Arbitrum halts new Stylus contract activations on Arbitrum One and Nova in Oct. 2 security move

AI Market Summary
Arbitrum's Security Council temporarily paused new Stylus contract activations on Arbitrum One and Nova to mitigate a WebAssembly-based liveness/DoS risk. Existing Stylus contracts continue running and standard EVM/Solidity activity is unaffected, but the freeze blocks new Stylus apps and upgrades from going live until safeguards are implemented. The action also adds a BoLD proof safeguard that could delay unconfirmed withdrawals under edge-case contradictions.

Arbitrum’s Security Council took emergency action on Oct. 2 to pause new Stylus contract activations on Arbitrum One and Arbitrum Nova, citing security concerns about handcrafted WebAssembly programs that could threaten chain liveness. Stylus, launched in September 2024, allows developers to build Ethereum-compatible smart contracts using languages such as Rust. Activations normally last 365 days, while keepalive renewals remain permissionless. The move is the latest in a recent string of security-related incidents involving Arbitrum.
