The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit adds a small convenience feature in Stack Wallet: when a user scans or opens a Firo payment QR code that contains a 'message' field and the payment address is a Spark privacy address, the wallet now automatically copies that message into the Spark memo field. Spark memos are like short notes attached to private Firo transactions. The change is a user-experience improvement to match how the official Firo desktop wallet (firo-qt) behaves. There is no obvious security bug in the code itself, but it does involve handling untrusted payment data and trusting a third-party address-validation helper.

Recommended action

Review SparkInterface.validateSparkAddress for correctness and ensure paymentData.message is sanitized before being placed in memoController.text. Confirm that the memo field cannot be used to inject malicious content, exceed size limits, or trick users into approving unintended Spark transactions. Treat this as a routine UX merge unless additional context shows the change addresses a reported bug.

Security signals we found

01

Untrusted paymentData.message is copied into a transaction memo field without visible escaping/sanitization

02

Relies on SparkInterface.validateSparkAddress to gate memo population; correctness of that helper is not shown in the diff

03

Behavior parity with firo-qt suggests a UX fix rather than a vulnerability fix

04

No explicit security claims, advisory references, or incident attribution in commit message or diff
