System information
Bor client version: v1.3.2

Heimdall client version: v1.0.6

OS & Version: OSX

Environment: Polygon Mainnet

Type of node: Sentry

Additional Information:

Overview of the problem
When bor reaches a certain height from 0 synchronization, an "out of gas" error will be reported in the verifyCascadingFields function, and then the peer node will be dropped. This is caused by triggering a loop of all spans when accessing the getBorValidators method of the validatorSet contract. You can reproduce it by accessing the getBorValidators method of the system contract and passing in a value that exceeds the current (span+2).endblock.

Additional Information

In order to debug the issue faster, we would stongly encourage if you can provide some of the details mentioned below (whichever seems relevant to your issue)

Your start.sh file or bor.service, if you're facing some peering issue or unable to use some service (like http endpoint) as expected. Moreover, if possible mention the chain configuration printed while starting the node which looks something like Initialised chain configuration config="{ChainID: 137, ..., Engine: bor}"
The result of eth.syncing, admin.peers.length, admin.nodeInfo, value of the maxpeers flag in start.sh, and bootnodes/static nodes (if any) is you're facing some syncing issue.
Your heimdall-config.toml parameters for checking the ETH and BOR RPC url's, incase of issue with bor heimdall communication.
The CURL request (for that specific error) if you're facing any issues or identify a bug while making RPC request.
