Solana incident report: An error triggered an "infinite loop" within the layer 1 blockchain validator
According to the post-mortem analysis report prepared by Anza, a software development company for Solana, an error triggered an "infinite loop" within the layer 1 blockchain validators, causing Solana to fail to reach consensus for approximately five hours on Tuesday. The report indicates that this error resulted in a "classic infinite loop" among validators whose task is to confirm new blocks on the Solana blockchain. An infinite loop refers to a set of encoded instructions in a computer node that continues executing without termination. Due to the Solana validators being stuck in this infinite loop, they were stalled on specific blocks, preventing them from processing new blocks and adding them to the blockchain.
