😱 Deprecated Doesn't Always Mean Safe Aztec Connect was shut down more than a year ago, but one old smart contract still had $2.1M sitting inside and an attacker just found a way to drain it. 🔎 The exploit came from a verification bug in the deprecated Aztec Connect contract. The attacker withdrew around 909 $ETH , 270,000 DAI, 167 wstETH and several other assets across seven transactions. Aztec Labs confirmed the incident and said the live Aztec Network and its users were not affected. But there was one big problem: the old contracts were fully immutable, with no admin keys, no pause button, and no way to upgrade the code. As crypto infrastructure gets older, this is a reminder that "deprecated" doesn't always mean risk-free - especially when real funds are still locked in old contracts. #ETH #Macro Insights# #ETHBlockchain
