Quick assessment

Affected
ZcashFoundation zebra
Exploitation
No confirmed in-the-wild exploitation; assess based on exposure
Recommended action
Check the vendor advisory and references for a fixed version. If immediate upgrade is impossible, restrict exposure and increase monitoring.

在 Zebra 6.3.0 之前的版本中存在保护机制失效漏洞,允许未经验证的节点通过提供无效的广播区块来逃避行为评分(misbehavior scoring)。在入站清理(inbound cleanup)步骤中,系统错误地将 强制转换为 ,并丢弃了相应的行为评分记录。因此,攻击者可以反复强制发起区块下载和 Equihash 验证过程,而不会被系统封禁。

Vulnerability Title
Zebra before 6.3.0 Peer Misbehavior Ban Bypass via Gossiped Blocks
Source: CVE Program / CVE List V5
Vulnerability Description
Zebra before 6.3.0 contains a protection mechanism failure that allows unauthenticated peers to evade misbehavior scoring by supplying invalid gossiped blocks. The inbound cleanup step wrongly downcasts RouterError to VerifyBlockError and discards the score, so attackers can repeatedly force block download and Equihash verification without being banned.
