The contract field in consortium v2 consensus engine is written under the call to Authorize. The Authorize function is called only once in startup and can run concurrently with other funtions that read the contract field which leads to data race. We move this write under the mutex lock and the read of this field into readSignerAndContract function to avoid data race.
