⚛️ Cosmos SDK Security Patch by Minter Team

While developing Minter Hub, we located a critical bug in Cosmos SDK: a malicious actor could halt the operation of any public node with a 100-percent guarantee. We reported the issue in detail and informed Cosmos developers of our finding. Their team has released an update to eliminate this vulnerability:

https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/releases/tag/v0.41.1

"This release includes two security patches, and does not introduce any breaking changes. It is highly recommended that all applications using v0.41.0 upgrade to v0.41.1 as soon as possible."

Our core team has been actively contributing to the Tendermint development since the very beginning: 6 issues, 1 global architecture proposal, 7 pull requests. And now we are excited to have the opportunity to help improve Cosmos SDK, too.

P.S.: Since Minter blockchain does not utilize Cosmos SDK, the identified problem does not affect it.
