Does this affect you?

It affects ZcashFoundation zebra. Add what you run to find out whether that includes you.

No exploitation reported and no EPSS estimate yet.

Zebra before 6.1.0 contains an incomplete cleanup vulnerability in the state write task that allows remote unauthenticated peers to stall node synchronization by poisoning parent_error_map. Attackers can deliver a coinbase-malleated block sharing a canonical block's hash before it propagates, causing the next canonical block to be rejected and stalling the node for roughly 2,000 blocks.
