Yesterday around 10:00PM for the first time i drink MonsterEnergy drink. What's in this thing that makes me feel more focused and sharper i swear for full 5hours straight i locked-in i don't feel tired, sleepy or distracted full focus. I don't even scroll through reels for once. i m learning Blockchain development and web3 security research. $ETH $BNB #SecurityAlert #Audit
🔍 $150K Drained from Scallop via 17-Month-Old Deprecated Package
An attacker bypassed the active SDK and called a deprecated V2 package from November 2023 — where last_index was never initialized, crediting them with 17 months of accumulated rewards instantly.
On Sui, packages are immutable and forever callable — every old version stays a live attack surface unless shared objects enforce version checks.
🚨 Kipseli.capital just got wrecked $72.35K drained in a classic decimal mismatch attack (2026-04-22) MEV bot swapped 0.04 WETH ($95) → received 0.926 cbBTC ($72.35K) through the PropAMM Router.
Docs say pricing is USDC-denominated. Attacker used unsupported WETH→cbBTC path. The pricing stack spit out a 6-decimal USDC-scale quote (92,610,395) and the contract transferred it directly as 8-decimal cbBTC. One integer, two completely different values. On-chain signer only binds (tokenIn, tokenOut, timestamp) with a hardcoded key zero check on amountIn or rate. No sanity, instant exploit.
What is a Decimal Mismatch Attack? A decimal mismatch attack happens when a smart contract’s pricing/oracle logic assumes one token’s decimal precision (e.g. USDC’s 6 decimals) but the actual token being transferred uses a different precision (e.g. cbBTC’s 8 decimals).
The contract receives an integer quote scaled for the expected decimals, then blindly uses that same raw integer as the transfer amount for the higher-decimal token. Because each extra decimal place multiplies the real value by 10, a “small” USDC-scale number becomes an enormous payout when interpreted as a BTC-scale token.
The attacker simply chooses an unsupported swap path that triggers the wrong decimal scaling while the signer never validates amountIn, rate, or price direction turning a $95 swap into a $72K windfall in one transaction.
Introducing the $MON dedicated device subsidy program
Monad Foundation will be subsidizing the cost of dedicated signing laptops, for multisig, treasury, and other critical operations, to all protocol teams with at least $2.5M of TVL on Monad.
Your signing machine should NEVER be the same as the one you use for everyday browsing, coding, or taking calls.
