Summary
bsv-sdk ARC broadcaster treats INVALID/MALFORMED/ORPHAN responses as successful broadcasts
Details

ARC broadcaster treats failure statuses as successful broadcasts

Summary

BSV::Network::ARC's failure detection only recognises REJECTED and DOUBLE_SPEND_ATTEMPTED. ARC responses with txStatus values of INVALID, MALFORMED, MINED_IN_STALE_BLOCK, or any ORPHAN-containing extraInfo / txStatus are silently treated as successful broadcasts. Applications that gate actions on broadcaster success are tricked into trusting transactions that were never accepted by the network.

Details

lib/bsv/network/arc.rb (lines ~74-100 in the affected code) uses a narrow failure predicate compared to the TypeScript reference SDK. The TS broadcaster additionally recognises:

  • INVALID
  • MALFORMED
  • MINED_IN_STALE_BLOCK
  • Any response containing ORPHAN in extraInfo or txStatus

The Ruby implementation omits all of these, so ARC responses carrying any of these statuses are returned to the caller as successful broadcasts.

Additional divergences in the same module compound the risk:

  • Content-Type is sent as application/octet-stream; the TS reference sends application/json with a { rawTx: <hex> } body (EF form where source transactions are available).
  • The headers XDeployment-ID, X-CallbackUrl, and X-CallbackToken are not sent.

The immediate security-relevant defect is the missing failure statuses; the other divergences are fixed in the same patch for protocol compliance.

Impact

Integrity: callers receive a success response for broadcasts that were actually rejected by the ARC endpoint. Applications and downstream gems that gate actions on broadcaster success — releasing goods, marking invoices paid, treating a token as minted, progressing a workflow — are tricked into trusting transactions that were never broadcast.

This is an integrity bug with security consequences. It does not disclose information (confidentiality unaffected) and does not affect availability.

CVSS rationale

AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N7.5 (High)

  • AV:N — network-reachable.
  • AC:L — no specialised access conditions are required. Triggering any of the unhandled failure statuses is not meaningfully harder than broadcasting a transaction at all: a malformed or invalid transaction, an orphan condition from a transient fork, or a hostile/misbehaving ARC endpoint returning one of these statuses is sufficient. The attacker does not need to defeat any mitigation or race a specific window — the bug is that the code path doesn't exist at all.
  • PR:N — no privileges required.
  • UI:N — no user interaction.
  • C:N — no confidentiality impact.
  • I:H — downstream integrity decisions are taken on non-broadcast transactions.
  • A:N — no availability impact.

Affected versions

The ARC broadcaster was introduced in commit a1f2e62 ("feat(network): add ARC broadcaster with injectable HTTP client") on 2026-02-08 and first released in v0.1.0. The narrow failure predicate has been present since introduction. Every release up to and including v0.8.1 is affected.

Affected range: >= 0.1.0, < 0.8.2.

Patches

Upgrade to bsv-sdk >= 0.8.2. The fix:

  • Expands the failure predicate (REJECTED_STATUSES + ORPHAN substring check on both txStatus and extraInfo) to include INVALID, MALFORMED, MINED_IN_STALE_BLOCK, and any orphan-containing response, matching the TypeScript reference.
  • Switches Content-Type to application/json with a { rawTx: <hex> } body, preferring Extended Format (BRC-30) hex when every input has source_satoshis and source_locking_script populated and falling back to plain raw-tx hex otherwise.
  • Adds support for the XDeployment-ID (default: random bsv-ruby-sdk-<hex>), X-CallbackUrl, and X-CallbackToken headers via new constructor keyword arguments.

Fixed in sgbett/bsv-ruby-sdk#306.

Note for bsv-wallet consumers

The sibling gem bsv-wallet (published from the same repository) is not independently vulnerable — lib/bsv/network/arc.rb is not bundled into the wallet gem's files list. However, bsv-wallet runtime-depends on bsv-sdk, so a consumer of bsv-wallet that also invokes the ARC broadcaster is transitively exposed whenever Gemfile.lock resolves to a vulnerable bsv-sdk version. bsv-wallet >= 0.3.4 tightens its bsv-sdk constraint to >= 0.8.2, < 1.0, so upgrading either gem is sufficient to pull in the fix.

Workarounds

If upgrading is not immediately possible:

  • Verify broadcast results out-of-band (e.g. query a block explorer or WhatsOnChain) before treating a transaction as broadcast.
  • Do not gate integrity-critical actions solely on the ARC broadcaster's success response.

Credit

Identified during the 2026-04-08 cross-SDK compliance review, tracked as finding F5.13.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-01-15 21:31 – Updated: 2026-01-15 21:31
VLAI
Details

An Improper Check for Unusual or Exceptional Conditions vulnerability in the routing protocol daemon (rpd) of Juniper Networks Junos OS and Junos OS Evolved allows an unauthenticated, network-based attacker to cause an availability impact for downstream devices.

When an affected device receives a specific optional, transitive BGP attribute over an existing BGP session, it will be erroneously modified before propagation to peers. When the attribute is detected as malformed by the peers, these peers will most likely terminate the BGP sessions with the affected devices and thereby cause an availability impact due to the resulting routing churn.

This issue affects:

Junos OS:

  • all versions before 22.4R3-S8,
  • 23.2 versions before 23.2R2-S5
  • 23.4 versions before 23.4R2-S6,
  • 24.2 versions before 24.2R2-S2,
  • 24.4 versions before 24.4R2;

Junos OS Evolved: 

  • all versions before 22.4R3-S8-EVO,
  • 23.2 versions before 23.2R2-S5-EVO,
  • 23.4 versions before 23.4R2-S6-EVO,
  • 24.2 versions before 24.2R2-S2-EVO,
  • 24.4 versions before 24.4R2-EVO.

