Trail of Bits reports Provenance marker authorization flaw
What was reported
Trail of Bits reported a bug in Provenance Blockchain versions before 1.28.0 that could let any user grant themselves administrative control over marker accounts without owning tokens. The source says 82 mainnet markers tied to live financial assets were affected; mitigation shipped in v1.28.0, with a fix in v1.29.0.
Why it matters
Unauthorized marker administration could affect access controls for tokenized assets and related account operations on the chain.
Evidence and limitations
- The source identifies Provenance as a public proof-of-stake chain built on Cosmos SDK.
- The supplied supported-chain list does not include Provenance, so the chain field cannot be represented accurately.
