Summary
ZEBRA: Persistent on-disk corruption of Sapling/Orchard subtree roots after chain fork via pop_tip
Details

ZEBRA is a Zcash node written entirely in Rust. Prior to 4.5.0, a natural or attacker-influenced chain fork can leave stale Sapling and Orchard note-commitment subtree roots in Zebra state. In zebra-state/src/service/nonfinalizedstate/chain.rs, Chain::poptip removed a reverted tip block but did not remove subtree entries whose endheight belonged to that block, unlike the cleanup performed by poproot. When the winning fork later finalized, the abandoned branch's stale subtree data could be written to RocksDB and survive node restarts. The corrupted history can cause zgetsubtreesbyindex consumers such as lightwalletd and light wallets to receive incorrect subtree roots, producing wallet synchronization failures or incorrect wallet state and requiring a full state rebuild for recovery. This issue is fixed in version 4.5.0.
