Blockstream Jade Security Disclosure

https://blog.blockstream.com/jade-security-disclosure/

**TL;DR:**

**Vulnerability:** A buffer overflow bug in Jade hardware wallet firmware (versions 1.0.24-1.0.36) that could allow malware on a connected computer/phone to crash the device or potentially extract the user's private keys.

**Practical implications:**

- **Only exploitable if:** Device connected via USB/Bluetooth to malware-infected computer AND device was unlocked on that interface

- **Not vulnerable:** QR-only mode, uninitialized devices, or if using official Blockstream app on clean devices

- **No known exploits** in the wild

- **Fix:** Update to firmware 1.0.38+ immediately (includes anti-rollback protection)

- **Worst case:** Attacker could theoretically steal private keys if sophisticated malware was present
