Description

I’m not sure that my node was hacked or not. I run core lightning 26.06.7. Someone open channel with me and then drained most of my liquidity of my node. After that this node became offline. I look at the channel state and check funding_txid of this channel to mempool. The txid is not found. Then I find the nodeid in amboss, find the txid and it’s different from txid in my node. I tried to force close the channel and now the state is AWAIT_UNILATERAL. I think my fund was gone and there maybe bug in 26.06.7.

Research direction

The report names no source files or tests. Start by comparing the node's channel state and funding_txid with the mempool and Amboss records, then trace what happens after force-closing into AWAIT_UNILATERAL. Done means determining whether Core Lightning 26.06.7 has a reproducible defect or whether the discrepancy has an external or operational cause.
