Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Bitcoin Core version 0.18.0
Description
The issue concerns the storage of wallet.dat data in memory by bitcoin-qt. When the program crashes, it may create a core file that contains unencrypted wallet data. If this core file is not handled properly, an attacker could potentially reconstruct the wallet.dat file, including private keys, by using a specific command.
Recommendations
For Bitcoin Core version 0.18.0, consider updating to a newer version that addresses this issue, as storing sensitive data unencrypted in memory poses a significant risk. Additionally, handle core files with care to prevent unauthorized access, and avoid using commands that could expose sensitive information, such as private keys.
