nimiq-blockchain provides persistent block storage for Nimiq's Rust implementation. Prior to version 1.3.0, uses an to enforce invariants about (must be within the macro block being pushed and within the same epoch). During history sync, a peer can influence the input passed into , and a malformed history list can violate these invariants and trigger a panic. calls before comparing the computed history root against the macro block header ( ), so the panic can happen before later rejection checks run. The patch for this vulnerability is included as part of v1.3.0. No known workarounds are available.
Grounded briefings
Catalog interpretations for three audiences. Each brief cites ingested metadata and the original advisories below. They are not independent research and they do not invent exploit steps.
Executive
CVE-2026-34066 is a medium public vulnerability record for nimiq nimiq proof-of-stake. It is not currently listed in the CISA Known Exploited catalog. Check the linked vendor or CERT advisories for patch status. This summary is a catalog interpretation of the ingested metadata and cites the original advisories below.
System administrator
Identify whether nimiq nimiq proof-of-stake is in your estate, then compare installed versions with the affected ranges. Affected packages or ranges on record: nimiq/nimiq proof-of-stake. Check the linked vendor or CERT advisories for patch status. Prefer the vendor or distribution advisory linked in Sources before changing production systems. This is a catalog interpretation, not a runbook.
Security analyst
Signals on file: CVSS 5.3. It is not currently listed in the CISA Known Exploited catalog. Weakness classes: CWE-20, CWE-617, CWE-754. Sources contributing to this record: cve_org, nvd.
