My node is affected. Do I need to stop my node and wait for the fix? What is the best way to handle this?

[LightningLuke]

totally fine to leave your node running..... lightning just won't be able to sync to chain until you apply the necessary update they release. I see there is a PR fix available and Roasbeef said "we'll be cherry picking this PR onto a new 0.15.2 release (branched off from 0.15.1) which'll backport the fix."

Just not sure if that means we can upgrade to 0.15.1 if on a previous version and that will apply the fix or not...?

probably best to leave node online and wait for a fix, then update ASAP

your node will be out of sync with the chaintip until then but risk seems low at the moment... worst case you will have to reopen channels

closing this now....just upgrade to latest myNode release and you're good to go.
