# dalek-ed25519-verified Formal verification of the ed25519 implementation in **dalek-cryptography/curve25519-dalek (upstream, v5.0.0-rc.1)**, built as a coherent proof pyramid in Lean 4 via the Charon/Aeneas transpilation pipeline: ``` ┌──────────────────────────────┐ │ Signature (EdDSA verify) │ accepted ⇒ [8][S]B = [8]R + [8][k]A ├──────────────────────────────┤ │ Scalar arithmetic mod ℓ │ Scalar52 ops correct mod ℓ ├──────────────────────────────┤ │ Group law (twisted Edwards) │ point ops = complete addition law ├──────────────────────────────┤ │ Field 𝔽_p, p = 2²⁵⁵ − 19 │ FieldElement51 ops correct mod p └──────────────────────────────┘ ``` Every layer states its theorems about the **actual Aeneas-transpiled Rust code** (never about a hand-written re-model), and every claim in the status table below is backed by a compiled proof plus an axiom audit of the named certificate. Files that do not compile under `verification/check.sh` are not in this repository. ## Layer status | Layer | Certificate | Status | Axioms of certificate | |-------|-------------|--------|-----------------------| | Field 𝔽_p | `fieldImplementation` | ✅ proven | `[propext, Classical.choice, Quot.sound]` | | Group law (Edwards) | `edwardsImplementation` | ✅ proven | `[propext, Classical.choice, Quot.sound]` | | Scalar mod ℓ | `scalarImplementation` | ⏳ in progress | — | | Signature (EdDSA) | `verifyEquation` | ⏳ in progress | — | Status legend: ✅ proven & axiom-audited · ⏳ in progress · ❌ not started. This table is updated only when `verification/check.sh` passes for the layer. ## Source - **Upstream**: [dalek-cryptography/curve25519-dalek](https://github.com/dalek-cryptography/curve25519-dalek), commit `4cf8db2` - **Pinned/patched source**: [saymrwulf/curve25519-dalek-source](https://github.com/saymrwulf/curve25519-dalek-source), commit `135ed70` - **Patches**: minimal Aeneas-compatibility only (documented in the source repo) - Verified backend: `backend/serial/u64` (`FieldElement51`, `Scalar52`). SIMD/AVX backends are out of scope (marked opaque). ## Toolchain (pinned) | Component | Version | |-----------|---------| | Aeneas | `bf13c42e` | | Charon | `9dd7f23c` | | Lean | `v4.30.0-rc2` | | OCaml | `5.3.0` | ## Reproducing ```bash source ~/aeneas-toolchain/env.sh cd verification ./extract.sh # Rust → LLBC → Lean (regenerates gen/) ./check.sh # compiles EVERY shipped file + axiom-audits EVERY certificate ``` ## Trusted base See [TRUSTED-BASE.md](TRUSTED-BASE.md) for the complete list of assumptions (Lean kernel, mathlib, Charon/Aeneas semantics, external-function models, and — in the signature layer only — an opaque SHA-512 model). ## Provenance Proof engineering in this repository builds on the verification methodology and proof architecture of [PlanetMacro/ed25519-verificationtest](https://github.com/PlanetMacro/ed25519-verificationtest) (the reference solution). All proofs here are checked against **this fork's own extracted code**; nothing is claimed that the check script does not compile.
