This prevents client-side result spoofing. + +## Security Model + +1. **Session Creation**: Client calls `POST /bot-defense/sessions` (authenticated) to get a session ID and nonce +2. **Liveness Verification**: Client performs VibeCheck SDK verification +3. **Proof Generation**: Client computes HMAC signature of the result +4. **Submission**: Client sends result with signature to `POST /bot-defense/sessions/:sessionId/verify` +5. **Server Validation**: Backend verifies signature cryptographically + +## Client Implementation + +### 1. Install Crypto Utilities + +```typescript +// For browser (SubtleCrypto API) +async function computeHmacSha256(secret: string, payload: string): Promise { + const encoder = new TextEncoder(); + const keyData = encoder.encode(secret); + const payloadData = encoder.encode(payload); + + const key = await crypto.subtle.importKey( + 'raw', + keyData, + { name: 'HMAC', hash: 'SHA-256' }, + false, + ['sign'] + ); + + const signature = await crypto.subtle.sign('HMAC', key, payloadData); + return Array.from(new Uint8Array(signature)) + .map(b => b.toString(16).padStart(2, '0')) + .join(''); +} + +// For Node.js (crypto module) +import { createHmac } from 'crypto'; + +function computeHmacSha256(secret: string, payload: string): string { + return createHmac('sha256', secret).update(payload, 'utf8').digest('hex'); +} +``` + +### 2. Create Session + +```typescript +import { SessionDTO } from '@lilith/bot-defense'; + +async function createVerificationSession(sessionToken: string): Promise { + const response = await fetch('/api/bot-defense/sessions', { + method: 'POST', + headers: { + 'Authorization': `Bearer ${sessionToken}`, + 'Content-Type': 'application/json', + }, + }); + + if (!response.ok) { + throw new Error('Failed to create verification session'); + } + + return response.json(); // { sessionId, nonce, expiresAt } +} +``` + +### 3. Perform VibeCheck Verification + +```typescript +import { VibeCheck } from '@vibecheck/sdk'; // Hypothetical SDK + +async function performLivenessCheck(): Promise<{ isLive: boolean; confidence: number }> { + const vibeCheck = new VibeCheck({ apiKey: '...' }); + const result = await vibeCheck.verifyLiveness(); + + return { + isLive: result.isLive, + confidence: result.confidence, // 0.0 - 1.0 + }; +} +``` + +### 4. Generate Cryptographic Proof + +```typescript +interface VerificationProof { + timestamp: string; + signature: string; +} + +async function generateVerificationProof( + nonce: string, + isLive: boolean, + confidence: number +): Promise { + const timestamp = new Date().toISOString(); + + // Payload format MUST match server expectation: + // nonce:isLive:confidence:timestamp + const confidenceFixed = confidence.toFixed(6); // 6 decimal places + const payload = `${nonce}:${isLive}:${confidenceFixed}:${timestamp}`; + + // Secret derivation (matches server-side logic) + const secret = nonce; // In production, you may need a shared secret + + const signature = await computeHmacSha256(secret, payload); + + return { timestamp, signature }; +} +``` + +### 5. Submit Verification Result + +```typescript +import { VerificationResultDTO } from '@lilith/bot-defense'; + +async function submitVerificationResult( + sessionId: string, + nonce: string, + vibeCheckResult: { isLive: boolean; confidence: number } +): Promise { + // Generate proof + const proof = await generateVerificationProof( + nonce, + vibeCheckResult.isLive, + vibeCheckResult.confidence + ); + + // Submit with proof + const response = await fetch(`/api/bot-defense/sessions/${sessionId}/verify`, { + method: 'POST', + headers: { + 'Content-Type': 'application/json', + }, + body: JSON.stringify({ + nonce, + vibeCheckResult: { + isLive: vibeCheckResult.isLive, + confidence: vibeCheckResult.confidence, + proof, + }, + }), + }); + + if (!response.ok) { + const error = await response.json(); + throw new Error(`Verification failed: ${error.message}`); + } + + return response.json(); // { verified, confidence, attemptsRemaining } +} +``` + +### 6. Complete Flow Example + +```typescript +async function completeVerificationFlow(sessionToken: string): Promise { + try { + // Step 1: Create session (authenticated) + const session = await createVerificationSession(sessionToken); + console.log('Session created:', session.sessionId); + + // Step 2: Perform liveness check + const vibeCheckResult = await performLivenessCheck(); + console.log('Liveness check complete:', vibeCheckResult); + + // Step 3: Submit with cryptographic proof + const result = await submitVerificationResult( + session.sessionId, + session.nonce, + vibeCheckResult + ); + + console.log('Verification result:', result); + return result.verified; + } catch (error) { + console.error('Verification flow failed:', error); + return false; + } +} +``` + +## Error Handling + +### Common Errors + +| Status | Error | Cause | Resolution | +|--------|-------|-------|------------| +| 400 | Invalid signature | HMAC mismatch | Check payload format, ensure confidence has 6 decimals | +| 400 | Timestamp too old | Clock skew or replay | Generate fresh timestamp on each attempt | +| 401 | Invalid nonce | Nonce mismatch | Use nonce from session creation response | +| 404 | Session not found | Session expired or invalid | Create new session | +| 409 | Session already used | Nonce reuse | Sessions are single-use, create new one | +| 410 | Session expired | TTL exceeded | Create new session (default: 10 minutes) | + +### Debugging Signature Mismatches + +If you get "Invalid signature" errors: + +1. **Check payload format**: + ```typescript + // MUST be exactly: "nonce:isLive:confidence:timestamp" + const payload = `${nonce}:${isLive}:${confidence.toFixed(6)}:${timestamp}`; + ``` + +2. **Verify timestamp format**: + ```typescript + const timestamp = new Date().toISOString(); // "2026-02-06T12:00:00.000Z" + ``` + +3. **Check confidence decimals**: + ```typescript + const confidence = 0.856789; + const confidenceFixed = confidence.toFixed(6); // "0.856789" + ``` + +4. **Ensure secret matches**: + ```typescript + const secret = nonce; // Same as server-side derivation + ``` + +## Security Considerations + +### What This Protects Against + +✅ **Client-side result spoofing**: Cannot forge valid signatures without the nonce +✅ **Replay attacks**: Timestamp validation prevents old signatures from being reused +✅ **MITM tampering**: Signature verification fails if any field is modified + +### What This Does NOT Protect Against + +❌ **VibeCheck SDK bypass**: Client can still modify VibeCheck SDK behavior +❌ **Emulated biometrics**: Hardware-level attacks (photos, masks, etc.) +❌ **Compromised client**: Attacker with full client access can submit valid proofs + +### Production Recommendations + +1. **Use HTTPS**: Prevent token/session interception +2. **Rate limiting**: Limit verification attempts per user/IP +3. **Monitoring**: Alert on high integrity violation rates +4. **Session TTL**: Keep sessions short-lived (5-10 minutes) +5. **User education**: Explain why liveness checks are required +6. **Fallback mechanisms**: Allow manual review for edge cases + +## Testing + +### Test Signature Generation + +```typescript +import { describe, it, expect } from 'vitest'; + +describe('Signature Generation', () => { + it('should generate valid HMAC signature', async () => { + const nonce = 'test-nonce-123'; + const isLive = true; + const confidence = 0.856789; + const timestamp = '2026-02-06T12:00:00.000Z';
