[Ethereum Foundation Researcher: Glamsterdam Testnet Upgrade Delayed Due to EIP-8037 Contract Compatibility Issues] BlockBeats reported on October 26th that Ethereum Foundation researcher Toni Wahrstätter stated that due to a ChainSecurity report revealing compatibility and security issues with EIP-8037 and some smart contracts, core developers decided last week to postpone the Hoodi testnet upgrade to Glamsterdam. Currently identified issues include: residual gas may increase during transaction execution, causing underflow in some gas counting logic and triggering rollbacks, or triggering code paths that shouldn't be executed, making transactions appear successful.
Furthermore, some contracts may underestimate gas usage due to incorrect gas consumption calculations during calls. ChainSecurity previously stated that it has identified 13 real-world cases and is conducting responsible disclosure with affected projects. Toni Wahrstätter stated that further investigation of relevant contracts will be conducted this week to assess subsequent solutions, which may require collaboration among application developers, core developers, auditors, and node operators. In the worst-case scenario, adjustments to the protocol specifications may be necessary. He reminded application developers and auditors to check the contract's compatibility with EIP-8037 and EIP-8038, and to report any issues promptly. [Original Link]
