Unfortunately, lnd doesn't force close on errors
(https://github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd/blob/abb1e3463f3a83bbb843d5c399869dbe930ad94f/htlcswitch/link.go#L2119). One of the few ways to get an lnd counterparty to force close is by replicating what they do when restoring static channel backups (SCBs). They send an invalid ChannelReestablish with 0 commitment numbers and an invalid your_last_per_commitment_secret.

Since we received a ChannelReestablish for a channel that doesn't exist, we can assume it's likely the channel closed from our point of view, but it remains open on the counterparty's side. By sending this bogus ChannelReestablish message now as a response to theirs, we trigger them to force close broadcasting their latest state. If the closing transaction from our point of view remains unconfirmed, it'll enter a race with the counterparty's to-be-broadcast latest commitment transaction.


Confirmed locally this will trigger a force close on both sides (LDK <-> LND) after:

  1. Opening a channel
  2. Force closing on the LDK end (LND won't force close on error)
  3. Reconnecting nodes causing LND to send ChannelReestablish first and LDK responding with its own

Can you update the error message "Peer sent a garbage channel_reestablish (usually an lnd node with lost state asking us to force-close for them)"? Otherwise LGTM.

Thoughts on also disconnecting on error/broadcast? This would ensure we also get the counterparty to broadcast whenever we reconnect.

Unfortunately, lnd doesn't force close on errors
(https://github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd/blob/abb1e3463f3a83bbb843d5c399869dbe930ad94f/htlcswitch/link.go#L2119).
One of the few ways to get an lnd counterparty to force close is by
replicating what they do when restoring static channel backups (SCBs).
They send an invalid `ChannelReestablish` with `0` commitment numbers
and an invalid `your_last_per_commitment_secret`.
Since we received a `ChannelReestablish` for a channel that doesn't
exist, we can assume it's likely the channel closed from our point of
view, but it remains open on the counterparty's side. By sending this
bogus `ChannelReestablish` message now as a response to theirs, we
trigger them to force close broadcasting their latest state. If the
closing transaction from our point of view remains unconfirmed, it'll
enter a race with the counterparty's to-be-broadcast latest commitment
transaction.
We do this to ensure that the counterparty will always broadcast their
latest state when we broadcast ours. Usually, they'll do this with the
`error` message alone, but if they don't receive it or ignore it, then
we'll force them to broadcast by sending them a bogus
`channel_reestablish` upon reconnecting. Note that this doesn't apply to
unfunded channels as there is no commitment transaction to broadcast.
Not doing so caused a lock order inversion between the locks
`ChannelManager::best_block` and `ChannelManager::short_to_chan_info`
after the addition of `test_trigger_lnd_force_close`.
It turns out that we were holding the `short_to_chan_info` for longer
than needed when processing HTLC forwards. We only need to acquire it to
quickly obtain channel info, and there aren't any other locks within
`forwarding_channel_not_found` that depend on it being held.

