An attacker stole around 114 ETH ($305K) from two crypto wallets by exploiting a flaw in a tool connected to their Aave positions.
The bug let them create a fake Safe that pretended it had permission, tricking the system into treating it as trusted.
That access was then used to unlock collateral and drain the real wallets. Aave itself was not hacked.
