libp2p: PeerStore accepts attacker-signed PeerRecords for a victim peer ID and stores certified attacker addresses

Summary @libp2p/peer-store accepts a signed PeerRecord whose envelope is signed by one peer but whose payload claims a different peer ID. The vulnerable consumePeerRecord path verifies the envelope signature, but does not verify that the envelope signer is the same peer as the wrapped...

CVE-2026-86039 libp2p: PeerStore accepts attacker-signed PeerRecords for a victim peer ID and stores certified attacker addresses

libp2p is a JavaScript implementation of the libp2p networking stack. From 8.0.0 until 12.0.24, @libp2p/peer-store in packages/peer-store/src/index.ts uses consumePeerRecord to verify a RecordEnvelope signature but does not require PeerRecord.peerId in the signed payload to equal the signer peer ...

GHSA-WC36-XGCC-JWPR Failure to verify the public key of a `SignedEnvelope` against the `PeerId` in a `PeerRecord`

Affected versions of this crate did not check that the public key the signature was created with matches the peer ID of the peer record. Any combination was considered valid. This allows an attacker to republish an existing PeerRecord with a different PeerId...
