The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit improves how the Cake Wallet app reads and displays error messages when an Ethereum-compatible transaction fails due to not enough funds for fees. It adds support for more message formats and shows a simpler 'insufficient funds' message when the app cannot extract exact numbers. There is no direct evidence this fixes an active security vulnerability; it appears to be a user-experience and robustness improvement.

Recommended action

Treat as a routine robustness/UX improvement. Review whether any remaining regex patterns can still over-match or mis-parse attacker-controlled error strings, and ensure the UI never treats parsed numeric values as authoritative for fee setting. No urgent security action is indicated by the diff alone.

Security signals we found

01

Refactored error-message parsing to handle additional EVM node error formats

02

Added generic insufficient-funds fallback to avoid presenting fabricated zero-value breakdowns as real values

03

No changes to transaction signing, fee computation, or wallet authorization logic

04

No mention of vulnerability, CVE, bug bounty, or security advisory in commit metadata
