KiiChain Smart Contract Vulnerability: $9.70M Reported Loss

·Historical incident record

Incident Overview

An attacker exploited vulnerabilities in the shared Cosmos EVM module (an arithmetic underflow in the staking precompile’s balance write-back after delegation, combined with vesting account handling and other undisclosed bugs). By creating a vesting account and deploying a contract to it, the attacker repeated the technique 18 times, draining approximately 148.3 million KII from various wallets. KiiChain halted the network at block 9355723 to stop further theft.