0.0.118 - Oct 23, 2023 - "Just the Twelve Sinks"
API Updates
===========
* BOLT12 sending and receiving is now supported as an alpha feature. You may
run into unexpected issues and will need to have a direct connection with
the offer's blinded path introduction points as messages are not yet routed.
We are seeking feedback from early testers (lightningdevkit#2578, lightningdevkit#2039).
* `ConfirmationTarget` has been rewritten to provide information about the
specific use LDK needs the feerate estimate for, rather than the generic
low-, medium-, and high-priority estimates. This allows LDK users to more
accurately target their feerate estimates (lightningdevkit#2660). For those wishing to
retain their existing behavior, see the table below for conversion.
* `ChainHash` is now used in place of `BlockHash` where it represents the
genesis block (lightningdevkit#2662).
* `lightning-invoice` payment utilities now take a `Deref` to
`AChannelManager` (lightningdevkit#2652).
* `peel_onion` is provided to statelessly decode an `OnionMessage` (lightningdevkit#2599).
* `ToSocketAddrs` + `Display` are now impl'd for `SocketAddress` (lightningdevkit#2636, lightningdevkit#2670)
* `Display` is now implemented for `OutPoint` (lightningdevkit#2649).
* `Features::from_be_bytes` is now provided (lightningdevkit#2640).
For those moving to the new `ConfirmationTarget`, the new variants in terms of
the old mempool/low/medium/high priorities are as follows:
* `OnChainSweep` = `HighPriority`
* `MaxAllowedNonAnchorChannelRemoteFee` = `max(25 * 250, HighPriority * 10)`
* `MinAllowedAnchorChannelRemoteFee` = `MempoolMinimum`
* `MinAllowedNonAnchorChannelRemoteFee` = `Background - 250`
* `AnchorChannelFee` = `Background`
* `NonAnchorChannelFee` = `Normal`
* `ChannelCloseMinimum` = `Background`
Bug Fixes
=========
* Calling `ChannelManager::close_channel[_with_feerate_and_script]` on a
channel which did not exist would immediately hang holding several key
`ChannelManager`-internal locks (lightningdevkit#2657).
* Channel information updates received from a failing HTLC are no longer
applied to our `NetworkGraph`. This prevents a node which we attempted to
route a payment through from being able to learn the sender of the payment.
In some rare cases, this may result in marginally reduced payment success
rates (lightningdevkit#2666).
* Anchor outputs are now properly considered when calculating the amount
available to send in HTLCs. This can prevent force-closes in anchor channels
when sending payments which overflow the available balance (lightningdevkit#2674).
* A peer that sends an `update_fulfill_htlc` message for a forwarded HTLC,
then reconnects prior to sending a `commitment_signed` (thus retransmitting
their `update_fulfill_htlc`) may result in the channel stalling and being
unable to make progress (lightningdevkit#2661).
* In exceedingly rare circumstances, messages intended to be sent to a peer
prior to reconnection can be sent after reconnection. This could result in
undefined channel state and force-closes (lightningdevkit#2663).
Backwards Compatibility
=======================
* Creating a blinded path to receive a payment then downgrading to LDK prior to
0.0.117 may result in failure to receive the payment (lightningdevkit#2413).
* Calling `ChannelManager::pay_for_offer` or
`ChannelManager::create_refund_builder` may prevent downgrading to LDK prior
to 0.0.118 until the payment times out and has been removed (lightningdevkit#2039).
Node Compatibility
==================
* LDK now sends a bogus `channel_reestablish` message to peers when they ask to
resume an unknown channel. This should cause LND nodes to force-close and
broadcast the latest channel state to the chain. In order to trigger this
when we wish to force-close a channel, LDK now disconnects immediately after
sending a channel-closing `error` message. This should result in cooperative
peers also working to confirm the latest commitment transaction when we wish
to force-close (lightningdevkit#2658).
Security
========
0.0.118 expands mitigations against transaction cycling attacks to non-anchor
channels, though note that no mitigations which exist today are considered robust
to prevent the class of attacks.
* In order to mitigate against transaction cycling attacks, non-anchor HTLC
transactions are now properly re-signed before broadcasting (lightningdevkit#2667).

Since we received a ChannelReestablish for a channel that doesn't exist, we can assume it's likely the channel closed from our point of view, but it remains open on the counterparty's side. By sending this bogus ChannelReestablish message now as a response to theirs, we trigger them to force close broadcasting their latest state. If the closing transaction from our point of view remains unconfirmed, it'll enter a race with the counterparty's to-be-broadcast latest commitment transaction.


Confirmed locally this will trigger a force close on both sides (LDK <-> LND) after:

  1. Opening a channel
  2. Force closing on the LDK end (LND won't force close on error)
  3. Reconnecting nodes causing LND to send ChannelReestablish first and LDK responding with its own

Unfortunately, lnd doesn't force close on errors
(https://github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd/blob/abb1e3463f3a83bbb843d5c399869dbe930ad94f/htlcswitch/link.go#L2119).
One of the few ways to get an lnd counterparty to force close is by
replicating what they do when restoring static channel backups (SCBs).
They send an invalid `ChannelReestablish` with `0` commitment numbers
and an invalid `your_last_per_commitment_secret`.
Since we received a `ChannelReestablish` for a channel that doesn't
exist, we can assume it's likely the channel closed from our point of
view, but it remains open on the counterparty's side. By sending this
bogus `ChannelReestablish` message now as a response to theirs, we
trigger them to force close broadcasting their latest state. If the
closing transaction from our point of view remains unconfirmed, it'll
enter a race with the counterparty's to-be-broadcast latest commitment
transaction.
We do this to ensure that the counterparty will always broadcast their
latest state when we broadcast ours. Usually, they'll do this with the
`error` message alone, but if they don't receive it or ignore it, then
we'll force them to broadcast by sending them a bogus
`channel_reestablish` upon reconnecting. Note that this doesn't apply to
unfunded channels as there is no commitment transaction to broadcast.
Not doing so caused a lock order inversion between the locks
`ChannelManager::best_block` and `ChannelManager::short_to_chan_info`
after the addition of `test_trigger_lnd_force_close`.
It turns out that we were holding the `short_to_chan_info` for longer
than needed when processing HTLC forwards. We only need to acquire it to
quickly obtain channel info, and there aren't any other locks within
`forwarding_channel_not_found` that depend on it being held.

