Summary

  • add a standalone safe-Rust XSLT 1.0 engine with XPath, EXSLT, serialization, resolver, clock, and typed budget contracts
  • provide the bounded XSLT capability boundary needed for XML-security policy integration while replacing the remaining quick-xml paths with shared bounded XML input handling
  • vendor the complete pinned libxslt oracle corpus and safe DOM/XPath foundations, with standards-backed strict behavior and explicit compatibility cases
  • add backend, encoding, no-std, CI, release, documentation, and reviewer fixture-scope support required by the complete feature

Validation

  • cargo nextest run --workspace --all-features (3043 passed)
  • cargo test --workspace --all-features --doc (15 passed)
  • cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets --all-features -- -D warnings
  • cargo build --workspace --all-features
  • cargo check --workspace --all-targets --all-features
  • alloc-only host and thumbv7em-none-eabihf checks

Closes #141

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added safe XML input handling with encoding detection, transcoding, validation, and bounded decoding.
    • Added an XSLT 1.0 compiler and runtime with XPath support, serialization, external-resource controls, execution budgets, and extension policies.
    • Added byte-based XML parsing APIs and configurable namespace-binding limits.
    • Added safe-Rust XML and XPath processing support.
    • Added support for publishing workspace support crates.
  • Bug Fixes
    • Improved certificate revocation checks, encoding-limit reporting, XML escaping, and language matching.
  • Documentation
    • Expanded usage, interoperability, standards, and XSLT documentation.
  • Tests
    • Added comprehensive compatibility coverage using the libxslt test corpus and expanded CI validation.

Implement the standalone bounded XSLT 1.0 engine, shared XML input layer, complete pinned interoperability corpus, and the required integration, documentation, CI, and no_std validation paths.

Closes #141

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change adds shared XML input processing, a safe XSLT 1.0 engine, vendored safe DOM/XPath implementations, namespace and decoding limits, XML security adapter updates, compatibility fixtures, and CI/release integration.

Changes

XML platform and XSLT engine

Layer / File(s) Summary
Repository contracts and integration
.github/workflows/*, Cargo.toml, README.md, scripts/*, docs/*
The workspace, documentation, standards metadata, CI jobs, release publishing, and fixture-management scripts are updated.
Shared XML input and lexical writer
crates/xml-sec-xml-input/*
The new crate validates XML syntax, names, references, namespaces, encodings, decoded sizes, and writer state.
XSLT runtime contracts and execution
crates/xml-sec-xslt/*
The new crate exposes budgets, resolvers, execution environments, XPath expression helpers, EXSLT date functions, values, and serialization APIs.
Policy-aware XML parsing
src/document.rs, src/encoding.rs, src/policy.rs, src/xml/dom/*
XML parsing uses shared decoding and lexical events, tracks namespace bindings, enforces typed limits, and reports equivalent backend errors.
Vendored safe DOM and XPath implementations
vendor/sxd-document-no-unsafe/*, vendor/sxd-xpath-no-unsafe/*
The vendored crates add safe DOM storage, namespace-aware writers, XPath parsing and evaluation, metering, and integration tests.
XML security and CLI adapters
src/xmldsig/*, src/xmlenc/encrypt.rs, tools/xmlsec1/*
Security and CLI paths use shared lexical writing and bounded decoding. XMLDSig mutation uses lexical range splicing. CRL issuer validation checks version-dependent cRLSign authorization.
libxslt oracle harness
crates/xml-sec-xslt/tests/*, crates/xml-sec-xslt/tests/fixtures/*
The pinned libxslt corpus is imported, confined, prepared, executed, normalized, and compared across 554 cases.

Priority: ➖ Normal

Estimated code review effort: 5 (Critical) | ~120 minutes

Severity of issue fixed: Medium

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to e234f

The change bounds extension-rewrite storage in the XSLT implementation, reducing unbounded-memory exposure without an identified compatibility or runtime regression. No merge-blocking risk remains.

safe backend to collect namespace declarations into a temporary snapshot before
invoking callbacks, releasing the storage borrow so visitors may mutate the
document. Align the callback contract and namespace_declaration_workspace_bytes
with the snapshot allocation, and add the equivalent reentrancy test to verify
