CVE-2026-123558 Details
Description
Zebra zebrad before 7.0.0 contains a denial of service vulnerability that allows a malicious peer to stall checkpoint sync by cancelling the verifier rewind after a failed commit. Attackers can serve a forged block with altered authorizing data plus a restart-triggering block, leaving the verifier rejecting honest blocks until restart.
A denial-of-service vulnerability has been identified in Zebra 'zebrad' versions prior to 7.0.0. This vulnerability allows a malicious peer to disrupt the checkpoint synchronization process by canceling the verifier's rewind after a commit failure. Attackers can exploit this by sending a forged block with modified authorizing data, along with a block that triggers a restart, causing the verifier to reject legitimate blocks until the node is restarted.
Upgrade to Zebra version 7.0.0, as there is no patch available for the 6.4.x series.
