 ### Fixed
 * Sanitize identifiers and escape string literals in generated TypeScript bindings to prevent code injection via malicious contract spec names. `sanitizeIdentifier` now strips non-identifier characters, and a new `escapeStringLiteral` helper escapes quotes and newlines in string contexts ([#1345](https://github.com/stellar/js-stellar-sdk/pull/1345)).
+* `AssembledTransaction.fromXDR()` and `fromJSON()` now validate that the deserialized transaction targets the expected contract, rejecting mismatched contract IDs and non-invokeContract operations. ([#1349](https://github.com/stellar/js-stellar-sdk/pull/1349)).
