🚀 Zcash Addresses Critical Node Vulnerability to Prevent Potential Exploitation

Zcash developers have successfully patched a critical vulnerability in the node software that could have allowed malicious miners to drain over 25,000 ZEC from the deprecated Sprout pool. According to NS3.AI, a disclosure report released on Tuesday confirmed that the bug was not exploited, and fixes were implemented by Zcash developers and major mining pools within three days. ZODL noted that Zcash's turnstile mechanism would have prevented broader supply inflation even if the pool had been compromised.
