Komodo Dev Team, With Help From Zcash, Eliminated A Critical Vulnerability

At the beginning of November 2018, the Zcash Security Team contacted Komodo to initiate a vulnerability disclosure agreement. Later in the same month, Zcash reached out once again to inform the Komodo Development Team about a critical vulnerability with the Zcash code base. Komodo is grateful that the Zcash team handled this issue in such a secure and professional manner, allowing Komodo to quickly reach a solution.

Komodo's Dev Team, along with developers from the Verus Coin project, began evaluating the situation immediately. The team of developers and security experts decided to merge the fix that Zcash had implemented with other, Komodo-specific improvements to the codebase.

This allowed the real purpose of the upgrade— eliminating a vulnerability— to remain concealed and thus less likely to be exploited in the time before the new code was activated. The Komodo Dev Team deemed this essential to the safety of the ecosystem. Read more: https://komodoplatform.com/komodo-eliminated-critical-vulnerability/.
