Aave says V3.8 security upgrade won't block flash-loan liquidations

  • —Guard excludes flash-loan entry points, keeping callbacks intact
  • —Implementation uses transient storage via EIP-1153, scoped to a transaction
  • —Snapshot vote, Certora audit and on-chain proposal still ahead
Why it matters: Flash loans underpin liquidation bots and arbitrage; blocking them could hurt protocol liquidity and integrator operations.
