Description

Context

Recently, a user encountered the following error when trying to sign the second transaction to transfer calls with Squidrouter. The previous transaction to approve the transfer worked fine.

It seems like this is a known bug with MetaMask, see https://github.com/MetaMask/metamask-extension/issues/28518.

TODO

  • Apparently this issue was mitigated in MetaMask version 12.9.2, see this comment. We should reach out to the user and ask which version of the MetaMask extension was used.
  • Alternatively, we can add extra handling and check for the specific wording in the details of the error.
