| # Cosmos SDK v0.43.0 Release Notes | ||
| # Cosmos SDK v0.43.0-RC3 Release Notes | ||
|
|
||
| This release introduces several new important updates to the Cosmos SDK. The release notes below provide an overview of the larger high-level changes introduced in the v0.43 release series. | ||
| This is a fourth Release Candidate for v0.43. If no issue will be reported this will be the final release. | ||
|
|
||
| That being said, this release does contain many more minor and module-level changes besides those mentioned below. For a comprehsive list of all breaking changes and improvements since the v0.42 "Stargate" release series, please see the [CHANGELOG](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/blob/release/v0.43.x/CHANGELOG.md). | ||
| This release contains two major bug fixes: | ||
|
|
||
| ## Two new modules: `x/authz` and `x/feegrant` | ||
| - This release includes an important `x/capabiliy` module bug fix which prohibited IBC to create new channels (issue [\#9800](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/issues/9800)). | ||
| The fix introduces an API-breaking change by removing the `x/capability/keeper/Keeper.InitializeAndSeal` method and replaces it with `Seal()`. It also requires app developers to update their app module manager by adding x/capability module to `BeginBlocker`s before any other module's `BeginBlocker`. | ||
| - [\#9793](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/pull/9793) Fixed ECDSA/secp256r1 transaction malleability. | ||
|
|
||
| The v0.43 release focused on simplifying [keys and fee management](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/issues/7074) for SDK users, by introducing the two following modules: | ||
| One **client-breaking change** has also been introduced to fix an emitted event: | ||
|
|
||
| - `x/feegrant` allows one account, the "granter" to grant another account, the "grantee" an allowance to spend the granter's account balance for fees within certain well-defined limits. It solves the problem of signing accounts needing to possess a sufficient balance in order to pay fees. | ||
| - See [ADR-029](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/blob/8f21e26a6506c9ee81686bad6cf9be3f0e8e11d7/docs/architecture/adr-029-fee-grant-module.md) introducing the module. | ||
| - Read the [documentation](https://docs.cosmos.network/master/modules/feegrant/). | ||
| - Check out its [Protobuf definitions](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/tree/master/proto/cosmos/feegrant/v1beta1). | ||
| - `x/authz` provides functionality for granting arbitrary privileges from one account (the "granter") to another account (the "grantee"). These privileges, called [`Authorization`](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/blob/f2cea6a137ce19ad8987fa8a0cb99f4b37c4484d/x/authz/authorizations.go#L11)s in the code, can for example allow grantees to execute `Msg`s on behalf of the granter. | ||
| - See [ADR-030](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/blob/8f21e26a6506c9ee81686bad6cf9be3f0e8e11d7/docs/architecture/adr-030-authz-module.md) introducing the module. | ||
| - Read the [documentation](https://docs.cosmos.network/master/modules/authz/). | ||
| - Check out its [Protobuf definitions](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/tree/master/proto/cosmos/authz/v1beta1). | ||
| - [\#9785](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/issues/9785) Fix missing coin denomination in logs when emitting the `create_validator` event. | ||
|
|
||
| These two modules have a slightly different folder structure compared to previously existing modules. For example, all Protobuf-generated files are generated in the module root folder instead of the `types/` folder, and the module itself is defined inside a `module` sub-package. Moving forward, we believe this folder structure is clearer and sets a better example for module developers. To learn more about building modules following this structure, please read our [building modules](https://docs.cosmos.network/master/building-modules/intro.html) documentation. | ||
| It also includes a couple of minor fixes and improvements: | ||
|
|
||
| ## ADR-028 Addresses | ||
| - [\#9750](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/pull/9750) Emit events for tx signature and sequence, so clients can now query txs by signature (`tx.signature='<base64_sig>'`) or by address and sequence combo (`tx.acc_seq='<addr>/<seq>'`). | ||
