CVE-2026-104427 PUBLISHED

Zebra before 6.1.0 Chain Stall via Stale parent_error_map Entry

Assigner: VulnCheck
Reserved: 02.10.2026 Published: 02.10.2026 Updated: 02.10.2026

Zebra before 6.1.0 contains an incomplete cleanup vulnerability in the state write task that allows remote unauthenticated peers to stall node synchronization by poisoning parent_error_map. Attackers can deliver a coinbase-malleated block sharing a canonical block's hash before it propagates, causing the next canonical block to be rejected and stalling the node for roughly 2,000 blocks.
