CVE-2026-54541

Nimiq is a Rust implementation of the Nimiq Proof-of-Stake protocol based on the Albatross consensus algorithm. Prior to 1.6.0, a malicious state-sync peer can crash a syncing node by sending a crafted TrieChunk proof containing two TrieProofNode values with identical keys. TrieProof::verify call...

Impact A malicious peer acting as a state-sync source can crash a syncing node by sending a crafted TrieChunk whose proof contains two TrieProofNodes with identical keys. TrieProof::verify calls TrieProofNode::child index primitives/src/trie/trie proof node.rs:94, which unconditionally unwraps...
