Ethereum client Geth calls on validators to upgrade immediately to prevent potential financial losses

Odaily News The developers of the Ethereum client Geth have called on validators using version v1.15.1 to upgrade to v1.15.2 immediately to prevent potential financial losses. The upgrade is intended to maintain network stability and prevent disruptions to validators' operations. There is a regression in version v1.15.1 that may cause block creation on the Ethereum mainnet to fail. Validators running Geth v1.15.1 may miss block opportunities as a result, resulting in loss of block rewards and transaction fees. This upgrade follows a recent fix patch. Previously, there was a vulnerability in an older version of Geth that could cause nodes to suffer a denial of service (DoS) attack. (The Block)
