**Advisory ID:** ASA-2026-002 **Component:** ICS20 Precompile **Status:** Resolved **Published:** March 2026 **Contact:** [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected]) --- # Security Advisory ASA-2026-002 **Status: Resolved. A patch is available and all known affected chains have either applied mitigations or [upgraded](https://github.com/cosmos/evm/releases/tag/v0.6.0).** | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | **Severity** | Critical | | **Affected Component** | ICS20 Precompile | | **Affected Versions** | Cosmos EVM implementations including the ICS20 precompile | | **Patched Version** | [v0.6.0](https://github.com/cosmos/evm/releases/tag/v0.6.0) | | **First Reported** | January 21, 2026 | | **Public Disclosure** | March 2026 | --- ## Introduction Recently, there was a vulnerability affecting a feature used by some chains built on the Cosmos EVM stack. Working together with ecosystem partners and affected teams, particularly Saga, B-Harvest, Mantra, Zellic and Sherlock, Cosmos Labs investigated the issue, coordinated mitigations, developed a permanent fix, and issued a patch to affected chains. We appreciate the collaboration of the teams who assisted during the investigation and response process and thank our ecosystem partners for their support in coordinating mitigation and validation efforts. --- ## Remediation Summary On January 21, 2026, Cosmos Labs was notified of suspicious activity on a network running the affected implementation. The issue resulted in financial loss on the Saga EVM network. After confirming the vulnerability, Cosmos Labs coordinated with the affected chain team and ecosystem partners to investigate the issue, deploy mitigations, and assist other chains running the affected code. Cosmos Labs contacted chains known to be running versions containing the affected component to verify their configurations and support mitigation where necessary. At the time of publication, all known affected chains have either applied mi
