JUST IN: Ledger CTO Issues Critical Warning
đ¸Ledgerâs CTO warns of a âlarge-scaleâ crypto hack targeting the JavaScript ecosystem.
đ¸Attackers appear to have hijacked a widely used JavaScript package (error-ex, npm), injecting malware that automatically swaps intended wallet addresses with those controlled by hackers.
đ¸The malware silently hijacks transactions across multiple cryptocurrenciesâBitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, and moreâwhile users may believe theyâre sending funds to legitimate addresses.
đ¸Urgent recommendation: If youâre not using a hardware wallet that displays the true recipient address (like Ledger devices), avoid all on-chain transactions for now.
đ¸This is being described as possibly the largest open-source supply chain attack in history, underlining the systemic risk posed by poisoned JavaScript libraries.
