Scope — what is PII, what is NOT

We only consider PII that is sent to third-party services. Any call to our own backend with PII is not considered a data leak.

Every third-party service should be considered, but each has a different risk level. Logging services are the highest risk.

Some information is only PII in context — for example, public addresses are not PII by themselves, but on a logging service such as Datadog, an address can be linked to a location and device, allowing identification of the person behind it.

Crash reports need to be studied alongside logs — they are a common source of data leaks.

Any service that queries the blockchain for an address is not a concern — the query is mandatory for the system to function and the data is not linked to any other identifiable information. This applies to all coin modules. Examples:

• Kaspa → api.kaspa.org
• EVM (Ethereum, BSC, Polygon…) → Etherscan-family
• Tron → TronGrid (api.trongrid.io)

Known third-party sinks in this repo

Prioritize these, but do not exclude others:

• Datadog
• Sentry
• Mixpanel

High-risk variables

Treat any of these as high-risk when found in added lines:

location.pathname, window.location.hash, address, walletAccountId, txId, publicKey, signature, rawData, payinAddress, fromAccountAddress, toAccountAddress, binaryPayload

Process

1. Run git diff develop...HEAD. This is the primary source — start here, not from grep.

1. In added lines, identify:

• Assignments of high-risk variables (see above)
• New calls to third-party sinks or wrappers: track(), trackPage(), logger.*(), captureException()

1. In removed lines, identify:

• Removed guards: confidentialityFilter, scrubbing calls, PII-stripping wrappers — flag each removal as a potential leak enabler.

1. For each high-risk variable in added lines, trace its lineage:

• Check if it flows into a sink call within the diff
• If it may pass through intermediate calls, read the affected file to follow the chain

1. For each new sink call in the diff:

• Read surrounding context in the file
• Follow the call chain to determine what gets serialized
• If the call is a wrapper (e.g. track()), read its implementation — do not assume from the name

1. Use the grep commands below only to trace a pattern already found in the diff. Never run them independently to source findings.

1. Score each finding 1–10. Report only those scoring 7 or higher with a concrete fix.

Grep helpers (investigation only)

location.pathname flowing into track() — pathname often assigned before the call:

bash
find apps \( -name "*.ts" -o -name "*.tsx" \) | grep -vE "\.test\.|/__tests__/|/tests/" | \
  xargs perl -0777 -ne 'BEGIN { exit unless @ARGV } print "$ARGV\n" if /track(?:Page)?\([\s\S]{0,500}?location\.pathname/'

window.location.hash in analytics:

bash
grep -rn "window\.location\.hash" apps/ --include="*.ts" --include="*.tsx"

Address interpolated into new Error(...) in coin modules:

bash
find libs \( -name "*.ts" -o -name "*.tsx" \) | grep -vE "live-e2e-shared|coin-tester-modules|__tests__|tests|\.test\." | \
  xargs perl -0777 -ne 'BEGIN { exit unless @ARGV } print "$ARGV\n" if /new Error\(`[\s\S]{0,300}?\$\{[^}]*(address|sender|hash|walletAccountId|txId|publicKey)[^}]*\}/i'

Signed tx payload on broadcast failure:

bash
grep -rn -E "broadcast_failure|broadcastLogger" apps/ --include="*.ts" | grep -v "\.test\."

Full transaction object spread into analytics:

bash
grep -rn -E "value:[[:space:]]*(params|transaction)\b" apps/ --include="*.ts" --include="*.tsx" \
  | grep -v "\.test\." \
  | grep -vE "value:[[:space:]]*(params|transaction)\."

Signed payload fields in track():

bash
grep -rn -E "binaryPayload|payinAddress|fromAccountAddress|toAccountAddress" libs/ apps/ --include="*.ts" --include="*.tsx" \
  | grep -vE "\.test\.|/__tests__/|/tests/"

confidentialityFilter coverage on trackPage():

bash
find apps/ledger-live-desktop apps/ledger-live-mobile -name "segment.ts" -path "*/analytics/*" | \
  xargs -I{} grep -n -E "confidentialityFilter|trackPage" {}

Output format

• Score mapping: 9-10 → 🔴 Critical, 7–8 → 🟡 Suggestion. Scores below 7 are not reported.
• If no findings reach score 7, produce no output.

🔴 Critical (10/10) — apps/.../useActivityIndicator.ts:39
track("SyncErrorList", { page: location.pathname, ... });
Fix: remove `page` from the payload or replace with a static route label stripped of account IDs.

🟡 Suggestion (8/10) — apps/.../someFile.ts:12
track("Event", { hash: window.location.hash });
Fix: pass only the route segment before the `#`, not the full hash.
