      "value": "Klever-Go is the Go implementation of the Klever blockchain protocol. Versions 1.7.14 through 1.7.17 are vulnerable to a nil-pointer panic triggered by a protobuf Transaction whose embedded RawData sub-message is omitted. This omission causes RawData to decode to nil. Every transaction gossiped on the Klever-Go P2P network is decoded and validated synchronously inside the libp2p pubsub topic-validator callback, where txVersionChecker.CheckTxVersion dereferences tx.RawData.Version with no nil check. Because the libp2p pubsub callback, the underlying go-libp2p-pubsub validation worker, and Klever\u0027s own network/p2p layer install no recover(), the panic propagates and crashes the entire node process. The attacker payload is a 3-byte protobuf message; no validator key, stake, funds, or on-chain account is required, and delivery aimed at enough of the BLS validator set can halt block production, resulting in a chain halt. This issue has been fixed in version 1.7.18."

  "details": "## Summary\nEvery transaction gossiped on the klever-go P2P network is decoded and validated\nsynchronously inside the libp2p pubsub topic-validator callback. The validator\n`txVersionChecker.CheckTxVersion` dereferences `tx.RawData.Version` with no nil\ncheck. A protobuf `Transaction` whose embedded `RawData` sub-message is omitted\ndecodes to `RawData == nil`, so validating it triggers a nil-pointer panic.\n\nThe libp2p pubsub callback, the underlying go-libp2p-pubsub validation worker, and\nklever\u0027s own `network/p2p` layer install no `recover()`, so the panic propagates and\ncrashes the entire node process. The attacker payload is a 3-byte protobuf message;\nno validator key, stake, funds, or on-chain account is required. Aimed at enough of\nthe BLS validator set, repeated delivery halts block production (chain halt).\n\n## Affected component\n- Root cause: `core/versioning/txVersionChecker.go:22`\n- Reached via: `core/process/transaction/interceptedTransaction.go:203` (integrity) and `:154` (CheckValidity)\n- Production tx-topic path: `core/process/interceptors/multiDataInterceptor.go:171` and `:223`\n- Unprotected caller: `network/p2p/libp2p/netMessenger.go` `pubsubCallback` (no recover)\n- Topic wiring: `core/process/factory/interceptorscontainer/baseInterceptorsContainerFactory.go` (`createOneTxInterceptor`)\n\n## Details\nSynchronous validation path, no recovery at any frame:\n\n```\nlibp2p pubsubCallback                              network/p2p/libp2p/netMessenger.go  (no recover)\n -\u003e MultiDataInterceptor.ProcessReceivedMessage    core/process/interceptors/multiDataInterceptor.go:171\n   -\u003e interceptedData(...)                          core/process/interceptors/multiDataInterceptor.go:223\n     -\u003e InterceptedTransaction.CheckValidity         core/process/transaction/interceptedTransaction.go:154\n       -\u003e integrity()                                core/process/transaction/interceptedTransaction.go:203\n         -\u003e txVersionChecker.CheckTxVersion(tx)      core/versioning/txVersionChecker.go:22   \u003c-- nil deref\n```\n\nRoot cause (`core/versioning/txVersionChecker.go`):\n```go\nfunc (tvc *txVersionChecker) CheckTxVersion(tx *transaction.Transaction) error {\n\tif tx.RawData.Version \u003c tvc.minTxVersion {   // tx.RawData is nil -\u003e panic\n\t\treturn process.ErrInvalidTransactionVersion\n\t}\n\treturn nil\n}\n```\n\n`integrity()` calls `CheckTxVersion` as its very first statement, before any\n`RawData` nil-check, and `CheckValidity()` runs before the whitelist / originator-\nelection gate in the interceptor, so node-role and whitelist restrictions do not\nprotect this path.\n\n## Preconditions\n- Attacker runs an ordinary libp2p peer reachable to the target via normal peering /\n  kad-dht discovery on the `transactions` gossip topic.\n- Production runs with `withMessageSigning = true`, which only requires the gossip\n  message to be signed by the attacker\u0027s OWN libp2p peer key (a self-generated\n  identity; NOT a validator key, NOT funded, NOT authorized).\n- No special config or feature flag; the tx interceptor is built unconditionally and\n  subscribes to `transactions` on every node.\n\n## Impact\n- Deterministic, immediate crash of any targeted node (validator, sentry, or\n  observer) from a single ~3-byte message.\n- Gossipsub validates before relaying, so the victim does not forward the crashing\n  message; the attacker delivers it directly to each target (one tiny message/node).\n- With auto-restart (systemd), re-sending sustains the outage.\n- Directed at \u003e 1/3 of the BLS validator set, this prevents consensus and halts the chain.