and SDP size limits on the signaling WebSocket.

Origin Validation

Configurable allowlist

Auth

Bearer / ?token=

WS Payload Max

100 KB

SDP Max

64 KB

Phase 4: H33 PQ Credential Wiring

Dilithium

Every TURN allocation now receives a Dilithium-signed post-quantum credential. ExpandedSigner pre-computes NTT keys at startup for ~60µs signing (vs ~244µs cold). Fail-open: standard HMAC auth continues if H33 is unavailable.

Signing

ML-DSA-65 (Dilithium)

Latency

~60µs (ExpandedSigner)

Verification

0.085µs (cached ZKP)

Design

Fail-open

Phase 5: SRTP Enforcement

Done

All relay data paths now validate packets are encrypted (SRTP/SRTCP). Plaintext RTP is dropped. Conservative heuristic: STUN, DTLS, and unknown protocols pass through.

Validation

is_likely_srtp()

RTP Min Size

23 bytes (12 hdr + 1 + 10 auth)

RTCP Min Size

26 bytes

Tests

8/8

Phase 6: API Key SHA3-256

PQ-Safe

API key hashing upgraded from ring::SHA256 to SHA3-256. Resistant to Grover's algorithm quantum speedup on hash preimage.

Before

ring::digest::SHA256

After

sha3::Sha3_256

File

apikey/mod.rs

Tests

8/8

Phase 7: Dilithium Webhook Signatures

Dilithium

Webhook payloads now dual-signed: HMAC-SHA256 (backward compat) + Dilithium ML-DSA-65 (post-quantum). Customers verify with our public key — no shared secret leakage risk.

Primary Sig

Dilithium ML-DSA-65

Fallback Sig

HMAC-SHA256

Header

X-Webhook-Signature-PQ

Tests

26/26

Phase 8: STUN Nonce SHA3 Hardening

PQ-Safe

STUN nonces now derived from SHA3-256(timestamp || 16 random bytes). Prevents nonce prediction attacks that could bypass TURN authentication challenges.

Before

{hex_timestamp}-{uuid8}

After

SHA3-256(ts || random16)

Entropy

128 bits random
