Transaction pool can be manipulated to do a lot of cleanups
The TxPool supports the feature that allows chain transactions and the use of uncommitted UTXOs.
We allow chaining up to max_depth
dependent transactions. But we don't limit the width of the chain. Taking into account that it is possible to create a transaction with 255 outputs, and for each of these outputs, create another dependent transaction with 255 outputs and continue this process until max_depth
is reached.
After setup the TxPool to have 255^max_depth
dependent transactions, the manipulator can insert conflicting transactions with higher tips to replace the first dependent transaction and cause cleanup of 255^max_depth - 1
transactions.
We need to limit dependent transactions on width as well.
