ME News reports that on November 6 (UTC+8), the Ethereum Foundation published a blog post warning contract developers and auditors to review their projects for dependencies on eight Gas pricing assumptions that will no longer hold after the Gas fee adjustments introduced by EIP-8037 and EIP-8038 in Glamsterdam. The Ethereum Foundation has established a code repository providing explanations, examples, and checklists for each assumption; affected projects may contact the team via email. The team is collaborating with multiple audit firms and conducting internal reviews, but cannot cover all projects on Ethereum, including their on-chain and off-chain code.
Foresight News previously reported that on October 23, the Ethereum Foundation announced a delay of the Glamsterdam upgrade, originally scheduled to activate on the Hoodie testnet, with a new activation date yet to be determined. On October 26, Ethereum Foundation researcher Toni Wahrstätter stated that the delay was due to a report from ChainSecurity revealing issues with EIP-8037 when interacting with certain contracts, and the scope of the impact has now been largely clarified.
