Euler's $4M investment and extensive audits highlight the increasing prioritization of security in the evolving DeFi landscape.
The post Euler allocates $4M for security, conducts 29 code audits to safeguard v2 appeared first on Crypto Briefing.
Some vulnerabilities in Euler v2 were found and resolved, and a subsequent $1.25 million bug bounty contest found no vulnerabilities of medium or greater severity.
The hacker behind the $196 million exploit on lending protocol Euler Finance has returned the majority of the stolen assets, including 51,000 ETH and 7,737 ETH, worth a total of over $101 million at the time of writing. The hacker still controls some of the stolen assets, and the hack is considered the largest DeFi hack of 2023. (Read More)
Decentralized finance (DeFi) protocol Euler Finance lost nearly $197 million in a flash loan attack on March 13, impacting more than 11 other DeFi protocols. The vulnerability remained on-chain for eight months despite a $1 million bug bounty in place. Euler Finance disabled the vulnerable etoken module and vulnerable donation function, and has reached out to security firms and the ETH security community to help with the investigation and recover the stolen funds.

Euler Finance, an Ethereum-based noncustodial lending protocol, suffered a flash loan attack on March 13, resulting in the loss of millions in Dai, USD Coin, staked Ether, and wrapped Bitcoin. The attacker stole nearly $196 million in multiple transactions, making it the largest hack of 2023. On-chain data indicates that the attack is related to a deflation attack that occurred one month ago, and the attacker used a multichain bridge to transfer funds from the Binance Smart Chain to Ethereum.

Euler’s attackers used the loan to temporarily trick the protocol into falsely assuming it held a low amount of eToken, a collateral token issued by Euler based on whichever token is deposited on the protocol. A separate dToken, or debt token, is also issued by Euler such that an on-chain liquidation is automatically triggered when [...]

The post Euler DeFi Protocol Exploited for Nearly $185M appeared first on Crypto Breaking News.
A hacker who drained $197 million from Euler Finance returned 3,000 ETH ($5.4 million) to the deployer address, following a $1 million reward announcement by Euler Finance. The attacker used a multichain bridge to transfer funds from the BNB Chain to Ethereum and moved the stolen funds into Tornado Cash before returning the funds. (Read More)
The $197 million DeFi hack on Euler Finance has been linked to North Korea after blockchain investigator Chainalysis identified that 100 ETH from the stolen funds was transferred to an address associated with North Korea-linked actors. While Chainalysis suspected the involvement of North Korea, it highlighted the possibility of misdirection by other hackers. Euler Labs CEO expressed disappointment in the hack, revealing that ten separate audits over two years assured its security. (Read More)
The hacker who drained $197 million from Euler Finance in the biggest DeFi hack of 2023 so far reportedly returned around $5.4 million in Ether to the company. The funds were sent in three transactions from the hacker's address to Euler Finance's deployer address, but it remains to be seen if the hacker will return the rest of the stolen funds. (Read More)
Euler Finance, an Ethereum-based lending protocol, underwent 10 audits from six different firms in two years before it suffered a $196 million flash loan attack. Despite this, the audits deemed the platform "nothing higher than low risk" with "no outstanding issues." The attack prompted Euler to launch a $1 million bounty for information leading to the hacker's arrest, only for them to move the funds through crypto mixer Tornado Cash. (Read More)
Euler Labs CEO Michael Bentley stated he will “never forgive” the hacker as the exploit caused him to lose time with his newborn son.
The hacker who stole $196 million from Euler Finance has transferred $1.65 million through Tornado Cash, after a $1 million bounty was launched. Victims pleaded for return of funds, but the hacker's move to a crypto mixer suggests they may not be swayed. On-chain data shows the stolen funds consisted of DAI, USDC, staked ETH and WBTC. (Read More)
Before the move, the hacker apparently refunded at least one victim, leading to a slew of on-chain messages from other purported victims.
In Q1 2023, hackers accessed over $320 million through 139 incidents on BNB Chain and losses of $221 million on Ethereum. While significantly lower than Q1 and Q4 2022, the quarter saw hundreds of millions lost, with 60% due to the Euler Finance hack. However, funds were recovered through negotiations with hackers, a trend increasingly common in the industry. (Read More)
Euler Finance has recovered most of the funds stolen in a flash loan attack that drained millions of dollars from various tokens, including Dai and USDC. After negotiating with the hacker, Euler Finance convinced the individual to return the majority of the stolen funds, resulting in the recovery of 12 million DAI and 10,580 ETH.
