chore(crypto): replace `int` by `size_t` for nonnegative parameters

This commit is a code-quality cleanup that changes many function parameters from signed integers (`int`) to unsigned size types (`size_t`) where only non-negative lengths or sizes make sense. It also removes some now-unnecessary negative-v…

Defensive type narrowing from signed `int` to unsigned `size_t` for buffer lengths and sizesRemoval of negative-length checks that become logically unnecessary with `size_t`Assertion added in `bn_format` to guard pointer/length arithmetic

refactor(core): improve monero typing

This is a code cleanup and type-safety refactor for the Monero parts of the Trezor firmware. It adds stricter type hints, asserts that certain values are not missing, and fixes a minor return-value bug in a helper that encrypts data. There…

chore(crypto): improve constant-time comparison

This commit hardens how Trezor compares secret values (passwords, PINs, cryptographic tags, and checksums) so that an attacker cannot learn information by measuring how long the comparison takes. It also adds a fault-injection check: if a …

Replaces non-constant-time memcmp with constant-time consteq in cryptographic tag verification paths (AES-GCM, Poly1305, base58 checksums, ed25519 signature verification, SLIP25 MAC)Adds volatile loop counter and loop-completion fault check in consteq to mitigate fault-injection skipping of the comparisonIntroduces tc_fault_handler() abstraction; production builds map it to a fatal error, while a no-op fallback is provided for tests/unconfigured builds

chore(trezorlib): fix `BootloaderV2Image` handling in `firmware_headers.py`
