The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This update fixes a crash that could happen when a user tries to delete or switch their cryptocurrency wallet in the Skylight Wallet app. The crash occurred because the app might free the wallet's underlying native memory while a background task (like checking the network connection or refreshing balances) was still using it. The patch adds a simple 'busy' flag and a wait step so the app finishes any in-flight task before closing the wallet. There is no direct evidence this crash can be exploited by an attacker to steal funds or data, but any use-after-free bug in native code is a security concern worth treating carefully.

Recommended action

Treat this as a stability and potential memory-safety fix. Users should update to the patched version. Developers should verify that _walletIdle is never completed more than once and that no other code paths free _w2Wallet outside _closeOpenWallet. A targeted security review of the native wallet binding and any other teardown paths is advisable, but no emergency response is warranted absent evidence of exploitation.

Security signals we found

01

Use-after-free / race condition in native wallet pointer teardown

02

Background timer tasks touching freed wallet pointer

03

Crash on wallet delete / wallet-type switch

04

Memory-safety fix in Dart/Flutter binding to native Monero wallet library
