GHSA-cwfq-rfcr-8hmp: Zebra's Transparent SIGHASH_SINGLE Handling Diverges from zcashd for Corresponding Outputs

May 7, 2026

For V5+ transparent spends, Zebra and zcashd disagree on the same consensus rule: SIGHASH_SINGLE must fail when the input index has no corresponding output. zcashd treats this as consensus-invalid under ZIP-244, while Zebra’s transparent verification path computes a digest for the missing-output case instead of failing.

The result is a direct block-validity split. A malformed V5 transparent transaction can be accepted by Zebra, retained in Zebra’s mempool, selected into Zebra getblocktemplate, mined into a block, and then rejected by zcashd.
