Vulnerability in github.com/klever-io/klever-go (CVE-2026-54755)
Summary
Vulnerability in github.com/klever-io/klever-go (CVE-2026-54755). Data can be tampered with by attackers. Exploitable via uint32. Mitigation: upgrade to 1.7.19 or later.
Original description
The description as published by the source.
Summary
The per-entry percentages of a KDA asset's split royalties are validated by summing
them into a uint32 accumulator and checking the sum against HundredPercent (10000),
with no upper bound on each individual entry. Two split entries whose percentages sum to
just over 2^32 wrap around below 10000 and pass validation, while each stored value
remains astronomically large (e.g. 0x80000000 = 2,147,483,648 ≈ 21,474,836%).
At royalty payout, each split recipient is credited pool × hugePct / 10000 — far more than
the royalty pool — and the resulting negative remainder is silently discarded
(if royaltiesToPay <= 0 { return Ok }). Because fixed royalties (and marketplace/ITO
royalties) are denominated in KLV, an attacker mints KLV (the native token) out of thin
air, on demand, by transferring or selling their own throwaway asset.
This is independent of, and not mitigated by, the existing FixMarketBuyOverflow guard.
Affected component
- Repository:
klever-io/klever-go(node). - Validation:
core/process/kda/assetHelper.go,core/kapp/kda/create.go,
core/kapp/kda/trigger.go,core/kapp/builtInFunctions/utils.go. - Payout (mint sites):
core/kapp/accounts/accounts.go(transfer),core/kapp/market/market.go
(marketplace buy),core/kapp/ito/ito.go(ITO buy). - Not gated by any fork flag — exploitable on current mainnet.
Root cause
1. Per-entry split percentages are decoded as raw uint32 with n…

CVE-2026-54755 (github.com/klever-io/klever-go) — CWE-190 / CVSS v3 9.6
Attack vector: remote (network-reachable) / no user interaction
Attack surface: uint32 / FixMarketBuyOverflow / decodeSplitInfo / TransferPercentage
Patched: 1.7.19 — apply immediately
Plan: 1) Audit SBOM/dependencies, 2) Stage→prod upgrade, 3) Add WAF/proxy monitoring on affected endpoints, 4) Hunt IOCs in logs.
Refs: see the GHSA / vendor advisory / patched release linked on this page.
A vulnerability (CWE-190) exists in github.com/klever-io/klever-go. Attackers reach the vulnerable code path via uint32.
Check the vendor advisory for the affected versions of github.com/klever-io/klever-go. Attack surface: uint32 / FixMarketBuyOverflow / decodeSplitInfo / TransferPercentage.
Severity: Critical (CVSS 9.6/10). Data can be tampered with by attackers.
Update to 1.7.19.
Until the patch is applied: disable the affected feature, apply WAF rules, or restrict access via network ACLs.
Search webserver/proxy logs for unusual request patterns matching this CVE's known IOCs. Run grep -r 'github.com/klever-io/klever-go' . against your dependency files (package-lock.json, requirements.txt, go.sum) to find affected services.
