Upgrade Contracts - Instructions

Upgrading bridge or validators contracts
There are two possible scenarios for how the bridge or validators contracts can be upgraded:
  • a security fix when only the contract implementation is changed
  • an improvement when the contract implementation upgrade requires initialization of storage values
The instructions use NiftyWallet to invoke contract methods. An example how to use this functionality is available here​
Any tool that can create transactions based on contract source code or the ABI may be used.

Security upgrade

  1. 1.
    Deploy a new implementation of the bridge or validators contract.
  2. 2.
    Depending on the contract and the chain use one of the links below to get the current version of the contract implementation:
    • The bridge contract on _the ETH Mainnet: Etherscan,
    • The validators contract on _the ETH Mainnet: Etherscan
    • The bridge contract on _the xDai chain: Blockscout​
    • The validators contract on _the xDai chain: Blockscout​
  3. 3.
    Use the upgradeTo method from EternalStorageProxy ABI, the address of the new implementation, and the incremented version number to encode the data for the transaction. Example of the data: 3ad06d160000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000004000000000000000000000000f097137c7ec5e582b5704065f72ac5903d0b526d.
  4. 4.
    Use NiftyWallet to invoke submitTransaction of the multisig wallet contract (0xff1a8EDA5eAcdB6aAf729905492bdc6376DBe2dd on the Mainnet ETH, 0x0d3726e5a9f37234d6b55216fc971d30f150a60f on the xDai chain). The data field must be filled with the bytes received from the previous step. The destination depends on the contract:
    • 0x4aa42145Aa6Ebf72e164C9bBC74fbD3788045016 if the security upgrade is made for the bridge contract on the ETH Mainnet.
    • 0xe1579dEbdD2DF16Ebdb9db8694391fa74EeA201E if the security upgrade is made for the validators contract on the ETH Mainnet.
    • 0x7301cfa0e1756b71869e93d4e4dca5c7d0eb0aa6 if the security upgrade is made for the bridge contract on the xDai chain.
    • 0xb289f0e6fbdff8eee340498a56e1787b303f1b6d if the security upgrade is made for the validators contract on the xDai chain.
  5. 5.
    Identify the index of the transaction returned in the Submission event as soon as the transaction from the previous step is included into a block and share it with the other multisig wallet owners.
  6. 6.
    (for the rest of owners) Use NiftyWallet to invoke confirmTransaction of the multisig wallet contract (0xff1a8EDA5eAcdB6aAf729905492bdc6376DBe2dd on the Mainnet ETH, 0x0d3726e5a9f37234d6b55216fc971d30f150a60f on the xDai chain). Set the gas limit to three times bigger than the gas estimator function suggests.

Improvement introduction

  1. 1.
    Identify the method to call as part of the new implementation initialization. In the following steps we assume that the method's name is upgradeFrom3to4 which takes no arguments.
  2. 2.
    Use the method mentioned above from the new contract implementation code or ABI to encode the data to be passed to upgradeToAndCall method. Example of the data: 50d28adb.
  3. 3.
    Deploy a new implementation of the bridge or validators contract.
  4. 4.
    Depending on the contract and the chain, use one of the links below to get the current version of the contract implementation:
    • The bridge contract on _the ETH Mainnet: Etherscan,
    • The validators contract on _the ETH Mainnet: Etherscan
    • The bridge contract on _the xDai chain: Blockscout​
    • The validators contract on _the xDai chain: Blockscout​
  5. 5.
    Use the upgradeToAndCall method from the EternalStorageProxy ABI, the address of the new implementation, and the incremented version number to encode the data for the transaction. Example of the data: 0xa9c45fcb0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000004000000000000000000000000692a70d2e424a56d2c6c27aa97d1a86395877b3a0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000060000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000450d28adb00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000.
  6. 6.
    Use NiftyWallet to invoke submitTransaction of the multisig wallet contract (0xff1a8EDA5eAcdB6aAf729905492bdc6376DBe2dd on the Mainnet ETH, 0x0d3726e5a9f37234d6b55216fc971d30f150a60f on the xDai chain). The data field must be filled with the bytes received on the previous step. The destination depends on the contract:

    • 0xe1579dEbdD2DF16Ebdb9db8694391fa74EeA201E if the security upgrade is made for the validators contract on the ETH Mainnet.
    • 0x7301cfa0e1756b71869e93d4e4dca5c7d0eb0aa6 if the security upgrade is made for the bridge contract on the xDai chain.
    • 0xb289f0e6fbdff8eee340498a56e1787b303f1b6d if the security upgrade is made for the validators contract on the xDai chain.
  7. 7.
    Identify the index of the transaction returned in the Submission event as soon as the transaction from the previous step is included into a block and share it with other multisig wallet owners.
  8. 8.
    (for the rest of owners) Use NiftyWallet to invoke confirmTransaction of the multisig wallet contract (0xff1a8EDA5eAcdB6aAf729905492bdc6376DBe2dd on the Mainnet ETH, 0x0d3726e5a9f37234d6b55216fc971d30f150a60f on the xDai chain). Set the gas limit to four times bigger than the gas estimator suggests.
