From eeaa1da7246d5152b22cee75a99b1eb96dd7eae4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: aktasbatuhan Date: Wed, 4 Feb 2026 10:34:19 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] fix: Return ERC-1271 failure value instead of reverting for short signatures The isValidSignature function attempts to extract a validator address from signature[0:20] without first checking if the signature has at least 20 bytes. When a signature between 1-19 bytes is provided, this causes an out-of-bounds array access that reverts the transaction. According to ERC-1271, the function should return 0x1626ba7e for valid signatures or 0xffffffff for invalid signatures - it should never revert on invalid input. This fix adds a length check before accessing signature[0:20]. If the signature is shorter than 20 bytes, the function now returns 0xffffffff (ERC-1271 failure value) instead of reverting.
