#Berachain #BEX #BalancerV2 #exploit #recovery #whitehat #HONEY #crypto #blockchain #security #fundrecovery #APR #onchain #cryptoexchange #BGT #cryptoincident
According to PANews, the Berachain Foundation announced the recovery of approximately $12.8 million stolen in the BEX/Balancer V2 exploit. The funds have been returned to the foundation's deployment wallet. The team expressed gratitude to the white-hat hackers who assisted in the recovery and plans to remove malicious labels from their addresses, considering a bounty as a token of appreciation.
Currently, all BEX functionalities, including exchange, withdrawal, and deposit, remain restricted, although the minting and redemption of HONEY have resumed. Due to the suspension of BGT and incentives over the past 24 hours, the on-chain APR may display anomalies.
The Berachain core team is developing a system to allocate the affected funds to the original user addresses. Deposits unaffected by the exploit are also currently non-withdrawable, a precautionary measure as the team closely monitors Balancer's ongoing investigation to ensure the safe return of all user funds.#Berachain #BEX #BalancerV2 #exploit #recovery #whitehat #HONEY #crypto #blockchain #security #fundrecovery #APR #onchain #cryptoexchange #BGT #cryptoincident

According to Odaily, a vulnerability has impacted Balancer V2's composable stable pools, as announced by Banlancer's official account on the X platform. The issue was identified around 15:48 on November 3, UTC+8. The Balancer team is collaborating with top security researchers to understand the problem and will soon share further investigation results and a comprehensive post-analysis report.
The affected pools have been operational on the blockchain for several years, with many exceeding the pause window period. All pools that could be paused have been suspended and are currently in recovery mode. Other Balancer pools remain unaffected, and the issue is limited to V2 composable stable pools, not impacting Balancer V3 or other pools.
Balancer is committed to operational security, having undergone audits by leading companies and maintaining a long-term bug bounty program to incentivize independent auditors. The team is working closely with security and legal teams to ensure user safety and conduct a swift and thorough investigation. They express gratitude to partners and the broader DeFi community for their support.
A security advisory warns of fraudulent messages impersonating the Balancer security team. These messages are not from Balancer, and users are advised not to respond to unsolicited communications or click on unknown links. Official updates will be released only through Balancer's official account on X (Twitter) and their official Discord server. Users should be cautious of information from other sources, as it may be fraudulent. As the investigation progresses, Balancer will provide comprehensive updates with more details.#BalancerV2 #Vulnerability #ComposableStablePools #BlockchainSecurity #DeFi #SecurityInvestigation #Balancer #BugBounty #DeFiCommunity #FraudulentMessages #SecurityAdvisory #CryptoSecurity #XPlatform #CryptoNews
🚀 Balancer V2 Vulnerability Leads to Significant Financial Losses
#BalancerV2 #Vulnerability #SecurityBreach #FinancialLoss #SlowMist #BlockchainSecurity #Crypto #StableSwap #TokenExchange #LiquidityIssues #Auditing
According to Foresight News, the SlowMist security team has released an analysis report on a major vulnerability in Balancer V2. This flaw has affected multiple projects and their forked versions across various blockchains, resulting in an estimated total loss of $120 million. SlowMist identified the root cause as a precision loss issue in the integer fixed-point operations used to calculate scaling factors within the composable stable pools of Balancer V2, which are based on Curve's StableSwap stable mathematics. This issue led to small but cumulative price discrepancies during token exchanges. Attackers exploited this vulnerability by executing a series of small exchanges under low liquidity conditions, amplifying the cumulative deviation into substantial profits.
SlowMist emphasized that project teams and auditors should enhance their testing coverage for extreme scenarios and boundary conditions, particularly focusing on precise handling strategies under low liquidity conditions.#BalancerV2 #Vulnerability #SecurityBreach #FinancialLoss #SlowMist #BlockchainSecurity #Crypto #StableSwap #TokenExchange #LiquidityIssues #Auditing
