[PROPOSAL][DRAFT] Grant Eureka Security Council 08-wasm AuthZ permissions
Proposal TL;DR - To match Eureka’s security response setup on Ethereum and enable timely security upgrades on Cosmos Hub, this proposal grants the Eureka Security Council AuthZ (on behalf of the gov module address) permissions on IBC 08-wasm to (1) store new wasm binaries used by 08-wasm light clients and (2) migrate existing light client contracts. This avoids the current requirement of two sequential 7-day governance proposals (store, then migrate) or coordinated binary upgrades, both of which are too slow and operationally risky. The voting period for this proposal is 7 days. Motivation Granting scoped AuthZ to the Eureka Security Council will improve the Hub’s security posture and responsiveness by enabling: Timely storage of new 08-wasm light client binaries when critical vulnerabilities or consensus changes are discovered Safe, auditable migrations of existing light client contracts to patched versions without halting the chain Operational parity with Eureka’s Ethereum-side security council so both ends of the bridge can be upgraded within the same response window As Eureka connectivity expands, light clients are a critical security boundary.

Cool proposal!
POSTHUMAN will vote YES on this Prop!
We support this initiative, provided that strict audit and transparent review frameworks for all actions of the Security Council are implemented, to eliminate the possibility of abuse and maintain trust in network security management.
