EchelonGraph scoreLOW confidence

This high-severity CVE scores 7.5 under the CNA's CVSS (NVD's own analysis pending). EPSS exploit-prediction score not yet available (the EPSS model rescores nightly; freshly-published CVEs typically appear within 48 hours). GitHub Security Advisory data not yet ingested — confidence will rise once GHSA publishes (typical lag: hours to days for open-source ecosystem CVEs; never for infrastructure-only CVEs).

nimiq-blockchain: Validity store off by one error

Impact

The validity store treats a transaction with stored block_number = X as "in window" only when X > last_bn - transaction_validity_window_blocks (strict inequality). However the protocol's Transaction::is_valid_at accepts a transaction for inclusion in any block in [validity_start_height - blocks_per_batch, validity_start_height + window - 1]. By choosing validity_start_height = X + blocks_per_batch (the largest value still compatible with first inclusion at block X), an attacker can replay the same signed transaction in any block B such that X + window < B < validity_start_height + window, i.e., a contiguous window of blocks_per_batch - 1 blocks (59 on MainNet, ~10 minutes) during which the replay-protection check fails to flag it. The same transaction is then executed twice: the sender is debited twice, the recipient credited twice.