0.0.118 - Oct 23, 2023 - "Just the Twelve Sinks"
API Updates
===========
* BOLT12 sending and receiving is now supported as an alpha feature. You may
run into unexpected issues and will need to have a direct connection with
the offer's blinded path introduction points as messages are not yet routed.
We are seeking feedback from early testers (lightningdevkit#2578, lightningdevkit#2039).
* `ConfirmationTarget` has been rewritten to provide information about the
specific use LDK needs the feerate estimate for, rather than the generic
low-, medium-, and high-priority estimates. This allows LDK users to more
accurately target their feerate estimates (lightningdevkit#2660). For those wishing to
retain their existing behavior, see the table below for conversion.
* `ChainHash` is now used in place of `BlockHash` where it represents the
genesis block (lightningdevkit#2662).
* `lightning-invoice` payment utilities now take a `Deref` to
`AChannelManager` (lightningdevkit#2652).
* `peel_onion` is provided to statelessly decode an `OnionMessage` (lightningdevkit#2599).
* `ToSocketAddrs` + `Display` are now impl'd for `SocketAddress` (lightningdevkit#2636, lightningdevkit#2670)
* `Display` is now implemented for `OutPoint` (lightningdevkit#2649).
* `Features::from_be_bytes` is now provided (lightningdevkit#2640).
For those moving to the new `ConfirmationTarget`, the new variants in terms of
the old mempool/low/medium/high priorities are as follows:
* `OnChainSweep` = `HighPriority`
* `MaxAllowedNonAnchorChannelRemoteFee` = `max(25 * 250, HighPriority * 10)`
* `MinAllowedAnchorChannelRemoteFee` = `MempoolMinimum`
* `MinAllowedNonAnchorChannelRemoteFee` = `Background - 250`
* `AnchorChannelFee` = `Background`
* `NonAnchorChannelFee` = `Normal`
* `ChannelCloseMinimum` = `Background`
Bug Fixes
=========
* Calling `ChannelManager::close_channel[_with_feerate_and_script]` on a
channel which did not exist would immediately hang holding several key
`ChannelManager`-internal locks (lightningdevkit#2657).
* Channel information updates received from a failing HTLC are no longer
applied to our `NetworkGraph`. This prevents a node which we attempted to
route a payment through from being able to learn the sender of the payment.
In some rare cases, this may result in marginally reduced payment success
rates (lightningdevkit#2666).
* Anchor outputs are now properly considered when calculating the amount
available to send in HTLCs. This can prevent force-closes in anchor channels
when sending payments which overflow the available balance (lightningdevkit#2674).
* A peer that sends an `update_fulfill_htlc` message for a forwarded HTLC,
then reconnects prior to sending a `commitment_signed` (thus retransmitting
their `update_fulfill_htlc`) may result in the channel stalling and being
unable to make progress (lightningdevkit#2661).
* In exceedingly rare circumstances, messages intended to be sent to a peer
prior to reconnection can be sent after reconnection. This could result in
undefined channel state and force-closes (lightningdevkit#2663).
Backwards Compatibility
=======================
* Creating a blinded path to receive a payment then downgrading to LDK prior to
0.0.117 may result in failure to receive the payment (lightningdevkit#2413).
* Calling `ChannelManager::pay_for_offer` or
`ChannelManager::create_refund_builder` may prevent downgrading to LDK prior
to 0.0.118 until the payment times out and has been removed (lightningdevkit#2039).
Node Compatibility
==================
* LDK now sends a bogus `channel_reestablish` message to peers when they ask to
resume an unknown channel. This should cause LND nodes to force-close and
broadcast the latest channel state to the chain. In order to trigger this
when we wish to force-close a channel, LDK now disconnects immediately after
sending a channel-closing `error` message. This should result in cooperative
peers also working to confirm the latest commitment transaction when we wish
to force-close (lightningdevkit#2658).
Security
========
0.0.118 expands mitigations against transaction cycling attacks to non-anchor
channels, though note that no mitigations which exist today are considered robust
to prevent the class of attacks.
* In order to mitigate against transaction cycling attacks, non-anchor HTLC
transactions are now properly re-signed before broadcasting (lightningdevkit#2667).

