LEDGER EXPLOIT PATCHED: AVOID USING WEB3 FOR TODAY

Ledger, a key player in the cryptocurrency hardware wallet industry, has successfully patched a critical security flaw in its connector library. This vulnerability had impacted several decentralized applications (DApps), including notable names like SushiSwap and Revoke.cash.

Rapid Detection and Action

The security issue was first detected when multiple DApps using Ledger’s connector experienced unauthorized access. Upon discovery, Ledger acted promptly, replacing the compromised file version with its authentic counterpart by 1:35 pm UTC on the same day. This prompt response averted potential widespread asset drain from users’ accounts.

Advisory for Users

In the wake of this incident, Ledger has advised its users to exercise caution, particularly when executing transactions. The company emphasized the importance of verifying transaction details on the Ledger device screen, as discrepancies between this and the computer or phone screen could indicate fraudulent activity. Users were urged to halt any transaction immediately if any such inconsistency was observed.

Industry Response and Precautions

The incident garnered immediate attention from industry experts and DApp operators. SushiSwap’s Chief Technical Officer, Matthew Lilley, was among the first to raise the alarm, highlighting the widespread nature of the breach. Following this, Ledger’s response was critical in mitigating further damage.

Ensuring Future Safety

Ledger’s swift action to address the vulnerability showcases the company’s commitment to security. The incident serves as a reminder of the constant vigilance required in the digital asset space to protect against evolving cybersecurity threats.

While the exploit was patched, it might take some due to how CDNs work to be fully functional. We suggest NOT TO USE ANY DAPP for at least 24 hours.
