For bytes that are not exactly one transaction (a transaction followed by bytes, a cut transaction, bytes that are no transaction at all), , , and could answer valid, even with no BUMP and no parent in the BEEF, and, where the entry carried a BUMP index, treat the hash of those bytes as a proven transaction id; an entry that names it as a parent was answered valid too. The wire readers ( , , , ) parse every entry and are not affected. Reaching this needs an application that passes bytes it did not parse to or and then relies on the verdict or on the transaction the BEEF hands back. 0.8.5 refuses such an entry at all four verdict doors, with or without a BUMP index, and every entry that names it as a parent. Where upgrading is not possible, do not rely on or alone for such an entry: check that the bytes are exactly one transaction before merging them.
