The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit adds a new user-facing safety feature for Trezor hardware wallets when signing Ethereum transactions. If the user chooses to view all the raw transaction data (calldata), the device will now also show a final cryptographic hash (digest) of that data, based on a community standard called ERC-8213. This helps users verify that what they saw on screen matches what is actually being signed, reducing the risk of hidden malicious changes in very long data fields. It is a defensive improvement, not a fix for an active bug or vulnerability.

Recommended action

No immediate action required; this is a defensive feature addition. Users benefit from verifying the displayed calldata digest against an independently computed ERC-8213 digest before approving large Ethereum transactions. Developers should complete the Bolt and Caesar implementations to avoid inconsistent security behavior across device models, and should review that the no-op stubs cannot be reached in a way that silently skips the digest on those layouts.

Security signals we found

01

Adds user-verifiable calldata digest display (ERC-8213) to mitigate tampering of long Ethereum transaction data

02

Hashes calldata with keccak256 seeded by total length, matching the ERC-8213 specification referenced in code comments

03

Adds a length-consistency check (confirmed_len == total_len) before displaying the digest

04

Bolt and Caesar layouts have no-op stub implementations, leaving the feature incomplete on those devices

05

Changes existing button label from 'Confirm all' to 'Skip and view hash', altering the user decision flow

06

Updates UI test fixtures, indicating new screens are rendered during signing
