Hi everyone,

Today we are releasing three security advisories for the Bitcoin Core project. These vulnerabilities affect versions of Bitcoin Core before (and not including) 25.0.

The details are available here: - https://bitcoincore.org/en/2024/10/08/disclose-mutated-blocks-hindering-propagation/ - https://bitcoincore.org/en/2024/10/08/disclose-large-inv-to-send/ - https://bitcoincore.org/en/2024/10/08/disclose-blocktxn-crash/

This is part of the gradual adoption by the project of a new vulnerability disclosure policy. The policy is available at https://bitcoincore.org/en/security-advisories/#policy. We will follow up next month with vulnerabilities affecting Bitcoin Core versions before (and not including) 26.0, if any.
