Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
Klever-Go versions before 1.7.20 accept validator registration with a malformed BLS public key. Anyone who can stake the minimum validator amount can register such a key, and when that validator is selected into a consensus group, block production fails for those rounds. Upgrade to version 1.7.20.
