Metamask Extension Bug Permissions Removing Hardware Wallet Acc

Metamask Extension Bug Permissions Removing Hardware Wallet Acc Symptom Users experience an issue where removing hardware wallet accounts from Metamask does not clear the associated permissions, resulting in unexpected behavior and potential security risks. Technical Root Cause The error occurs due to a bug in the Metamask extension, where the permissions tied to a hardware wallet account are not properly removed when the account is disconnected. Manual Overrides Attempt to manually revoke permissions by using the eth_revokePermission RPC method. Use the following JSONRPC request to clear permissions: json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "eth_revokePermission", "params": ["hardware_wallet_account_address"], "id": 1 } Utilize the eth_accounts method to verify if the hardware wallet account has been properly disconnected. Prerequisites: Metamask extension installed and configured Hardware wallet account connected to Metamask Basic understanding of JSONRPC requests For further troubleshooting, consider accessing the Ethereum network via an external console.
