The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit refactors how the Epic Cash wallet in Stack Wallet talks to its underlying Rust library. Instead of repeatedly reading a wallet handle from secure storage and passing it to a global library interface, it now keeps an in-memory wallet object (an 'EpicWallet') and runs operations on that object, often inside a separate worker isolate. The change also adds explicit wallet-close calls on shutdown. The overall direction improves isolation and cleanup, but the commit is described as a work-in-progress ('TODO: test more'), so it may not be a complete or fully tested security fix.

Recommended action

Treat this as a defensive refactor rather than a confirmed vulnerability fix. Review the updated `flutter_libepiccash` submodule changes separately, complete the author's TODOs (more testing, upstream PR, submodule reference update), and verify that isolate lifecycle handling does not introduce race conditions or use-after-close bugs.

Security signals we found

01

Moves wallet handle from secure storage into an in-memory object, reducing the attack surface where a stale or leaked handle could be reused

02

Adds explicit wallet resource cleanup (`_wallet?.close()`) on wallet exit, which can help prevent memory leaks or dangling native resources

03

Uses worker isolates for wallet operations, mirroring the cs_monero pattern, which can limit the impact of some memory-safety issues in the Rust FFI layer

04

Commit message and TODOs indicate the change is incomplete and needs more testing and upstream merge

05

No explicit security bug, CVE, or vulnerability description is present in the commit or supplied references
