Polygon Patches Two Bor Bugs That Let Valid Transactions Slow Nodes
- —One bug let speculative execution retain excessive calculated data in a shared cache
- —The other repeatedly recalculated a contract's code hash instead of reusing the result
- —In testing, serial execution finished in tens of milliseconds while parallel work ran about 11 seconds
- —Private builds shipped for Amoy on Oct 5 and mainnet on Oct 8; disclosure came Oct 15
Why it matters: The bugs were not consensus-affecting, but they could slow nodes; operators on Bor v2.10.2 or earlier should upgrade promptly.
