    Issue
    Impact Mithril certification of Cardano database The Mithril network provides certification for snapshots of the Cardano database, enabling users to quickly bootstrap a Cardano node without relying on the slower peer-to-peer synchronization process. To generate a multi-signature, a minimum threshold of Cardano stake registered in the protocol must agree on signing the same message. In this context, a digest is computed from the internal files of the Cardano node's database. However, this mechanism has certain limitations. Specifically, some files are not identically generated across all Cardano nodes, and there is no API to provide consistent snapshots at a specific beacon on the Cardano chain: - All immutable files, except the last one (which is still being created), are used to compute the message - The last immutable file is excluded from the signature - The ledger state files are also excluded from the signature. Cardano node startup sequence A Cardano node can only perform a…

    Recommended action: Upgrade to 0.12.2 or later, then redeploy and verify.A vendor fix does not resolve your finding until you verify it in your own systems.