One of the few ways to get an lnd counterparty to force close is by replicating what they do when restoring static channel backups (SCBs). They send an invalid ChannelReestablish with 0 commitment numbers and an invalid your_last_per_commitment_secret.

Since we received a ChannelReestablish for a channel that doesn't exist, we can assume it's likely the channel closed from our point of view, but it remains open on the counterparty's side. By sending this bogus ChannelReestablish message now as a response to theirs, we trigger them to force close broadcasting their latest state. If the closing transaction from our point of view remains unconfirmed, it'll enter a race with the counterparty's to-be-broadcast latest commitment transaction.


Confirmed locally this will trigger a force close on both sides (LDK <-> LND) after:

  1. Opening a channel
  2. Force closing on the LDK end (LND won't force close on error)
  3. Reconnecting nodes causing LND to send ChannelReestablish first and LDK responding with its own

Can you update the error message "Peer sent a garbage channel_reestablish (usually an lnd node with lost state asking us to force-close for them)"? Otherwise LGTM.

Thoughts on also disconnecting on error/broadcast? This would ensure we also get the counterparty to broadcast whenever we reconnect.

Unfortunately, lnd doesn't force close on errors
(https://github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd/blob/abb1e3463f3a83bbb843d5c399869dbe930ad94f/htlcswitch/link.go#L2119).
One of the few ways to get an lnd counterparty to force close is by
replicating what they do when restoring static channel backups (SCBs).
They send an invalid `ChannelReestablish` with `0` commitment numbers
and an invalid `your_last_per_commitment_secret`.
Since we received a `ChannelReestablish` for a channel that doesn't
exist, we can assume it's likely the channel closed from our point of
view, but it remains open on the counterparty's side. By sending this
bogus `ChannelReestablish` message now as a response to theirs, we
trigger them to force close broadcasting their latest state. If the
closing transaction from our point of view remains unconfirmed, it'll
enter a race with the counterparty's to-be-broadcast latest commitment
transaction.
We do this to ensure that the counterparty will always broadcast their
latest state when we broadcast ours. Usually, they'll do this with the
`error` message alone, but if they don't receive it or ignore it, then
we'll force them to broadcast by sending them a bogus
`channel_reestablish` upon reconnecting. Note that this doesn't apply to
unfunded channels as there is no commitment transaction to broadcast.
Not doing so caused a lock order inversion between the locks
`ChannelManager::best_block` and `ChannelManager::short_to_chan_info`
after the addition of `test_trigger_lnd_force_close`.
It turns out that we were holding the `short_to_chan_info` for longer
than needed when processing HTLC forwards. We only need to acquire it to
quickly obtain channel info, and there aren't any other locks within
`forwarding_channel_not_found` that depend on it being held.

