Ethereum client security fixes leave binary users with a separate Java check

Teku and Besu, software used to run Ethereum nodes, have shipped Docker security fixes after a certificate-authority compromise at eMudhra. Operators using affected images can update those containers. Binary installations need a separate check of their Java runtime. Teku 26.10.3 , released Oct. 27, and Besu 26.10.2 , released Oct. 26, stop their Docker images trusting four certificate roots: emSign ECC Root CA – G3, emSign Root CA – G1, emSign Root CA – G2 and AAA Certificate Services. For Teku, exposure depends on configuration. The team's security notice says default mainnet nodes without HTTPS URLs are unaffected.
