CVE-2026-54755: CWE-190: Integer Overflow or Wraparound in klever-io klever-go
Description
CVE-2026-54755 is a critical integer overflow vulnerability in klever-go, the Go implementation of the Klever blockchain protocol. Prior to version 1.7.19, crafted split-royalty values can cause uint32 accumulator wraparound, bypassing validation checks. This allows creation of unbacked KLV or other assets during asset transfers, marketplace purchases, or ITO purchases. The issue is fixed in version 1.7.19.

Technical Analysis
The vulnerability arises from integer overflow or wraparound in the handling of split-royalty fields decoded in core/kapp/builtInFunctions/utils.go. Values greater than core.HundredPercent can be summed in uint32 accumulators in core/kapp/kda/create.go and core/kapp/kda/trigger.go, where crafted inputs such as two 0x80000000 entries cause the sum to wrap to zero, passing the CheckValid100Params validation incorrectly. Subsequently, royalty payout paths in core/kapp/accounts/accounts.go, core/kapp/market/market.go, and core/kapp/ito/ito.go credit each oversized split amount and discard a negative remainder silently. This flaw enables creation of unbacked KLV or other assets, violating asset integrity. The vulnerability is resolved in klever-go version 1.7.19.
Potential Impact
Exploitation allows attackers with limited privileges to craft split-royalty values that bypass validation and cause creation of unbacked assets, potentially leading to unauthorized asset inflation and financial loss within the Klever blockchain ecosystem. The CVSS score of 9.6 reflects critical impact with high integrity and availability consequences but no confidentiality impact.
Mitigation Recommendations
A fix is available in klever-go version 1.7.19. Users and administrators should upgrade to version 1.7.19 or later to remediate this vulnerability. Patch status is not explicitly confirmed in the vendor advisory, but the description states the issue is fixed in 1.7.19. No additional mitigations are indicated.
