CVE-2026-58262Klever-Go: PubKeysBitmap padding bits bypass the BLS signature quorum

Updated under an hour ago ()

Does this affect you?

It affects klever-io klever-go. Add what you run to find out whether that includes you.

No exploitation reported and no EPSS estimate yet.

Klever-Go is the Go implementation of the Klever blockchain protocol. Prior to 1.7.20, header signature verification counts the unused padding bits of the PubKeysBitmap toward the two-thirds validator quorum. These padding bits do not correspond to any validator and are ignored by the actual BLS aggregate-signature check, so a malicious or compromised block producer can set them to reach the required quorum while gathering fewer genuine validator signatures than the protocol demands. As a result, nodes that import or intercept the header accept it as correctly signed without a real two-thirds quorum, weakening consensus safety and undermining finality. This issue is fixed in version 1.7.20.
