The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit fixes a UI bug in the COLDCARD address explorer. When a user entered a custom BIP32 path, the device was highlighting the wrong default address format on the selection menu. For example, a path meant for classic Bitcoin addresses (starting with m/44h) might have had Segwit highlighted by default. The fix corrects the menu's default cursor position and adds a warning not to reorder the underlying address-format list. There is no direct security vulnerability here—just a user-experience bug that could, in rare cases, lead a user to confirm an unintended address type.

Recommended action

No security patch required; treat as normal bugfix release. Users who generated custom-path addresses should verify the address type matches their intent, especially if they relied on the default highlighted option before this fix.

Security signals we found

01

UI default-selection bug in security-critical address-format picker
