filecoin-project/lotus v1.36.3

on GitHub

Lotus Node v1.36.3 is a recommended patch release focused on Ethereum RPC correctness (event-index completeness for eth_getLogs/eth_getTransactionReceipt, RLP validation), a WebTransport memory-exhaustion fix (CVE-2026-57497), gateway event-query bounding, sector-reporting UX, and operator tooling.

☢️ Upgrade Warnings ☢️

• lotus state active-sectors has been removed and merged into lotus state sectors, which now defaults to active sectors only (previously it returned every committed sector). Use lotus state sectors --all for the previous full-sector-set behavior. (filecoin-project/lotus#13743)

⭐ New Features

• feat(cli): lotus state sectors now prints Activation, Expiration, InitialPledge, and DailyFee for each sector by default, and gained a --human flag to render epochs as local calendar time and attoFIL amounts as FIL instead of raw numbers. (filecoin-project/lotus#13743)
• feat(shed): add lotus-shed eth storage-dump / eth storage-decode to enumerate and decode an EVM contract's on-chain storage KAMT at a given tipset. Dumps slot-sorted NDJSON plus KAMT shape stats (optional CARv1 and eth_getStorageAt verification); decodes against a forge storage layout with ERC-1967/7201 support (filecoin-project/lotus#13730)
• feat(blockstore): LOTUS_BLOCKSTORE_VERIFY_READS=1 enables a verify-after-read mode for the blockstore, which incurs a hash cost on every block load but can be used to help heal a damaged blockstore by re-importing blocks and overwriting damaged ones. (filecoin-project/lotus#13752)
• feat(shed): lotus-shed import-car can now read and import modern FRC-0108 v2 snapshot CARs into the Lotus blockstore, similar to lotus daemon --import-snapshot. (filecoin-project/lotus#13752)

🐛 Bug Fixes

• fix(docker): update Debian from bullseye to trixie for lotus-builder and lotus-base stages; also fetch prebuilt filecoin-ffi libraries instead of compiling them. (filecoin-project/lotus#13785)
• fix(eth): prevent eth_getLogs from returning successful empty or partial results when historical event-index coverage is incomplete. Block-hash queries now require a completed block event index, and range queries verify every canonical non-null tipset before returning logs. (filecoin-project/lotus#13749)
• fix(eth): prevent eth_getTransactionReceipt from returning a successful receipt with an empty logs array while that transaction's events are still being indexed. The call now fails until event indexing is complete, while transactions that completed with no events still return an empty array. (filecoin-project/lotus#13758)
• fix(network): prevent remote memory exhaustion through Lotus's default WebTransport listener by updating go-libp2p and webtransport-go (CVE-2026-57497). (filecoin-project/lotus#13734)
• fix(events): GetActorEventsRaw and SubscribeActorEventsRaw now reject a filter whose toHeight is negative. (filecoin-project/lotus#13751)
• fix(eth): eth_sendRawTransaction now rejects a transaction whose RLP integer fields are not minimally encoded, matching go-ethereum. (filecoin-project/lotus#13744)

👌 Improvements

• build: bump Go version to 1.25.14 from1.25.7; build Lotus with Go 1.25.14 or newer. (filecoin-project/lotus#13786)
• feat(gateway): limit event queries and historical filter preloads to 360 epochs (three hours) by default across EthGetLogs, EthNewFilter, GetActorEventsRaw, and SubscribeActorEventsRaw. Gateway operators can change the limit with --event-filter-max-height-range, or set it to zero to disable the gateway limit. (filecoin-project/lotus#13776)
