CVE-2026-35468
nimiq/core-rs-albatross is a Rust implementation of the Nimiq Proof-of-Stake protocol based on the Albatross consensus algorithm. Prior to version 1.3.0, two peer-facing consensus request handlers assume that the history index is always available and call blockchain.history_store.history_index().unwrap() directly. That assumption is false by construction. HistoryStoreProxy::history_index() explicitly returns None for the valid HistoryStoreProxy::WithoutIndex state. when a full node is syncing or otherwise running without the history index, a remote peer can send RequestTransactionsProof or RequestTransactionReceiptsByAddress and trigger an Option::unwrap() panic on the request path. This issue has been patched in version 1.3.0.
CVSS
- Versión: 3.1
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H
- Puntuación base: 7.5
Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)
- Probabilidad de explotación en los próximos 30 días: 0.63%
- Percentil entre todas las CVEs puntuadas: 48
- Fecha de la puntuación: 6/10/2026

"value": "nimiq/core-rs-albatross es una implementación en Rust del protocolo Nimiq Proof-of-Stake basado en el algoritmo de consenso Albatross. Antes de la versión 1.3.0, dos manejadores de solicitudes de consenso orientados a pares asumen que el índice de historial siempre está disponible y llaman directamente a blockchain.history_store.history_index().unwrap(). Esa suposición es falsa por construcción. HistoryStoreProxy::history_index() devuelve explícitamente None para el estado válido HistoryStoreProxy::WithoutIndex. Cuando un nodo completo está sincronizando o de otro modo ejecutándose sin el índice de historial, un par remoto puede enviar RequestTransactionsProof o RequestTransactionReceiptsByAddress y desencadenar un pánico de Option::unwrap() en la ruta de solicitud. Este problema ha sido parcheado en la versión 1.3.0."
