The first time it does preliminary checks it says hash is different to what it then goes straight through CheckProofOfWork()…

hash=d31a46d558974e7b07c6f63a594bfba0fa435659ebca05108f669f58a6d34cfc

Neoscrypt is little endian, may be a byte swap will do the trick.

Was fighting with that for p2pool already.

Here is the python code snippet to get it running in p2pool.

 getwork._swap4(pack.IntType(256).pack(x['previous_block'])).encode('hex'), # prevhash
        x['coinb1'].encode('hex'), # coinb1
        x['coinb2'].encode('hex'), # coinb2
        [pack.IntType(256).pack(s).encode('hex') for s in x['merkle_link']['branch']], # merkle_branch
        getwork._swap4(pack.IntType(32).pack(x['version'])).encode('hex'), # version
        getwork._swap4(pack.IntType(32).pack(x['bits'].bits)).encode('hex'), # nbits
        getwork._swap4(pack.IntType(32).pack(x['timestamp'])).encode('hex'), # ntime

Definition of swap4:

def _swap4(s):
if len(s) % 4:
    raise ValueError()
return ''.join(s[x:x+4][::-1] for x in xrange(0, len(s), 4))

Not sure, how to realize that in C++

Testing 0.9.6.2- head

@Wellenreiter @Bushstar
I have tested head and am unable to compile with --qrcodes=yes

undefined reference to ` QRCodeDialog::QRCodeDialog(QString const&, QString const&, bool, QWidget*)’

Wellenreiter

try --with-gui=qt5

qt4 support is broken in 0.9x, but tested first and then selected by configure.

wrapper

I am compiling with the standard switches, exactly the same as before, except now qrcodes=no

./configure --with-gui=qt5 --enable-tests=no --enable-upnp-default --with-qrcode=no --enable-wallet=yes --enable-shared --disable-hardening LDFLAGS=“-L${BDB_PREFIX}/lib/” CPPFLAGS=“-I${BDB_PREFIX}/include/” CXXFLAGS=“$CXXFLAGS -fPIC -m64 -std=c++11”

Wellenreiter

Then check, if you have a qrcodedialog in the …/qt/forms directory.

wrapper

Fixed.

~~I’ve git cloned from head. There is nothing missing and I haven’t done anything to it except add my build.sh and change my compile to qrcodes=no to get it compile…~~

Bitcoin 0.9.x Backports 2

#68

https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/commit/0a94661e8db94e84ecbf1ea45a51fb3c7fb77283

Disable SSLv3 (in favor of TLS) for the RPC client and server.

TLS is subject to downgrade attacks when SSLv3 is available, and
SSLv3 has vulnerabilities.

The popular solution is to disable SSLv3. On the web this breaks
some tiny number of very old clients. While Bitcoin RPC shouldn’t
be exposed to the open Internet, it also shouldn’t be exposed to
really old SSL implementations, so it shouldn’t be a major issue
for us to disable SSLv3.

There is more information on the downgrade attacks and disabling
SSLv3 at https://disablessl3.com/ .

src/rpcclient.cpp#L43

-  context.set_options(ssl::context::no_sslv2);

+  context.set_options(ssl::context::no_sslv2 | ssl::context::no_sslv3);

Consensus: guard against openssl’s new strict DER checks

 0.9 (#106)

New versions of OpenSSL will reject non-canonical DER signatures. However,
it’ll happily decode them. Decode then re-encode before verification in order
to ensure that it is properly consumed.

Todo / Test : Compare with @ghostlanders FTC 0.8.4 version?

Re: @looarn

Here what I found today, don’t know if it’s a known issue ?

Basicly dumpwallet, only dump header, the content of the wallet doesn’t show.

Bitcoin 0.9.3 potential backports to FTC 0.9.6.2

Action: not implemented

consensus: guard against openssl’s new strict DER checks

New versions of OpenSSL will reject non-canonical DER signatures. However,
it’ll happily decode them. Decode then re-encode before verification in order
to ensure that it is properly consumed.

This looks like a worthwhile update to Zxing, gives improved edge detection for QR codes and more java code converted to C++.
