Summary
Apply token updates to the latest state while holding the existing state mutex. This prevents overlapping HOTP increment requests from persisting the same next counter value.
Current behavior
The HOTP tile starts
incrementCounterwithout waiting for its returnedFuture. The button's fixed one-second cooldown can expire while the previous repository write is still pending, so another press can pass the same token snapshot.In the current implementation,
_updateTokenresolves the token before_replaceTokenacquires_stateMutex, whileincrementCountercalculates the next value from the supplied snapshot. Two overlapping calls can therefore both persistN + 1, losing one increment. The issue is timing-dependent and only manifests when the operations actually overlap, for example during a slower token write.The user can then see the same HOTP value again instead of the expected next value, which can also leave the app counter out of step with the server.
Fix
_stateMutex.current.counter.Regression test
The test starts two increments with the same counter-
522snapshot and verifies that the repository receives523followed by524, with a final state of524.Validation
