Early bet disclosure via bundled VDF outputs
Published Nov 25, 2025 · Updated Nov 25, 2025
Cryptographic weakness in mescuwa Inside Track / Entropy Derby before 2d38d2f allows remote authenticated users to decrypt bets early. TimeLockEncryptor::encrypt stores vdfOutputHex and vdfProofHex in each ciphertext, while decrypt() accepts fast proof verification instead of recomputing the sequential VDF. Operator-level access is required; exposed horse selections and stakes enable counter-bets before the betting window closes.
