The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit updates the list of trusted root certificates used by the Skylight Wallet app and changes how the app verifies HTTPS certificates. The main risk is that before this fix, the app may have trusted too many old or wrong certificates, or may not have properly checked the certificate chain, which could let an attacker intercept or fake wallet server connections. The patch itself is large because it adds a fresh bundle of trusted certificates, but the actual code changes are small and the commit message only says 'Cert verification fix' without explaining what was broken.

Recommended action

Review the full before/after certificate verification logic to confirm the old code accepted invalid certificates and that the new code properly validates the full chain against the bundled CA store. Test against both legitimate and invalid TLS endpoints, and consider adding certificate pinning for wallet-specific servers rather than relying solely on the public CA bundle.