Summary
BuildKit vulnerable to possible panic when incorrect parameters sent from frontend
Details

Impact

A malicious BuildKit client or frontend could craft a request that could lead to BuildKit daemon crashing with a panic.

Patches

The issue has been fixed in v0.12.5

Workarounds

Avoid using BuildKit frontends from untrusted sources. A frontend image is usually specified as the #syntax line on your Dockerfile, or with --frontend flag when using buildctl build command.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2022-05-13 01:11 – Updated: 2022-05-13 01:11
VLAI
Details

When configuring a stateless firewall filter in Junos OS, terms named using the format "internal-n" (e.g. "internal-1", "internal-2", etc.) are silently ignored. No warning is issued during configuration, and the config is committed without error, but the filter criteria will match all packets leading to unexpected results. Affected releases are Juniper Networks Junos OS: All versions prior to and including 12.3; 14.1X53 versions prior to 14.1X53-D130, 14.1X53-D49; 15.1 versions prior to 15.1F6-S12, 15.1R7-S4; 15.1X49 versions prior to 15.1X49-D161, 15.1X49-D170; 15.1X53 versions prior to 15.1X53-D236, 15.1X53-D496, 15.1X53-D69; 16.1 versions prior to 16.1R7-S4, 16.1R7-S5; 16.2 versions prior to 16.2R2-S9; 17.1 versions prior to 17.1R3; 17.2 versions prior to 17.2R1-S8, 17.2R3-S1; 17.3 versions prior to 17.3R3-S4; 17.4 versions prior to 17.4R1-S7, 17.4R2-S3; 18.1 versions prior to 18.1R2-S4, 18.1R3-S4; 18.2 versions prior to 18.2R1-S5, 18.2R2-S1; 18.2X75 versions prior to 18.2X75-D40; 18.3 versions prior to 18.3R1-S3; 18.4 versions prior to 18.4R1-S1, 18.4R1-S2.

Details

In Contiki 3.0, Telnet option negotiation is mishandled. During negotiation between a server and a client, the server may fail to give the WILL/WONT or DO/DONT response for DO and WILL commands because of improper handling of exception condition, which leads to property violations and denial of service. Specifically, a server sometimes sends no response, because a fixed buffer space is available for all responses and that space may have been exhausted.

Mitigation MIT-3
Requirements

Strategy: Language Selection

  • Use a language that does not allow this weakness to occur or provides constructs that make this weakness easier to avoid.
  • Choose languages with features such as exception handling that force the programmer to anticipate unusual conditions that may generate exceptions. Custom exceptions may need to be developed to handle unusual business-logic conditions. Be careful not to pass sensitive exceptions back to the user (CWE-209, CWE-248).
Mitigation
Implementation

Check the results of all functions that return a value and verify that the value is expected.

Mitigation
Implementation

If using exception handling, catch and throw specific exceptions instead of overly-general exceptions (CWE-396, CWE-397). Catch and handle exceptions as locally as possible so that exceptions do not propagate too far up the call stack (CWE-705). Avoid unchecked or uncaught exceptions where feasible (CWE-248).

Mitigation MIT-39
Implementation
  • Ensure that error messages only contain minimal details that are useful to the intended audience and no one else. The messages need to strike the balance between being too cryptic (which can confuse users) or being too detailed (which may reveal more than intended). The messages should not reveal the methods that were used to determine the error. Attackers can use detailed information to refine or optimize their original attack, thereby increasing their chances of success.
  • If errors must be captured in some detail, record them in log messages, but consider what could occur if the log messages can be viewed by attackers. Highly sensitive information such as passwords should never be saved to log files.
  • Avoid inconsistent messaging that might accidentally tip off an attacker about internal state, such as whether a user account exists or not.
  • Exposing additional information to a potential attacker in the context of an exceptional condition can help the attacker determine what attack vectors are most likely to succeed beyond DoS.
Mitigation MIT-5
Implementation

Strategy: Input Validation

  • Assume all input is malicious. Use an "accept known good" input validation strategy, i.e., use a list of acceptable inputs that strictly conform to specifications. Reject any input that does not strictly conform to specifications, or transform it into something that does.
  • When performing input validation, consider all potentially relevant properties, including length, type of input, the full range of acceptable values, missing or extra inputs, syntax, consistency across related fields, and conformance to business rules. As an example of business rule logic, "boat" may be syntactically valid because it only contains alphanumeric characters, but it is not valid if the input is only expected to contain colors such as "red" or "blue."
  • Do not rely exclusively on looking for malicious or malformed inputs. This is likely to miss at least one undesirable input, especially if the code's environment changes. This can give attackers enough room to bypass the intended validation. However, denylists can be useful for detecting potential attacks or determining which inputs are so malformed that they should be rejected outright.
Mitigation MIT-38
Architecture and Design Implementation

If the program must fail, ensure that it fails gracefully (fails closed). There may be a temptation to simply let the program fail poorly in cases such as low memory conditions, but an attacker may be able to assert control before the software has fully exited. Alternately, an uncontrolled failure could cause cascading problems with other downstream components; for example, the program could send a signal to a downstream process so the process immediately knows that a problem has occurred and has a better chance of recovery.

Mitigation
Architecture and Design

Use system limits, which should help to prevent resource exhaustion. However, the product should still handle low resource conditions since they may still occur.

No CAPEC attack patterns related to this CWE.
