MEDIUMCVSS 5.9/10

Last modified

CVE-2026-104426 is a medium-severity vulnerability rated 5.9/10 on the CVSS scale. Zebra before 6.1.0 contains an inefficient algorithmic complexity vulnerability in remaining_transaction_value that clones the entire block-level spent-UTXO map per transaction during contextual verification. Attackers can mine or seed the mempool with roughly 26,000 minimal single-input transactions in one block, stalling every validating node for over 52 seconds..
