    Hey all! Zellic blog post again! I don’t know if you remember tho, I’ve found ton of bugs in Zcash and received bounty! Yes, of course, the bounty amount is most interesting. But there’s more to it than that. If you’d like to learn about Zebra nodes and vulnerabilities, dive

    We found bugs in @Zcash. Not in circuits or cryptography, but in the implementation of Zebra, the Rust full node. Caching, error handling and peer attribution bugs led to multiple ways to stall or crash a node, giving $93,750 in bounties. Here’s how we poisoned Zcash’s state.

    I should add that, in fact, AI played no role in the “find” of this bug. Also it’s safe to say that I learned most of knowledge of web3 while working at @zellic_io. Huge thanks my Sensei(s)!

    Congratulations to our very own @ipwning for another huge finding! Less than two weeks since we shared the details of his $93,750 zcash bounty... And he's already topped it 🔥 Looking forward to sharing another deep dive once disclosure completes.

    I’ve played with SuperDiceCode, Starbugs and CyKor before. This time, my team is 0x4b52(KR 🇰🇷). I’m grateful to have the opportunity to look back on what we’ve accomplished so far. I’m also happy to have been part of such an amazing teams. Thank you and good bye my friend CTF 🚩

    My last CTF has come to an end. I’m very proud that our team, 0x4b52, finished in second place at DEF CON CTF. On the final day, I was a little upset—not only as a CTF player, but also as a professor. As a professor, I always want to tell my students that we should try to live

    I recently participated in the @Zcash team’s bug bounty program after hearing about it and finding it interesting. I reported several vulnerabilities in Zebra. While most were classified as duplicates, two of them were confirmed. github.com/ZcashFoundatio… github.com/ZcashFoundatio…
