v5.1.2 hotfix release

Prysm v5.1.1 contains an updated implementation of the beacon api streaming events endpoint. This new implementation contains a bug that can cause a panic in certain conditions. The issue is difficult to reproduce reliably and we are still trying to determine the root cause, but in the meantime we are issuing a patch that recovers from the panic to prevent the node from crashing.

This only impacts the v5.1.1 release beacon api event stream endpoints. This endpoint is used by the prysm REST mode validator (a feature which requires the validator to be configured to use the beacon api intead of prysm's stock grpc endpoints) or accessory software that connects to the events api, like https://github.com/ethpandaops/ethereum-metrics-exporter

Fixed

  • Recover from panics when writing the event stream #14545
