Ledger Wallet - UI Design Choice Creates Vulnerability
Somewhere in one of the recent updated to Ledger Wallet desktop software the design team at Ledger has made some workflow and visual UI changes which actually impact security.
I noticed nobody is talking about it so decided to post for comment.
The issue is around how the recipient address or what is now displayed as "To" address is displayed in the software. It's not shown to the user, but the user is told to verify the address on the physical hardware signer against a truncated version of the address shown in the Wallet software, making that process almost impossible.
See graphical explanation.
