Base Network Reports Two Outages Due to Sequencer Bug
Ethereum Layer 2 solution Base suffered two network failures on June 25 and 26. The team attributed the block production halt to a sequencer logic bug that created invalid blocks after failed transaction processing.
The team behind Base, an Ethereum Layer 2 network, published a report detailing two network outages on June 25 and 26. The failures were caused by a bug in the sequencer logic.
According to the report, after an unsuccessful transaction was processed, the system failed to correctly save its internal state, ultimately generating an invalid block. This led to a halt in block production on both occasions.
The specific details of the transaction that triggered the bug were not disclosed in the initial report.
