Description

Bug Description

A malformed ordinary transaction byte string can survive batch validation because SingleBatch::check_batch() only rejects empty txs, deposit txs, and pre-Isthmus 7702 txs; it never fully decodes ordinary envelopes. AttributesQueue then appends the malformed bytes unchanged into payload attributes. When the engine tries to start a safe build, the attr-bearing engine_forkchoiceUpdated call can legitimately return PayloadStatus::Invalid for an invalid transaction or invalid state transition, which the bundled derivation spec explicitly treats as a normal payload-processing failure that must cause the attrs to be dropped. That means this path is not limited to a malicious operator: it can also happen if the authenticated batch source is simply buggy, version-skewed, or emits malformed data during a normal upgrade or serialization mistake. Instead, the current implementation classifies that Invalid result as Temporary, so EngineTask::execute() retries the same task in-place forever with only yield_now(). Because EngineProcessor drains the task queue before it accepts the next request, the poisoned safe-build task starves later engine requests behind it.

Code path:

crates/consensus/protocol/src/batch/single.rs:168#SingleBatch::check_batch -> malformed tx bytes are accepted without envelope decode -> crates/consensus/derive/src/stages/attributes_queue.rs:106#AttributesQueue::create_next_attributes -> malformed bytes are forwarded unchanged into payload attributes -> crates/consensus/engine/src/task_queue/tasks/build/task.rs:87#BuildTask::start_build -> attr-bearing engine_forkchoiceUpdated returns PayloadStatusEnum::Invalid -> crates/consensus/engine/src/task_queue/tasks/build/error.rs:58#BuildTaskError::severity -> EngineBuildError::InvalidPayload(_) is classified as Temporary -> crates/consensus/engine/src/task_queue/tasks/task.rs:248#EngineTask::execute -> Temporary => yield_now() + continue on the same task -> crates/consensus/service/src/actors/engine/engine_request_processor.rs:512#EngineProcessor::start -> drains the queue before receiving the next request, so later engine work is starved

This also drifts from the bundled Base/OP derivation spec, which still requires invalid batch-derived payload attributes to be dropped rather than retried in place:

• docs/specs/pages/protocol/consensus/derivation.md:821

If a payload attributes created from a batch cannot be inserted into the chain because of a validation error (i.e. there
was an invalid transaction or state transition in the block) the batch should be dropped & the safe head should not be
advanced.

• docs/specs/pages/protocol/consensus/derivation.md:843

- On RPC-type errors the payload attributes processing should be re-attempted in a future step.
- On payload processing errors the attributes must be dropped, and the forkchoice state must be left unchanged.

Impact

A malicious, compromised, or simply buggy authenticated batch source can publish one malformed batch that survives derivation validation and pins the consensus node on a single poisoned safe-build task. This does not require an actively malicious operator; the same behavior can arise from a serializer bug, version skew, or upgrade-edge batch that the EL rejects as invalid. The node keeps re-sending the same attr-bearing forkchoice update without drop or backoff, amplifying CPU work and preventing later engine requests from progressing.

Recommendation

Fully decode ordinary batch transaction envelopes during batch validation and treat attr-bearing InvalidPayload responses as payload-processing failures rather than temporary retry conditions. Drop the bad attrs, keep forkchoice unchanged, and continue with the next batch or deposits-only fallback; add a regression test that invalid batch attrs are not retried in place.
