What's wrong:
process_deposit
has thestatement which aborts processing of the block containing a deposit with invalid proof resulting this block being invalid.
Thus a proposer needs to skip deposits with invalid proofs when composing a block. The same way malicious/incorrect proposer may skip a number of valid deposits.
Suggestion:
Include all deposits to blocks (this is verified by constantly incremented deposit index) but silently ignore deposits with invalid proofs on block transition: i.e. not change the validator registry/balances