| - Multiple CLI UX improvements. Notably, we changed `<app> tx distribution withdraw-all-rewards` CLI by forcing the broadcast mode if a chunk size is greater than 0. This will ensure that the transactions do not fail even if the user uses invalid broadcast modes for this command (sync and async). This was requested by the community and we consider it as fixing the `withdraw-all-rewards` behavior. | ||
|
|
||
| In the SDK versions v0.42 and earlier, addresses were all 20-bytes long, generated by truncating the first 20 bytes of the SHA-256 hash of some given bytes (e.g. the public key for normal accounts, or the module name for module accounts). Unfortunately, this significantly decreases the security of Cosmos SDK due to address space collisions. | ||
|
|
||
| ADR-028 introduces a new specification for deriving addresses for all kinds of addressable accounts. Following is a quick summary: | ||
|
|
||
| - secp256k1 public keys still have 20-byte addresses to keep backwards-compatibility, | ||
| - new public key types (e.g. ed25519) and module accounts will have 32-byte address to increase collision resistance, | ||
| - new algorithms have also been specified for composed accounts (like multisigs) or derived accounts (like module sub-accounts). | ||

|
||
| ## ADR-041 In-place store migrations | ||
|
|
||
| Chain upgrades were historically done with the Cosmos SDK by creating an upgrade proposal, halting the chain at the given height, exporting state to a JSON file, making the necessary JSON file changes, and creating a new chain with the modified JSON file as genesis. This procedure is tedious, and could take up to several hours. | ||
|
|
||
| Cosmos SDK v0.43 introduces a new way of handling upgrades. Whan an upgrade happens, instead of starting a new chain, the new binary will read the existing database, and perform in-place modifications of the store. We expect this method to significantly reduce the migration time. | ||
|
|
||
| For more information: | ||
|
|
||
| - see the [upgrading modules](https://docs.cosmos.network/master/building-modules/upgrade.html) documentation to learn how to modify your module to be able to support in-place store migrations, | ||
| - check out how to [set up an upgrade handler](https://docs.cosmos.network/master/core/upgrade.html) that perform in-place store migrations in your `app.go`, | ||
| - read [ADR-041](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/blob/master/docs/architecture/adr-041-in-place-store-migrations.md) introducing this feature. | ||
|
|
||
| ## Protobuf Client-Side Breaking Changes | ||
|
|
||
| In this release, we deprecated a couple of fields in our Protobuf definitions. When using these fields, some changes in behavior might occur whether you're hitting an v0.42 or a v0.43 node. | ||
|
|
||
| - `cosmos.gov.v1beta1.Vote#option` is deprecated in favor of `cosmos.gov.v1beta1.Vote#options` (with an "s") to support x/gov [split votes](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/blob/master/docs/architecture/adr-037-gov-split-vote.md). There are no breaking changes in `Msg`s, as a new `MsgWeightedVote` has been added to support split votes. However, when querying, the deprecated `option` field is populated only when the underlying vote has one VoteOption with weight 1. For other split votes, the `option` field will be equal to `OptionEmpty`. | ||
| - `cosmos.upgrade.v1beta1.Plan#time` is deprecated, because the SDK stops supporting time-based upgrades in favor or height-based upgrades. If an upgrade Plan is created with a non-empty time, the node will error. | ||
| - `cosmos.upgrade.v1beta1.Plan#upgraded_client_state` is deprecated as IBC logic has been moved to the IBC repo. If this field is set, the node will error. | ||
|
|
||
| The SDK team is planning to document Protobuf change process using an ADR. It will be a guideline for all chain developers, follow [#9477](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/issues/9477) for more info. | ||
|
|
||
| ## Rosetta (Beta Feature) | ||
|
|
||
| [Rosetta](https://www.rosetta-api.org/) is an open standard of API endpoints designed to simplify blockchain deployment and interaction. It is maintained by Coinbase and used by their team to integrate various blockchains within their exchange platform. In order to facilitate integrating Cosmos-based chains with third-party services using Rosetta, the Cosmos SDK natively supports Rosetta via the `{appd} rosetta` CLI command, which runs a Rosetta API server as a sidecar. | ||
|
|
||
| Please note that this feature is still in the **beta** phase, and rough edges will be polished in the next releases. | ||
| Please see the [CHANGELOG](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/blob/release/v0.43.x/CHANGELOG.md) for more details. |
