GHSA-86h5-xcpx-cfqc: ASA-2024-005: Potential slashing evasion during re-delegation

February 27, 2024 (updated November 4, 2024)

An issue was identified in the slashing mechanism that may allow for the evasion of slashing penalties during a slashing event. If a delegation contributed to byzantine behavior of a validator, and the validator has not yet been slashed, it may be possible for that delegation to evade a pending slashing penalty through re-delegation behavior. Additional validation logic was added to restrict this behavior.
