Description of the event: Attackers exploited a vulnerability in SubQuery Network’s Settings contract on the Base network (the setContractAddress() function missing the onlyOwner access control modifier). By repeatedly calling this function, the attacker set their address as StakingManager and RewardsDistributor, enabling drainage of pooled SQT from the Staking contract, impacting 272 individual staker/delegator wallets, RewardsBooster, and a small protocol Treasury. Approximately 382,433,441 SQT were drained (worth about $134,000 USD at the time). The team quickly responded by deploying a fix, pausing withdrawals, and committing to full compensation for all affected users. No user private keys were compromised. The root cause was a missing access control from a prior code refactor.

Description of the event: An employee device at Zerion was compromised through an AI-driven social engineering attack, allegedly linked to a DPRK-associated advanced persistent threat (APT) group. The attacker successfully obtained the employee’s logged-in sessions, account credentials, and private keys to company hot wallets used for internal testing and operations, and subsequently transferred approximately $100,000 from multiple internal hot wallets. No user funds were affected in this incident, and Zerion’s products, mobile applications, and backend infrastructure were not compromised. The attack was limited to an employee device and internal company hot wallet systems. Following the incident, the team proactively took down the web application and carried out full credential rotation, device security reviews, and infrastructure hardening measures to prevent further risk exposure.
Description of the event: Aethir's cross-chain bridge contracts (primarily AethirOFTAdapter and Ethereum-related bridging contracts) were targeted in an exploit. The attacker attempted to drain funds by exploiting access control or ownership transfer vulnerabilities (e.g., transferOwnership issues), involving chains like BNB Chain. The Aethir team quickly detected the anomaly, promptly disconnected the compromised contracts, and collaborated with major exchanges (Binance, Upbit, Bithumb, etc.) to blacklist attacker wallets, effectively containing further damage. The main ATH token supply on Ethereum remained intact, and other bridges like ETH-ARB on Squid were unaffected. Initial estimates put potential losses around $400,000, but user impact was limited to under $90,000. The project promised a full compensation plan.
Description of the event: A user mistakenly approved the SquidMulticall contract (instead of the intended Squid Router contract) with unlimited token allowances. An attacker then called the permissionless run() function on SquidMulticall with crafted calldata to execute transferFrom() from the victim’s approved tokens across multiple chains (ETH, BSC, Arbitrum, Avalanche, etc.). This drained approximately $517K.
Description of the event: Computility-associated TGAI project on BSC suffered a reserve manipulation attack on PancakeSwap V2 liquidity pool. The hacker used a ~$2.4M USDT flash loan, deployed multiple helper contracts to buy TGAI, manipulated reserves via sync() function with ~17.5K USDT injection, then swapped to extract profits, resulting in approximately $11.94K loss.
Description of the event: Decentralized perpetual futures trading platform Denaria announced on X that it suffered a smart contract attack yesterday, resulting in a loss of approximately $165,000. The team is currently working with Linea and auditing partners to investigate the incident and will release a full post-mortem report as soon as possible.
Description of the event: According to ExVul monitoring, a TMM/USDT reserve manipulation attack occurred on the BSC (BNB Chain), resulting in a loss of approximately 1.665 million USDT. The attacker utilized flash loans from Lista DAO Moolah, Venus, Aave V3, PancakeSwap Vault, and Uniswap PoolManager to manipulate the TMM/USDT trading pair. By burning TMM to a dead address, the attacker reduced the pair's reserve to just 1 TMM, subsequently swapping 850 million TMM for approximately 272 million USDT. After repaying all flash loans, the attacker transferred a net profit of roughly 1.665 million USDT to associated addresses.
Description of the event: GoPlus has issued a security alert regarding a suspected cyberattack on Adobe, involving the potential leak of approximately 13 million users' data. Affected users may face heightened risks, including phishing emails or calls impersonating Adobe customer support, precision social engineering scams leveraging leaked ticket information, and credential stuffing attacks.
Description of the event: DeFi lending protocol HypurrFi tweeted that the hypurr.fi domain has been hijacked. The team has migrated its infrastructure to hypurrfi .com. The protocol itself, user funds, and team infrastructure remain unaffected.
Description of the event: The attacker exploited a Misconfigured Oracle Exploit in combination with protocol logic issues to launch an attack against the Silo V2 contracts on Arbitrum. The incident involved price manipulation or configuration flaws in the oracle mechanism, which ultimately enabled unauthorized fund extraction. This was a relatively small-scale incident affecting Silo Finance V2, with limited impact on core user funds. Similar to other cases, the affected contracts were likely peripheral or experimental components rather than the core protocol. Following the attack, the stolen funds were obfuscated through mixers and/or cross-chain bridges. Although Silo Finance has undergone audits, newly introduced features or misconfigurations can still introduce potential risks.
