V4 Technical Maintenance Updates

Summary

This thread will be used for technical maintenance updates related to Aave V4 to keep V4 maintenance visible, structured, and easy for the DAO to track.

Context

Aave V4 introduces new operational surfaces across Hubs, Spokes, price feeds, permissions, configurator roles, and cross-chain deployment logic. Some updates will be routine maintenance rather than new governance decisions. Keeping those updates in one thread gives the DAO a clear place to review what is changing, why it is needed, and how execution is expected to happen.

Scope

This thread is intended for updates that are technical, limited in scope, and not expected to create material community disagreement.

Examples include price feed updates, oracle adapter changes, permission alignment, configurator role updates, Spoke or Hub maintenance, deployment consistency fixes, address registrations, and other changes required to keep V4 components aligned with the approved architecture.

This thread is not intended for new market listings, new collateral onboarding, risk parameter changes that materially affect users, budget approvals, incentive programs, or any change that should go through the normal governance process.

For each maintenance item, Aave Labs will post a standalone update in this thread with the relevant context, affected components, technical specification, execution path, and expected user impact.

Where the update requires an onchain governance proposal, the post will be shared before the AIP is created. Where the update is executed through an authorized operational multisig or Security Council path, the post will explain that execution path and why it applies.

If timing or security constraints require execution before public disclosure, the update will be posted as soon as practical after execution.

As a baseline, maintenance updates will remain open for community review before execution or AIP creation when timing allows. If there are material concerns from the DAO, the item will be moved into the applicable ARFC, Snapshot, or AIP process instead of continuing as a maintenance update.

Aave V4 Spoke Oracle Feed Maintenance

Summary

This post outlines a technical maintenance update to the price feeds used by Aave V4 Spokes.

The update will replace current price feeds with SVR-related feeds for all supported V4 Spoke assets where an SVR-related feed already exists in V3. Execution will be handled through the Aave V4 Security Council.

Motivation

Aave V4 currently uses Spoke-specific oracle configurations. This maintenance update aligns eligible V4 Spoke asset price feeds with the SVR-related feed setup used across the protocol where applicable. Over time, SVR feeds will be applied to more assets. This preserves a consistent oracle configuration for liquidators.

Specification

The Aave V4 Protocol Security Council will execute a transaction bundle that updates price feeds on V4 Spokes for all supported assets that have SVR-related feeds available.

No user positions are modified.

The execution path uses the Aave V4 Security Council, consistent with the current V4 operational model for technical maintenance during the early hardening phase.

The following price feeds will be replaced:
