Polygon finality disrupted by node bug, RPC services affected
Polygon faced a temporary consensus finality delay on Wednesday caused by a Bor and Erigon bug that impacted RPC services and validator syncing.
Polygon is experiencing a temporary delay in consensus finality because of a bug affecting the Bor and Erigon nodes, according to an official incident report on its status page.
The issue, which began early on Wednesday, disrupted some Remote Procedure Call (RPC) services and caused apps built on the network to encounter access issues. While the Polygon blockchain remains live and continues producing blocks, a number of RPC providers and validators were forced to rewind to the last finalized block and resynchronize.
The Polygon team confirmed that the bug is preventing node progress for certain configurations. However, restarting the affected nodes has resolved the issue for some participants. “We see that a restart of nodes has fixed the issues for many validators and RPC providers,” Polygon said.
