The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit updates the Monero wallet library used by Stack Wallet (cs_monero from version 2.0.0 to 3.1.0) and changes many wallet operations from synchronous to asynchronous. The visible changes are mostly mechanical: adding 'await' and 'Future' return types so the app waits for the underlying C++ Monero code to finish before continuing. There is also a small change to app-exit behavior on Linux and extra debug logging. The commit does not describe any security bug, and the diff itself does not show an obvious vulnerability. However, because it touches sensitive wallet operations (keys, balances, transaction keys, seeds, syncing) and upgrades a major dependency, it could indirectly affect security or stability if the new library version fixed or introduced issues not visible in this repository's diff.

Recommended action

Review the cs_monero 3.1.0 release notes and changelog for any security fixes or breaking changes, verify that the async conversion does not introduce new race conditions around wallet open/close or rescan, and test wallet exit, sync, and key/balance retrieval on Linux, macOS, Windows, Android, and iOS. Consider pinning transitive cs_monero_flutter_libs_* versions and running static analysis on the updated async call sites.

Security signals we found

01

Dependency upgrade of core cryptographic wallet library (cs_monero 2.0.0 -> 3.1.0) without disclosed changelog

02

Conversion of synchronous key/balance/seed operations to async, reducing risk of UI/main-thread blocking and potential race conditions

03

Addition of Linux to force-exit workaround for C++ sync hang on app close

04

No explicit security bug fix or CVE reference in commit message or diff
