Summary
This PR adds digest verification when downloading a blob through the
CADownloadStore, before moving it to the cache. Previously, only the CRC32 of individual pieces was verified during download. The SHA256 of the assembled blob was never checked before being cached under its trusted digest, meaning a malicious peer could poison the cache with content that does not match the requested digest. This PR closes that gap by validating the SHA256 of a blob before the move.Note that this change trades performance for security, as the digest of every blob must now be computed before moving it to the cache.
Digest validation can be opted out of via a dedicated
SkipHashVerificationflag, but this is not recommended.Fixes #638.
