CVE-2026-34202

Zebra node crash — V5 transaction hash panic (P2P reachable)

Published Mar 31, 2026 CVSS 4.0 · 9.2 Critical EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
ZEBRA is a Zcash node written entirely in Rust. Prior to zebrad version 4.3.0 and zebra-chain version 6.0.1, a vulnerability in Zebra's transaction processing logic allows a remote, unauthenticated attacker to cause a Zebra node to panic (crash). This is triggered by sending a specially crafted V5 transaction that passes initial deserialization but fails during transaction ID calculation. This issue has been patched in zebrad version 4.3.0 and zebra-chain version 6.0.1.
