Unverified finding
Verification ran but could not confirm this finding. It is shown for review, not as a verified issue.

Guard qc.signers size before indexing.

The code checks members.size() against qc.validMembers.size(). It then indexes qc.signers[i] without a size check. Commitments read from EvoDB were verified through VerifySizes, so this is unlikely to fail. A snapshot-seeded or corrupt record could still cause an out-of-bounds read. Check both vectors.

Proposed fix

-    if (members.size() > qc.validMembers.size()) {
+    if (members.size() > qc.validMembers.size() || members.size() > qc.signers.size()) {
         return nullptr;
     }

Unverified finding
Verification ran but could not confirm this finding. It is shown for review, not as a verified issue.

Verify the signer cache pruning against the cache key.

m_valid_member_signers_cache is keyed by commitment hash and stores the quorum base height. Pruning uses min_height - window. Sessions that gather at an older block than the latest call can see entries evicted and then recomputed. This costs performance only, not correctness. The signing records cache is keyed by block hash, and the result depends on window. Callers use a single window today, so this is safe. Add window to the key if more callers appear.

Include window in the m_signing_records_cache key.

GetSigningRecords(pindex, window) builds its result from window. The cache lookup at Line 873 and the insert at Line 908 use only pindex->GetBlockHash(). A second call with the same pindex and a different window returns the first result unchanged.

The only production caller, ActiveDKGSession::VerifyConnectionAndMinProtoVersions, always passes SIGNING_HISTORY_WINDOW, so this is latent today. The unit test signing_records_window_mining_height_rotation_and_cache already works around it. Every call there uses a different pindex and window pair: 225/33, 227/35, 229/37. A later change that reuses a pindex with another window would silently return wrong history.

Key the cache on both values. For example, use ::SerializeHash(std::make_pair(pindex->GetBlockHash(), window)). The cache's key type is not visible here, so adjust this to match it. Alternatively, drop the window parameter and use a fixed constant.

Proposed fix

-    {
-        LOCK(m_signing_records_mutex);
-        if (std::shared_ptr<const SigningRecords> cached; m_signing_records_cache.get(pindex->GetBlockHash(), cached)) {
-            return cached;
-        }
-    }
+    const uint256 cache_key{::SerializeHash(std::make_pair(pindex->GetBlockHash(), window))};
+    {
+        LOCK(m_signing_records_mutex);
+        if (std::shared_ptr<const SigningRecords> cached; m_signing_records_cache.get(cache_key, cached)) {
+            return cached;
+        }
+    }
...
-    m_signing_records_cache.insert(pindex->GetBlockHash(), ret);
+    m_signing_records_cache.insert(cache_key, ret);

Update GetSigningRecords so both the m_signing_records_cache lookup and insertion use a key that distinguishes pindex->GetBlockHash() and window. Ensure the combined key matches the cache’s declared key type, and keep the lookup and insertion keys consistent.
