Ethereum · Geth · CVE-2020-26240
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions** Geth versions prior to 1.9.24 **Description** An ethash mining DAG generation flaw in Geth could cause miners to erroneously calculate Proof of Work in an upcoming epoch. This issue is relevant only for miners, as non-mining nodes are unaffected. The flaw was observed on the ETC chain on 2020-11-06. **Recommendations** For versions prior to 1.9.24, update to version 1.9.24 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting mining activities until the update is applied.
