Validator crash via unchecked INMSGPARAM tuple
Published Feb 13, 2026 · Updated Feb 13, 2026
Null pointer dereference in TON Blockchain's TVM before 2025.06 allows remote attackers to crash validator nodes via crafted transactions. In exec_get_in_msg_param, as_tuple() can return null for a non-Tuple c7 message-parameter element, which is then passed to tuple_index without validation. Exploitation requires Global Version 11 semantics and interrupts the affected validator process; the flaw was patched before that version went live.
