[doublegate]

Summary

• ctutils 0.4.3 to 0.4.4 in Cargo.lock (RUSTSEC-2026-0385: non-constant-time mask generation and u128 comparisons). It reaches the kernel through ml-dsa, the package signature verifier.
• CHANGELOG [Unreleased] entry.

The advisory was published 2026-10-23 and fails the Security Audit job on every branch, including PR #30.

Checks

• cargo audit: clean apart from the allowed yanked spin 0.9.8 warning.
• scripts/dev/gate.sh --boot --rootfs on this tree: exit 0.

Note

Low Risk
Lockfile-only patch bump for a known crypto timing advisory; no application logic changes.

Overview
Bumps the transitive dependency ctutils from 0.4.3 to 0.4.4 in Cargo.lock to address RUSTSEC-2026-0385 (non-constant-time mask generation and u128 comparisons in the prior release). That crate is pulled in via ml-dsa, which backs package signature verification in the kernel.

Documents the fix under [Unreleased] → Fixed in CHANGELOG.md so the security audit job can pass on branches that were failing on the advisory.
