The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit removes some old, disabled code paths for handling Lightning Network and OpenCryptoPay QR code scans. The removed logic is commented out with 'false &&' guards, so it was already inactive. The practical effect is that scanning certain QR codes will now fall through to the remaining handler (WalletConnect 'wc:' scheme) instead of being processed by the old Lightning-specific logic. There is no clear security fix here; it appears to be cleanup of dead code.

Recommended action

Treat as routine cleanup. If the old Lightning parsing logic is being permanently retired, ensure related helper functions (getBolt11Amount, LNURL.getPayRequestAmount, isNonZeroAmountLightningInvoice, isLnurlInvoice, OpenCryptoPayService.isOpenCryptoPayQR) are also removed or marked deprecated to avoid future confusion. No immediate security action required.

Security signals we found

01

Removal of legacy Lightning/Bolt11/LNURL parsing paths

02

Old code relied on external parsing helpers (getBolt11Amount, LNURL.getPayRequestAmount) that are no longer invoked

03

No explicit security claim in commit title or message
