Blockaid flags Reth bug producing incorrect state proofs; patches issued for Base and op-reth

Security firm Blockaid warned that a bug in Reth, an Ethereum execution client, can produce incorrect state proofs. Patched builds were listed for reth, op-reth and Base, while Gauntlet curtailed deposits and allocations in response. Traders should watch client-level vulnerabilities closely, since proof errors at the infrastructure layer can undermine confidence in rollups and staking protocols that depend on these clients.
