Ethereum (Go) - v1.11.4

Security

This is a security release of Geth, improving resilience of the transaction pool against certain kinds of DoS attacks. These attacks have recently been observed in testnets.

Notable changes:

  • TxPool validation rules have been tightened to defend against certain DoS attacks. The new checks are based on research by @dwn1998, @wangyibo0308, @ZhouYuxuan97, @tristartom, @fs3l. Thank you for your report and cooperation! (#26648)
  • EIP-712 signing in Clef now recognizes all primitive types of Solidity. (#26770)
  • EF bootstrap nodes on MS Azure have been removed because they will be decommissioned soon. (#26828)
  • The core.Message type has been changed from interface to struct and types.Message (in core/types) has been removed. This is a breaking API change in core/types. We believe the removal should not cause additional disruption for downstream projects because types.Messages had no meaningful use outside of package core. (#25977)
  • core.BlockGen has a new Timestamp method. (#26844)

For a full rundown of the changes please consult the Geth 1.11.4 release milestone.
