CVSS 3.1
5.9 mediumCVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:HCVE-2022-29177
Medium (5.9) in ethereum go ethereum. EPSS 1.2% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days. Fixed in github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum 1.10.17.
Go Ethereum is the official Golang implementation of the Ethereum protocol. Prior to version 1.10.17, a vulnerable node, if configured to use high verbosity logging, can be made to crash when handling specially crafted p2p messages sent from an attacker node. Version 1.10.17 contains a patch that addresses the problem. As a workaround, setting loglevel to default level (`INFO`) makes the node not vulnerable to this attack.