0.0.118 - Oct 23, 2023 - "Just the Twelve Sinks"
API Updates
===========
* BOLT12 sending and receiving is now supported as an alpha feature. You may
run into unexpected issues and will need to have a direct connection with
the offer's blinded path introduction points as messages are not yet routed.
We are seeking feedback from early testers (lightningdevkit#2578, lightningdevkit#2039).
* `ConfirmationTarget` has been rewritten to provide information about the
specific use LDK needs the feerate estimate for, rather than the generic
low-, medium-, and high-priority estimates. This allows LDK users to more
accurately target their feerate estimates (lightningdevkit#2660). For those wishing to
retain their existing behavior, see the table below for conversion.
* `ChainHash` is now used in place of `BlockHash` where it represents the
genesis block (lightningdevkit#2662).
* `lightning-invoice` payment utilities now take a `Deref` to
`AChannelManager` (lightningdevkit#2652).
* `peel_onion` is provided to statelessly decode an `OnionMessage` (lightningdevkit#2599).
* `ToSocketAddrs` + `Display` are now impl'd for `SocketAddress` (lightningdevkit#2636, lightningdevkit#2670)
* `Display` is now implemented for `OutPoint` (lightningdevkit#2649).
* `Features::from_be_bytes` is now provided (lightningdevkit#2640).
For those moving to the new `ConfirmationTarget`, the new variants in terms of
the old mempool/low/medium/high priorities are as follows:
* `OnChainSweep` = `HighPriority`
* `MaxAllowedNonAnchorChannelRemoteFee` = `max(25 * 250, HighPriority * 10)`
* `MinAllowedAnchorChannelRemoteFee` = `MempoolMinimum`
* `MinAllowedNonAnchorChannelRemoteFee` = `Background - 250`
* `AnchorChannelFee` = `Background`
* `NonAnchorChannelFee` = `Normal`
* `ChannelCloseMinimum` = `Background`
Bug Fixes
=========
* Calling `ChannelManager::close_channel[_with_feerate_and_script]` on a
channel which did not exist would immediately hang holding several key
`ChannelManager`-internal locks (lightningdevkit#2657).
* Channel information updates received from a failing HTLC are no longer
applied to our `NetworkGraph`. This prevents a node which we attempted to
route a payment through from being able to learn the sender of the payment.
In some rare cases, this may result in marginally reduced payment success
rates (lightningdevkit#2666).
* Anchor outputs are now properly considered when calculating the amount
available to send in HTLCs. This can prevent force-closes in anchor channels
when sending payments which overflow the available balance (lightningdevkit#2674).
* A peer that sends an `update_fulfill_htlc` message for a forwarded HTLC,
then reconnects prior to sending a `commitment_signed` (thus retransmitting
their `update_fulfill_htlc`) may result in the channel stalling and being
unable to make progress (lightningdevkit#2661).
* In exceedingly rare circumstances, messages intended to be sent to a peer
prior to reconnection can be sent after reconnection. This could result in
undefined channel state and force-closes (lightningdevkit#2663).
Backwards Compatibility
=======================
* Creating a blinded path to receive a payment then downgrading to LDK prior to
0.0.117 may result in failure to receive the payment (lightningdevkit#2413).
* Calling `ChannelManager::pay_for_offer` or
`ChannelManager::create_refund_builder` may prevent downgrading to LDK prior
to 0.0.118 until the payment times out and has been removed (lightningdevkit#2039).
Node Compatibility
==================
* LDK now sends a bogus `channel_reestablish` message to peers when they ask to
resume an unknown channel. This should cause LND nodes to force-close and
broadcast the latest channel state to the chain. In order to trigger this
when we wish to force-close a channel, LDK now disconnects immediately after
sending a channel-closing `error` message. This should result in cooperative
peers also working to confirm the latest commitment transaction when we wish
to force-close (lightningdevkit#2658).
Security
========
0.0.118 expands mitigations against transaction cycling attacks to non-anchor
channels, though note that no mitigations which exist today are considered robust
to prevent the class of attacks.
* In order to mitigate against transaction cycling attacks, non-anchor HTLC
transactions are now properly re-signed before broadcasting (lightningdevkit#2667).

Thoughts on also disconnecting on error/broadcast? This would ensure we also get the counterparty to broadcast whenever we reconnect.

Unfortunately, lnd doesn't force close on errors
(https://github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd/blob/abb1e3463f3a83bbb843d5c399869dbe930ad94f/htlcswitch/link.go#L2119).
One of the few ways to get an lnd counterparty to force close is by
replicating what they do when restoring static channel backups (SCBs).
They send an invalid `ChannelReestablish` with `0` commitment numbers
and an invalid `your_last_per_commitment_secret`.
Since we received a `ChannelReestablish` for a channel that doesn't
exist, we can assume it's likely the channel closed from our point of
view, but it remains open on the counterparty's side. By sending this
bogus `ChannelReestablish` message now as a response to theirs, we
trigger them to force close broadcasting their latest state. If the
closing transaction from our point of view remains unconfirmed, it'll
enter a race with the counterparty's to-be-broadcast latest commitment
transaction.
We do this to ensure that the counterparty will always broadcast their
latest state when we broadcast ours. Usually, they'll do this with the
`error` message alone, but if they don't receive it or ignore it, then
we'll force them to broadcast by sending them a bogus
`channel_reestablish` upon reconnecting. Note that this doesn't apply to
unfunded channels as there is no commitment transaction to broadcast.
Not doing so caused a lock order inversion between the locks
`ChannelManager::best_block` and `ChannelManager::short_to_chan_info`
after the addition of `test_trigger_lnd_force_close`.
It turns out that we were holding the `short_to_chan_info` for longer
than needed when processing HTLC forwards. We only need to acquire it to
quickly obtain channel info, and there aren't any other locks within
`forwarding_channel_not_found` that depend on it being held.

