bump: torch_dart (#3542)
What changed, and why it matters
This commit updates a script that downloads a third-party software package called torch_dart used by the Cake Wallet app. It changes the expected fingerprint (a Git commit hash) of the package from one value to another. On its own, this is a routine dependency bump, but because the commit message only says 'bump' and gives no details about what changed in torch_dart, we cannot tell from this diff alone whether the new version fixes a security issue, introduces one, or is benign. The change is not suspicious by itself, but it is also not verifiable as safe without inspecting the upstream torch_dart repository.
Review the upstream torch_dart commits between the old and new hashes to confirm the bump is benign. Verify that the new hash corresponds to a legitimate, tagged release and consider adding a comment in prepare_torch.sh linking to the upstream release notes or changelog. If this bump is security-related, request that the vendor document it.
Security signals we found
Third-party dependency pin updated without visible changelog or security rationale
No cryptographic signature or checksum verification details shown in the diff
Commit message is minimal and does not disclose the nature of the upstream changes
Evidence from the diff
The diff modifies scripts/prepare_torch.sh, replacing the HASH variable used to pin the torch_dart dependency from 79e5361f43b8aadd340d2900009cf09590b2a0bb to a8601eaef00ac4a9465a0979b7d7a16df90bc364. This script appears to clone or verify the torch_dart repository at a specific Git commit. The change is a single-line version/hash bump with no accompanying changelog, security note, or explanation in the commit message. There is no diff content showing what changed in torch_dart itself.
