seems a block at height 74638 has expoited a bug in the net. It uses an integer overflow to make a negative total transaction. The two transaction outputs are:
out Value:92233720368.54(7ffffffffff85ee0) out Value:92233720368.54(7ff
ffffffff85ee0)We need a fix asap

Here’s the preliminary change. Look right? I have more changes to make, this isn’t all of it. Will SVN shortly.
Code:
bool CheckTransaction() const { // Basic checks that don't depend on any context if (vin.empty() || vout.empty()) return error("CTransaction::CheckTransaction() : vin or vout empty"); // Check for negative and overflow values int64 nTotal = 0; foreach(const CTxOut& txout, vout) { if (txout.nValue < 0) return error("CTransaction::CheckTransaction() : txout.nValue negative"); if (txout.nValue > 21000000 * COIN) return error("CTransaction::CheckTransaction() : txout.nValue too high"); nTotal += txout.nValue; if (nTotal > 21000000 * COIN) return error("CTransaction::CheckTransaction() : txout total too high"); } if (IsCoinBase()) { if (vin[0].scriptSig.size() < 2 || vin[0].scriptSig.size() > 100) return error("CTransaction::CheckTransaction() : coinbase script size"); } else { foreach(const CTxIn& txin, vin) if (txin.prevout.IsNull()) return error("CTransaction::CheckTransaction() : prevout is null"); } return true; }
Don’t sticky the topic, nobody looks up there. There’ll be enough posts to bump.
