Errors /
invalid_exact_evm_non_canonical_signature
The signature is a valid shape but uses the high-s form, which is rejected.
| Reported by | the facilitator, during verify |
| Usually fixed by | the buyer |
Cause
A plain ECDSA signature from an ordinary wallet must be in canonical low-s form. Tokens such as USDC reject the other form on-chain.
Fix
- Buyer: sign with a standard library such as viem or ethers, which produce canonical signatures. Hand-rolled signing code is the usual cause.
