ERC draft "Independent Simulation Result" (STVA) defines a canonical, content-addressed SimulationResult (success, gasUsed, returnData, stateDiffHash, logsHash, snapshotId, resultHash) that any wallet, hardware device or verifier can recompute from the same VerificationPayload and state snapshot. It targets compromised-frontend and UI/calldata-mismatch attacks, and defines Basic, Standard and Strict compliance levels. Open questions are stateDiff encoding, prestate proofs and binding to capability tokens.

DBHub, a database MCP server, had a read-only mode bypass in its SQL check. The check treated every `--` as a comment, but MySQL only starts a comment when whitespace follows it. A hidden write statement could therefore still run, and a prompt injection could trigger it. Fixed in version 0.22.6. Replies say enforcement belongs in database grants and that parser tests need to be dialect-specific.

Pre-ERC draft on Ethereum Magicians that binds the x402 payTo address to an ERC-8004 agent's registered agentWallet, directly or through an EIP-712 payee delegation (ERC-1271 for contract wallets). It lists eight fixed checker outcomes and requires the resource origin to appear in the registration file. On Robinhood Chain (28 October 2026), 5,575 of 20,046 agents answered with x402 requirements, and only 5 used their agentWallet as payTo.

ERC-8478 is a draft Ethereum standard that binds the x402 payTo address to an ERC-8004 agent's identity, to stop payee redirection by a hijacked domain, proxy or injected tool result. A payTo must equal the agentWallet or carry an EIP-712 delegation signed by it, and the origin must be listed in the registration file. On Robinhood Chain, 5 of 5,575 x402-responding agents used their agentWallet as payTo (28 October 2026).

Discussion thread for a draft Core EIP that lets an Ethereum EOA permanently disable EIP-7702 delegation. A type-4 set-code transaction with an empty authorization list, destination equal to sender and zero value installs the 0xef0200 marker for 33500 gas. Later authorizations, including clearing to the zero address, are skipped. It does not protect against private-key compromise. Open questions cover the prefix, a dedicated transaction type, gas pricing, and EIP-8151 interaction.
