ACLManager: RISK_ADMIN_ROLE grants, Sep 2026 — decoded
A forum post decodes three RISK_ADMIN_ROLE grants on Aave V3 Ethereum since 2 September 2026, all sent by the governance Executor, and notes the role can change caps and risk parameters without a full vote.
A forum post decodes recent ACLManager role activity on Aave V3 Ethereum. It lists three RISK_ADMIN_ROLE grants since 2 September 2026: two addresses in one transaction on 2 September (block 25891729) and one on 30 September (block 26089561) to a verified contract named RiskSteward with 20,061 bytes of deployed code. All three were sent by the governance Executor, so the post says they passed governance rather than originating from a standalone admin key. It explains that RISK_ADMIN can change supply and borrow caps, LTVs, liquidation thresholds and reserve configuration without a full governance vote, that routing through a RiskSteward contract constrains the holder, and that each grant still widens the set of actors who can move risk parameters between votes. The author says it was decoded from RoleGranted logs and that it did not review the RiskSteward internals or storage layouts, so it makes no claim about that contract's limits. It notes the related ARFC thread is closed with AIP #523 executed. Open questions: the exact constraints of the steward contract.
