Summary of ChangesHello, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed! This pull request updates the TDF policy binding encoding to comply with the latest specification while maintaining backward compatibility for archival TDFs. By introducing a shared decoding helper, the KAS service can now transparently handle both raw and hex-encoded HMAC bindings. Additionally, the changes include necessary adjustments to the SDK configuration and internal rewrap verification logic to ensure robust and consistent behavior across different TDF versions.

package(policyJSON:) embeds the caller's policy (base64) and computes the binding via the OpenTDF SDK (TDFCrypto.policyBinding) over the base64-policy string — the spec form Base64(HMAC) the platform KAS verifies (rewrap.go VerifyBinding; opentdf/platform#3597). This also corrects the placeholder (nil-policy) path, which previously HMAC'd the RAW policy bytes — rejected by the KAS regardless of digest encoding. Default nil preserves the placeholder policy shape. Unblocks arkavo-org/Creator#4 HLS tier gating. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Compare the normalized policy binding with the expected HMAC.
The fake KAS does not validate policy bindings. After Base64 decoding, hex-decode the legacy value when config.useHex is true, then compare it with ocrypto.CalculateSHA256Hmac(payloadKey, []byte(r.Manifest().Policy)).

Source: Coding guidelines
The reader decided whether integrity digests were hex or raw by testing
whether the manifest carried a spec version:
isLegacyTDF := r.manifest.TDFVersion == ""
That only ever worked because our own writer sets useHex and
excludeVersionFromManifest from one boolean, making "field present" mean "raw
digests" for files we produced. Nothing authenticates the field, and writers
that decoupled the two -- including every writer that emitted the off-spec
tdf_spec_version name -- break the correspondence.
The consequence was that the spelling and value of an unauthenticated metadata
field decided whether a well-formed container could be read at all. Reading
tdf_spec_version, added earlier on this branch, made it worse: a hex-digest
container carrying that field would be verified as raw and rejected.
Replace the flag with digestMatchesRecorded, which compares a recomputed raw
digest against the manifest value in both spellings. This is the approach
opentdf#3597 took for the policy binding, where the two encodings are distinguished
by length "so no version signal is needed". Accepting both weakens nothing:
hex is an invertible encoding of the same HMAC, so forging either form still
requires the payload key.
The assertion path cannot use length, since the hash is concatenated into a
larger buffer before signing and leaves no distinguishable trace. It builds
both candidates and accepts either, sound on the same grounds.
The writer is unchanged and still honors WithTargetMode; the bool those
helpers take is renamed useHex to say what it actually selects.
Test_SpecVersionDoesNotAffectVerification covers raw and hex containers
against every spelling of the field, its absence, and a value that
contradicts the digests. Four of its cases fail without this change.

The chunked segment writer landed on main after this branch was cut and calls the same createPolicyBinding helper, so it inherited the same always-hex binding. Thread its useHex through so the binding matches the target mode the rest of its signatures already honor. Teach the chunked fake KAS to dual-accept both encodings the way the real KAS does, and pin the binding encoding in both target-mode tests. Also verify the binding value, not just its shape, in Test_SimpleTDF.

88 × "failure to verify policy binding" in the KAS logs. Every test that encrypts with this branch's SDK fails against an older KAS, regardless of the decrypting SDK. (The negative tests — test_tdf_with_altered_policy_binding, test_tdf_with_unbound_policy — pass, because they expect a rejection anyway.)
Why — the rollout note in the description is not accurate
The description says:
Platform KAS dual-accept has been in place since May 2025 (#2095).
Dual-accept was attempted, but the raw branch has never actually worked. From the released service/v0.9.0 (service/kas/access/rewrap.go:597):
policyBinding := make([]byte, base64.StdEncoding.DecodedLen(len(policyBindingB64Encoded)))
n, err := base64.StdEncoding.Decode(policyBinding, []byte(policyBindingB64Encoded))
// ...
if n == 64 { // hex path: policyBinding is REPLACED with a correctly-sized slice
dehexed := make([]byte, hex.DecodedLen(n))
_, err = hex.Decode(dehexed, policyBinding[:n])
if err == nil { policyBinding = dehexed }
}
// raw path (n == 32): policyBinding is NEVER trimmed to n
dek.VerifyBinding(ctx, []byte(req.GetPolicy().GetBody()), policyBinding)For a raw binding the base64 is 44 chars, so DecodedLen(44) allocates 33 bytes while n is 32. The hex branch replaces the slice with a right-sized one; the raw branch passes the untrimmed 33-byte buffer straight through. AESProtectedKey.VerifyBinding does hmac.Equal(actualHMAC /*32*/, policyBinding /*33*/), which is length-sensitive and therefore always false.
This is precisely the "latent bug ... untrimmed buffer" this PR already claims to fix — but the consequence is bigger than the description implies: no released KAS can accept a raw binding. The fix has to be deployed on the KAS side before any SDK in the fleet starts emitting raw bindings. pull-3597 × go@pull-3597 passes only because that platform carries this PR's own fix.
What this means for merging
The KAS half of this PR (decodePolicyBinding) is strictly a fix and safe to land on its own. The SDK half flips the default writer encoding, and that is a breaking change against every currently-deployed KAS — so it is a rollout-sequencing decision, not a code-review one.
I've left the change intact rather than making that call in a rebase. Worth deciding between:
- Split — land the KAS dual-accept fix now, flip the SDK default in a follow-up once a fixed KAS is broadly deployed. Makes xtest green immediately.
- Hold — keep the PR as-is and block merge until fixed-KAS deployment is confirmed, treating the two red cells as an intentional signal.
Same caveat applies to the Java and JS writers when they're fixed, and the same untrimmed-buffer bug should be checked for in any third-party KAS.
