“# Lightning network vulnerability discovered, upgrade immedia<\/a>tely <\/strong>”
\n<\/p>\n

Lightning network node operators running LND versions prior to the Oct. 1 version 0.11 upgrade have been urged<\/a> to upgrade immediately after a vulnerability was discovered affecting LND versions 0.10 and below.<\/p>\n

The vulnerability was made public in an Oct. 9 announcement from Lightning engineer Conner Fromknecht, Head of Cryptographic Engineering at Lightning Labs. Fromknecht said:<\/p>\n

\u201cWhile we have no reason to believe these vulnerabilities have been exploited in the wild, we strongly urge the community to upgrade to lnd 0.11.0 or above ASAP,\u201d <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Few details have been revealed so far, with Fromknecht assuring that the vulnerabilities will be disclosed in full on Oct. 20. <\/p>\n

This is not the first time a vulnerability has been discovered in the Lightning network. Last year, Lightning Labs CTO, Olaoluwa Osuntokun, confirmed instances of Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) \u201cbeing exploited in the wild.\u201d<\/p>\n

Earlier this year, researchers warned about the privacy vulnerabilities in the Lightning network<\/a> that could expose financial information of Bitcoin transactions that were believed to be anonymous.<\/p>\n

Currently, Lightning Labs, Blockstream, and ACINQ are the three major teams working on the development of the Lightning network.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
