Litecoin: Zero-day vulnerability triggers DoS attack, 13-block reorganization rollback invalid transactions


On April 26, Litecoin announced an update stating that a zero-day vulnerability caused a DoS attack, disrupting major mining pools. Unupdated mining nodes allowed an invalid MWEB transaction, and related funds were transferred to a third-party DEX. A 13-block reorganization has rolled back these invalid transactions, which will not be included in the main chain. All valid transactions during this period remain unaffected. The vulnerability has been fully patched, and the network is currently operating normally.
