This is a non-urgent, patch release, which introduces a fix for DKG key creation issues.

Due to an upstream dependency issue, DKG running on AVX-enabled CPUs might fail due to misgenerated private keys.

Compatibility Matrix

This release of Charon is backwards compatible with Charon v1.0.0 - v1.1.1. DKGs need to be completed with clients on the same minor release.

Due to the above mentioned issue, it is recommended to run DKGs with Charon v1.1.2 onwards.

The below matrix details a combination of beacon node + validator clients and their corresponding versions the DV Labs team have tested with this Charon release. More validator and consensus client will be added to this list as they are supported in our automated testing framework.