Description of the event: A user EOA on BNB Chain (with EIP-7702 delegation) that had set delegated code via an EIP-7702 Type-4 transaction was drained for ~$17.2K. The delegated code included a pancakeV3SwapCallback() function without proper access control. The attacker directly called this callback with crafted calldata, forcing the victim account to transfer its tokens to an attacker-controlled address. The victim had enabled the delegation to support swap-related logic.
Description of the event: According to ZachXBT, the Trust Wallet Discord vanity URL (discord[.]gg/trustwallet) has been hijacked and currently directs users to a phishing server. Users are advised to avoid using links from official channels—including the official website, Telegram, and blogs—to join the Discord at this time.
Description of the event: The SAS Token on BNB Chain was exploited via a flawed custom transfer logic (Deferred Burn Exploit). The token’s custom transfer logic had a flaw: sending SAS to the LP pool only incremented a global sellBurn counter, while any subsequent ordinary transfer could burn SAS directly from the pool and call sync() to rewrite reserves, bypassing the AMM’s swap logic. The attacker accumulated sellBurn credit through sells, triggered an unrelated ordinary transfer to burn SAS from the pool down to ~1 wei, and then reverse-swapped to extract profit.
Description of the event: According to The Block, the Solana-based decentralized exchange Drift Protocol has been hit by a major exploit, with losses totaling at least $200 million. Some estimates suggest the figure is closer to $270 million, making it the second-largest DeFi security breach in the Solana ecosystem, trailing only the Wormhole bridge hack. The attack targeted multiple Drift vaults, including JLP Delta Neutral, SOL Super Staking, and BTC Super Staking. On-chain data reveals that the attacker swapped the stolen assets for USDC via Jupiter, then bridged them to Ethereum to purchase ETH. As of 17:45 UTC, the attacker held approximately 19,913 ETH (worth roughly $42 million). Drift stated they are currently investigating the "abnormal activity" and have advised users to suspend all deposits. Subsequently, according to PeckShield's statistics, Drift Protocol suffered losses exceeding $285 million in the attack.
Description of the event: A spokesperson for Galaxy Digital disclosed that the company recently contained a cybersecurity incident. Unauthorized access was strictly limited to an isolated development and testing environment; production systems, trading platforms, and customer accounts remained unaffected. The company quickly detected and contained the intrusion. The affected area was a standalone R&D environment unrelated to core infrastructure, resulting in a loss of less than $10,000 in corporate testing funds. Following a review, it was confirmed that no customer funds or account information were accessed or at risk, and all platforms and services remain fully operational. Galaxy stated they will continue to review the incident and provide updates as appropriate.
Description of the event: Huma Finance issued a warning on X stating that the official X account of its partner Arf, @arf_one, has been compromised. Please refrain from interacting with any posts from that account until it has been fully secured.
Description of the event: Socket has detected an active supply chain attack targeting version 1.14.1 of the core npm package, axios. The attacker injected malicious code into axios by introducing a malicious dependency that first appeared today. Developers using axios are advised to pin their versions immediately and review their project lockfiles.
Description of the event: LML/USDT staking protocol on BNB Chain suffered a price manipulation attack. The hacker used flash loans to massively inflate the LML/USDT pool spot price, exploited a logic flaw in the staking contract’s reward calculation (which relied on a stale stored price with a 3600-second cooldown instead of live AMM price), batch-claimed oversized LML rewards from pre-staked addresses via EIP-7702, and sold them in the distorted pool for approximately $950,000 profit, causing the LML token price to crash 99.6%.
Description of the event: Steakhouse Financial disclosed yesterday that it was targeted by a phone-based social engineering attack against its provider, OVH Cloud. The attacker modified the DNS A records of the main website and app subdomains to point to a malicious IP address and attempted to initiate a 5-day domain transfer. These changes have now been reverted, and the DNS records have been cleared. The team is currently working with OVH Cloud to fully resolve the issue. All vaults and smart contracts were not affected, and depositor funds remain safe. No other service accounts were compromised.Users are advised not to interact with the official website or emails until the issue is fully resolved. A detailed post-incident report will be released as soon as possible. Earlier today, Steakhouse Financial further stated that during the period when the website’s DNS records were cleared, vaults remained accessible directly via Morpho, with all functions — including deposits and withdrawals — operating normally. A confirmation will be provided once the frontend is fully restored.
Description of the event: Solana-based Prop AMM project GoonFi v2's WSOL/USDC pool was drained of ~$254k due to a program config/logic bug that caused mispricing. Searchers exploited the vulnerability in a single atomic transaction, and the project team has subsequently halted the program.
