PeckShield said the Reverse Finance landing protocol was hacked, as a result of which the attacker withdrew approximately $1.2 million worth of digital assets, and project losses could exceed that amount.
The company explained that the hacker used the instant loan to manipulate price divination, which calculates the value of LP tokens based on the balance of assets in the liquidity pool.
The attacker pulled 53 BTC and 100,000 USDT from the protocol. At the time of writing ~68 ETH is stored at the address associated with it. He sold the rest of the assets on decentralized exchange Uniswap and sent it to Ethereum mixer Tornado Cash’s address.
The Reverse Finance team also confirmed the hack. To prevent further loss of funds, the developers have temporarily disabled borrowing. They stressed that no user assets were affected during the incident.
Recall that in April 2022, an unknown person pulled over $15 million in digital assets from the Reverse Finance protocol. Then the hacker exploited a vulnerability in the Keep3r price prophecy.
