Project Updates
TRON TIPs — proposals with recent activity
An outside commenter with no commit history in the repository provided technical details on historical infinity-recovery signature usage appearing in mainnet blocks, posted to issue #935 titled "TIP-935: Harden ECDSA Signature Validation" (Oct 1, 12:07 UTC). The commenter reported that 3,250 of 3,268 transactions returned from a scan of confirmed outgoing transactions on one account carried 65-byte signatures recovering to the point at infinity under legacy recovery, spanning blocks 7,807,040 through 41,441,952. The last infinity-recovery signature appeared in block 41,441,952 with an AccountPermissionUpdateContract that set both Owner and Active permission keys; subsequent transactions used ordinary signatures. The commenter suggested the TIP should mention this history and use confirmed transactions as historical-replay fixtures alongside constructed test vectors. The issue proposes strict validation mode for recoverable secp256k1 ECDSA signatures used by TRON transactions, blocks, and TVM recovery. https://github.com/tronprotocol/tips/issues/935#issuecomment-5931040819
