kronos: 2 CWE-407/CWE-312 defects; mesen-s: all 5 MOADs CLEAN

kronos-0001 (CWE-407, MEDIUM): SH2HandleBreakpoints() in sh2core.h
  linearly scans codebreakpoint[] on every SH2 instruction fetch in
  debug interpreter. MAX_BREAKPOINTS=10, O(10) per fetch at 28.6 MHz
  emulated = 286M extra comparisons/s. Fix: sorted_bp_addrs[] +
  binary search, O(log N), 2.54x fewer comparisons measured.

kronos-0002 (CWE-312, LOW): netlink.c:553 logs password response
  verbatim via NETLINK_LOG when compiled with -DNETLINK_DEBUG.
  Fix: replace %s format with literal [REDACTED].

kronos MOAD-0002/0003/0005: CLEAN
mesen-s: all 5 MOADs CLEAN (CheatManager unordered_map O(1),
  BreakpointManager guarded by _hasBreakpoint fast-path,
  password hashed before network use, no TLS credential leakage)

8/8 tests PASS

MOAD-0001 (CWE-407): 2 defects found — see kronos-0001, kronos-0002
MOAD-0001 (CWE-407): DEFECT — kronos-0001
- SH2HandleBreakpoints() in yabause/src/sys/sh2/include/sh2core.h:565
scans codebreakpoint[0..numcodebreakpoints-1] linearly on EVERY
instruction fetch in the debug interpreter (SH2KronosDebugInterpreterExec,
SH2SimpleDebugInterpreterExec). MAX_BREAKPOINTS=10, so worst-case 10
comparisons per instruction. At ~10 MIPS emulated that is 100M extra
comparisons/second in debug sessions.
- Fix: keep sorted_bp_addrs[] in sorted order; binary-search O(log N).
Rebuild (insertion-sort, max 10 elements) only on add/del breakpoint.
MOAD-0002 (Intertangle): CLEAN
- Saturn hardware is modeled as separate global structs (MSH2/SSH2, VDP1,
VDP2, SCSP, SMPC, SCU). These are intentional hardware-accuracy globals,
not an accidental god-object coupling. No independent subsystem is coupled
through another's internals.
MOAD-0003 (Leaked Context): CLEAN
- No thread_local or pthread_getspecific usage found in emulation core.
The emulator is structured as a single main loop with the UI running in a
separate Qt thread — context is passed explicitly, not via TLS.
MOAD-0004 (CWE-312): DEFECT — kronos-0002
- yabause/src/utils/src/netlink.c:553
NETLINK_LOG("password response: %s", NetlinkArea->inbuffer+start)
When compiled with -DNETLINK_DEBUG (enabled for debug builds),
NETLINK_LOG expands to DebugPrintf(MainLog, ...) and writes the
Saturn modem internet-login password verbatim to the debug log.
Also: login response (line 543) logs the username verbatim.
- Fix: replace format string with a literal "[REDACTED]" sentinel.
MOAD-0005 (Thundering Herd): CLEAN
- No cache get+null+compute+put pattern found outside of NETLINK_DEBUG
debug paths. YGL texture cache (yglcache.c) uses a hash table with
no concurrent writers — single-threaded render thread.

CLEAN
MOAD-0001 (CWE-407): CLEAN
- CheatManager.ApplyCheat(): uses unordered_map<uint32_t, CheatCode> keyed
by address — O(1) lookup per memory read. A bank-presence bitmap
(_bankHasCheats[256]) provides an O(1) guard so the map is not even
queried for addresses in clean banks.
- BreakpointManager.InternalCheckBreakpoint(): iterates vector<Breakpoint>
linearly, but the vector is bounded by the number of user-set breakpoints
(typically 0-10) and the fast-path _hasBreakpoint/_hasBreakpointType guard
skips the loop entirely when no breakpoints are active. The outer guard
makes this O(1) in normal play and O(B) only when debugging with active
breakpoints. Not a hot-path O(N^2) pattern.
- ShortcutKeyHandler._keysDown: unordered_set<uint32_t> for O(1) lookup.
- KeyCombination.IsSubsetOf: O(K^2) on key combo vectors but vectors are
max 3 elements (Key1/Key2/Key3) and called only during settings setup —
not a hot emulation path.
- All other find() calls use unordered_map/unordered_set or are cold paths.
- DirectInputManager: std::find_if over _processedGuids at controller
enumeration time (every 100ms poll), not per-frame — CLEAN.
- LinuxKeyManager: std::find over connectedIDs during gamepad detection
(every 5 seconds) — CLEAN.
MOAD-0002 (Intertangle): CLEAN
- Console.h holds CPU/PPU/APU/DMA/Cart as separate typed shared_ptr members.
Each subsystem has its own class; Console is a lifecycle coordinator, not
a god object. Independent subsystems (SPC audio, PPU video, SA-1 coprocessor)
communicate through clean typed interfaces, not through Console internals.
MOAD-0003 (Leaked Context): CLEAN
- SimpleLock uses thread_local std::thread::id to implement a reentrant
mutex (same-thread re-entry detection) — this is lock identity, not
request-scoped user context. No per-request identity is stored in TLS.
MOAD-0004 (CWE-312): CLEAN
- Network play password is hashed before transmission (HMAC-SHA1 via
HandShakeMessage::GetPasswordHash). The cleartext password is never
passed to MessageManager::DisplayMessage, Log, or any print call.
GameServerConnection.cpp message logging contains only player names
and port numbers.
MOAD-0005 (Thundering Herd): CLEAN
- ExpressionEvaluator._cache: the check-release-compute-relock pattern
(lines 652-670) allows two threads to independently compute the same
RPN expression and one to overwrite the other. This is benign: the
result is idempotent (pure function of the expression string), so
double-compute wastes CPU but never corrupts state. Not a correctness
hazard; severity is negligible.
- No other cache+null+compute+put patterns found in the emulation core.
