  • Hedgey Protocol lost $44.7 million in a double cyberattack.
  • The protocol targeted both Arbitrum and Ethereum chains.
  • Hedgey advises users to revoke authorizations and cancel active charges pending an ongoing investigation.

Decentralized finance (DeFi) platform Hedgey Protocol is in the throes of a cyber siege after suffering a devastating attack that resulted in massive losses of $44.7 million across its Arbitrum and Ethereum blockchains.

Cybers Alerts, a leading cybersecurity watchdog, discovered vulnerabilities exploited in the attack, raising urgent concerns about the security environment within the DeFi ecosystem.

Hedgey protocol hacked on Arbitrum and Ethereum chains

Cybers Alerts said the attack targeted Hedgey Protocol on both the Arbitrum and Ethereum chains, resulting in the theft of $42.8 million and $1.9 million respectively.

According to Cyners Alerts, the attackers quickly converted the stolen funds into DAI, complicating recovery efforts. Additionally, additional transactions on the Arbitrum chain represent potential vulnerabilities within the ecosystem, requiring immediate action.

In response, Hedge Protocol acknowledged the attack and said it had launched a comprehensive investigation into the breach, working closely with security experts and auditors to understand the root cause of the attack.

As the investigation continues, Hedge Protocol has issued an urgent advisory urging users to cancel active claims and revoke all authorizations to mitigate the risk of further exploitation. They recommended reviewing authorizations immediately while an investigation is underway to ensure user security and prevent potential loss of funds. Users were also warned to remain vigilant against scammers looking to take advantage of the situation, emphasizing the importance of cautious online behavior.

Security Alert: We are investigating an attack against our Hedge Token Claim Contract. If you have created an active claim, please cancel it using the “End Token Claim” button at https://t.co/Tt7Aq0n2dh.

We are actively working with auditors and teams to understand the attack…

The Hedge Protocol cyberattack highlights the interconnectedness of DeFi platforms and the need for robust security protocols in the evolving decentralized finance landscape.

As stakeholders work together to address vulnerabilities and strengthen security measures, the incident serves as a stark reminder of the ongoing challenges cyber threats pose in the digital asset space.
