FYI, 3 proposal types were added to NNS Governance (as new proposal action variants). Requests from older clients should still work, but they might receive new data that they don’t know how to decode yet (action will be decoded to null).

Deprecating NNS Governance protobuf methods

According to a previous post, there doesn’t seem to be people who still call the the protobuf methods. Therefore, the next NNS Governance upgrade proposal will include a change to introduce a 10% random panic to the list_neurons_pb and manage_neuron_pb methods. Hopefully, anyone who still uses those method and did not see the previous post can notice and migrate to the their candid counterparts (presumably easier to use than protobuf method), while the error rate is still low. In the next month,…

NNS Governance Canister Settings

Hi all, To prepare for the Wasm memory limit feature rollout, which will set the wasm_memory_limit to 3GiB by default (more details here), we propose to update the canister settings of the NNS Governance to have a wasm_memory_limit of 4GiB. This is because the NNS Governance has its own soft limit of 3.5GiB, and having a lower wasm_memory_limit will make it possible for NNS Governance to stop responding to update messages, which prevents it from passing proposals to recover from whatever situat…

NNS Update 2024-09-04 Cycles Minting Canister Security Hotfix

TL;DR A security hotfix on the cycles minting canister (CMC) was applied a few hours ago. The source code is now published at commit 77f48ae6 and can be verified, which fixes 3 security issues. Security Issue 1: minted cycles rate-limiting can be triggered by failed and refunded operations For every case where CMC mints cycles, it first adds cycles to its own balance and then sends them to other canisters (cycles ledger or new canisters being created). In addition, there is rate-limiting for cr…