\n- NOTE: the HTTP `POST /transaction/send` path is NOT crash-exploitable - the REST\n  server uses `gin.Default()` (Recovery middleware) and returns HTTP 500. The\n  exploitable vector is the P2P interceptor.\n\n## Exploit cost / attack complexity\n- Cost: negligible (one self-signed libp2p peer; 3-byte payload; no gas/capital).\n- Complexity: LOW. Unauthenticated, remote, deterministic.\n\n## PoC-Source\n\nScenario\n- Build the malicious transaction as it appears on the wire: a protobuf `Transaction`\n  with `RawData` omitted (plus a throwaway `Signature` so the batch entry looks like a\n  real tx). With the production proto marshalizer this encodes to 3 bytes\n  (`12 01 78`) and round-trips back to `RawData == nil`.\n- Feed it through the REAL production interceptors. The `transactions` gossip topic is\n  served by a `MultiDataInterceptor` (`baseInterceptorsContainerFactory.go`,\n  `createOneTxInterceptor`); the test wraps the tx in a `Batch` exactly like a bulk-tx\n  gossip message and calls `ProcessReceivedMessage`, which is precisely what the\n  panic-free libp2p `pubsubCallback` invokes in production. A second test drives the\n  generic `SingleDataInterceptor` to show the bug is in the shared validation chain.\n- The data factory is a faithful copy of the production `interceptedTxDataFactory.Create`:\n  it builds a genuine `*InterceptedTransaction`. No validation behavior is stubbed;\n  only leaf crypto/marshal helpers use the repo\u0027s own in-tree mocks. The panic occurs\n  on the first line of `integrity()`, upstream of any mock.\n\nHow to run\n1. `git clone https://github.com/klever-io/klever-go \u0026\u0026 cd klever-go`\n   (Go toolchain matching go.mod `go 1.25.7`; verified locally on go1.26.3.)\n2. Save the source below as `core/process/interceptors/poc_nil_rawdata_dos_test.go`.\n3. Run either (separately - the first panic aborts the test binary):\n   - Production tx-topic path: `go test ./core/process/interceptors/ -run TestPoC_NilRawData_MultiDataInterceptor -v`\n   - Generic path:            `go test ./core/process/interceptors/ -run TestPoC_NilRawData_SingleDataInterceptor -v`\n- Dependencies: none beyond the repo\u0027s own go.mod (uses in-repo mocks only).\n\nFull PoC source (`poc_nil_rawdata_dos_test.go`):\n\n```go\n// Target component:    klever-go P2P transaction interceptor (network availability)\n//                      core/process/transaction/interceptedTransaction.go\n//                      core/versioning/txVersionChecker.go:22\n// Vulnerability type:  Unauthenticated remote Denial-of-Service (nil-pointer panic / chain-wide node crash)\n//                      CWE-476 (NULL Pointer Dereference) reached from untrusted P2P input.\n//\n// Summary:\n//   Every gossiped transaction is decoded and validated synchronously inside the\n//   libp2p pubsub topic-validator callback\n//   (network/p2p/libp2p/netMessenger.go -\u003e pubsubCallback).

the exact frame the recover-free libp2p pubsub\n  callback executes in production. A recover()-less crash here = full node process exit.\n- Round-trip check (production `tools/marshal.ProtoMarshalizer`): the malicious tx is\n  3 bytes `12 01 78` and decodes to `RawData == nil`, confirming the trigger is a\n  valid, attacker-craftable wire message (not a malformed blob rejected earlier).\n\n## Suggested fix\nPrimary (root cause) - make `CheckTxVersion` nil-safe / reject `RawData == nil` early:\n```go\nfunc (tvc *txVersionChecker) CheckTxVersion(tx *transaction.Transaction) error {\n\tif tx == nil || tx.RawData == nil {\n\t\treturn process.ErrInvalidTransactionVersion\n\t}\n\tif tx.RawData.Version \u003c tvc.minTxVersion {\n\t\treturn process.ErrInvalidTransactionVersion\n\t}\n\treturn nil\n}\n```\nReturning a sentinel error here is already handled by the interceptors (they\nblacklist peers that send wrong-version transactions).\n\nDefense-in-depth:\n- Wrap the synchronous body of `pubsubCallback` (and/or `ProcessReceivedMessage`) in a\n  `recover()` so a single malformed message can never abort the process.\n- Audit the other direct `inTx.tx.RawData.*` dereferences in\n  `interceptedTransaction.go` (chainID/sender/contract/nonce/fee getters) for the same\n  nil-input class.\n\n## Duplicate check (vs published advisories)\nChecked against the 3 published advisories (GHSA-jc6w-wmfc-fh33 / CVE-2026-46403,\nGHSA-87m7-qffr-542v / CVE-2026-44697, GHSA-74m6-4hjp-7226). This is NOT a duplicate:\ndifferent root cause (nil `RawData` deref vs gzip OOM / throttler accounting / VM\nread-only isolation); the advisory texts never mention `RawData`, `CheckTxVersion`,\n`txVersionChecker`, or any nil/NULL deref. Those three advisories\u0027 fixes are already\npresent in the reviewed tree, yet `txVersionChecker.go:22` remains unpatched.
