EigenLayer disclosed on X that in an isolated incident this morning, an email thread involving one investor’s transfer of tokens into custody was compromised by a malicious attacker.

The attacker sold these stolen EIGEN tokens via a decentralized swap platform and transferred stablecoins to centralized exchanges. EigenLayer stated that they are in contact with these platforms and law enforcement. A portion of the funds have already been frozen. The compromise has not impacted the broader ecosystem. There is no known vulnerability in the protocol or token contracts and this compromise was not related to any on-chain functionality.

Onyx protocol suffered a security breach, resulting in a loss of over $3.8 million. The attacker exploited a known precision issue in the Compound V2 code. Additionally, the NFTLiquidation contract failed to properly validate untrusted user input, allowing the attacker to inflate the self-liquidation reward amount, which further worsened the losses.

A crypto yield platform called Shezmu suffered a loss of around $4.9 million in $ShezUSD after an attacker exploited a flaw that allowed anyone to mint collateral, which they could then use to borrow ShezUSD. These tokens were relatively illiquid, however, so the total amount the attacker could have obtained was likely considerably less. Shortly after the attack, Shezmu offered a 10% "bounty" for the return of the funds. The attacker responded that they would only consider a 20% bounty. Shezmu agreed to the terms, and announced to their followers that they had achieved a recovery from the "white hat" hacker.
