Parity-Ethereum v2.6.8

Parity Ethereum v2.6.8-beta is a security release. Valid blocks with manipulated transactions (added/replaced) cause the client to stall.

The full list of included changes:

  • Make sure to not mark block header hash as invalid if only the body is wrong (#11356)

Parity-Ethereum v2.6.7

Parity Ethereum v2.6.7-beta is a patch release that adds Istanbul hardfork block numbers for POA and xDai networks, implements ECIP-1056 and implements EIP-2384/2387 - Muir Glacier.

The full list of included changes:

  • Enable EIP-2384 for ice age hard fork (#11281)
  • ethcore/res: activate agharta on classic 9573000 (#11331)
  • Istanbul HF in xDai (2019-12-12) (#11299)
  • Istanbul HF in POA Core (2019-12-19) (#11298)
  • Istanbul HF in POA Sokol (2019-12-05) (#11282)

Parity-Ethereum v2.6.6

Parity Ethereum v2.6.6-beta is an emergency patch release that adds the missing eip1344_transition for mainnet - Users are advised to update as soon as possible to prevent any issues with the imminent Istanbul hardfork

The full list of included changes:

  • [chainspec]: add eip1344_transition for istanbul (#11301)

Parity-Ethereum v2.6.5

Parity Ethereum v2.6.5-beta is a patch release that adds block numbers for activating the Istanbul hardfork on mainnet, as well as a large number of various bugfixes, QoL changes, some code cleanup/refactoring and other miscellaneous changes.

This release removes legacy aliases for the mainnet. If you specify --chain homestead, --chain frontier or --chain byzantium, this will need to be changed to one of: --chain eth, --chain ethereum, --chain foundation or --chain mainnet.

This release includes important changes to how snapshots are produced. The size of the Ethereum account state means that producing a snapshot takes a long while; most nodes today are not able to finish before the relevant state is pruned. Starting with v2.6.5, pruning is paused while a snapshot is underway, hopefully fixing the current dearth of recent snapshots. The downside to this is that memory usage goes up while a snapshot is produced.

The full list of included changes:

  • [CI] check evmbin build (#11096)
  • Correct EIP-712 encoding (#11092)
  • [client]: Fix for incorrectly dropped consensus messages (#11082) (#11086)
