Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.27%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

Zebra before 6.1.0 contains an incorrect calculation vulnerability in its ZIP-317 block template selector that omits header and transaction-count size from the block budget. Attackers can place valid selectable transactions in a victim miner's mempool to shape templates into oversized blocks, causing rejection and wasted proof-of-work.