0.0.118 - Oct 23, 2023 - "Just the Twelve Sinks"
API Updates
===========
* BOLT12 sending and receiving is now supported as an alpha feature. You may
run into unexpected issues and will need to have a direct connection with
the offer's blinded path introduction points as messages are not yet routed.
We are seeking feedback from early testers (lightningdevkit#2578, lightningdevkit#2039).
* `ConfirmationTarget` has been rewritten to provide information about the
specific use LDK needs the feerate estimate for, rather than the generic
low-, medium-, and high-priority estimates. This allows LDK users to more
accurately target their feerate estimates (lightningdevkit#2660). For those wishing to
retain their existing behavior, see the table below for conversion.
* `ChainHash` is now used in place of `BlockHash` where it represents the
genesis block (lightningdevkit#2662).
* `lightning-invoice` payment utilities now take a `Deref` to
`AChannelManager` (lightningdevkit#2652).
* `peel_onion` is provided to statelessly decode an `OnionMessage` (lightningdevkit#2599).
* `ToSocketAddrs` + `Display` are now impl'd for `SocketAddress` (lightningdevkit#2636, lightningdevkit#2670)
* `Display` is now implemented for `OutPoint` (lightningdevkit#2649).
* `Features::from_be_bytes` is now provided (lightningdevkit#2640).
For those moving to the new `ConfirmationTarget`, the new variants in terms of
the old mempool/low/medium/high priorities are as follows:
* `OnChainSweep` = `HighPriority`
* `MaxAllowedNonAnchorChannelRemoteFee` = `max(25 * 250, HighPriority * 10)`
* `MinAllowedAnchorChannelRemoteFee` = `MempoolMinimum`
* `MinAllowedNonAnchorChannelRemoteFee` = `Background - 250`
* `AnchorChannelFee` = `Background`
* `NonAnchorChannelFee` = `Normal`
* `ChannelCloseMinimum` = `Background`
Bug Fixes
=========
* Calling `ChannelManager::close_channel[_with_feerate_and_script]` on a
channel which did not exist would immediately hang holding several key
`ChannelManager`-internal locks (lightningdevkit#2657).
* Channel information updates received from a failing HTLC are no longer
applied to our `NetworkGraph`. This prevents a node which we attempted to
route a payment through from being able to learn the sender of the payment.
In some rare cases, this may result in marginally reduced payment success
rates (lightningdevkit#2666).
* Anchor outputs are now properly considered when calculating the amount
available to send in HTLCs. This can prevent force-closes in anchor channels
when sending payments which overflow the available balance (lightningdevkit#2674).
* A peer that sends an `update_fulfill_htlc` message for a forwarded HTLC,
then reconnects prior to sending a `commitment_signed` (thus retransmitting
their `update_fulfill_htlc`) may result in the channel stalling and being
unable to make progress (lightningdevkit#2661).
* In exceedingly rare circumstances, messages intended to be sent to a peer
prior to reconnection can be sent after reconnection. This could result in
undefined channel state and force-closes (lightningdevkit#2663).
Backwards Compatibility
=======================
* Creating a blinded path to receive a payment then downgrading to LDK prior to
0.0.117 may result in failure to receive the payment (lightningdevkit#2413).
* Calling `ChannelManager::pay_for_offer` or
`ChannelManager::create_refund_builder` may prevent downgrading to LDK prior
to 0.0.118 until the payment times out and has been removed (lightningdevkit#2039).
Node Compatibility
==================
* LDK now sends a bogus `channel_reestablish` message to peers when they ask to
resume an unknown channel. This should cause LND nodes to force-close and
broadcast the latest channel state to the chain. In order to trigger this
when we wish to force-close a channel, LDK now disconnects immediately after
sending a channel-closing `error` message. This should result in cooperative
peers also working to confirm the latest commitment transaction when we wish
to force-close (lightningdevkit#2658).
Security
========
0.0.118 expands mitigations against transaction cycling attacks to non-anchor
channels, though note that no mitigations which exist today are considered robust
to prevent the class of attacks.

Confirmed locally this will trigger a force close on both sides (LDK <-> LND) after:

  1. Opening a channel
  2. Force closing on the LDK end (LND won't force close on error)
  3. Reconnecting nodes causing LND to send ChannelReestablish first and LDK responding with its own
