The flaw occurs because the guard checker fails to correctly track recursive calls made through a fixpoint's own arguments. This allows for the construction of proofs that appear valid but conclude false propositions, such as 0 = 1, without the use of axioms, tactics, plugins, or unsafe flags. The system reports these malformed proofs as closed under the global context.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 id=\"impact\"\u003eImpact\u003c/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe vulnerability compromises the integrity of formally verified proofs generated by the Rocq Prover.
