CVE-2026-123560
📛 CVE Title
Zebra before 7.0.0 Sync Denial of Service via Forged Checkpoint Block Body
Description
Zebra before 7.0.0 contains an incomplete cleanup vulnerability that allows unauthenticated peers to stall initial sync by serving a forged checkpoint block body. Attackers can supply a body with forged authorizing data near the final checkpoint, leaving rejected hashes in the sent-hash set so the node stops requesting blocks until restart.
