Vulnerability Description
Zebra before 6.2.1 contains an incomplete cleanup vulnerability that allows unauthenticated peers to block downloading of valid blocks by leaving rejected hashes in SentHashes. Attackers can send a contextually invalid block sharing an honest block's header hash, causing Request::KnownBlock to skip the honest block and keep nodes behind the tip.
