Ledger Library Exploit Explainer for Average Folks:
Hudson Jameson

What is going on with the recent alerts not to use dapps?
A library that is used by many dapps that is maintained by Ledger was compromised and a wallet drainer was added.

What do I do as a normal user?
Do not interact with any dapp front ends on websites for now. This is an ongoing situation and it is risky to use dapps currently if you don't understand what backend libraries they use.

How does this drain your money?
If you visit the website you won't get automatically drained or your funds. However, prompts from your browser wallet (like MM) will display that give your assets to the malicious actors.

Does Ledger know about this?
Yes they do and are working on it.

Note: Even after Ledger corrects the bad code in their library, projects using and deploying that library will need to update things before it is safe to use dapps that use Ledger's web3 libraries.

The first connect-kit version with the drainer (1.1.6) was added to the npm registry at 9:44am UTC. Check that you have not interacted with any UIs starting this time β€” FrankResearcher

RED ALERT 🚨: dingaling

If you've ever used NFT Trader [nft Marketplace] in the past, revoke approval to their contract ASAP (0x13d8faF4A690f5AE52E2D2C52938d1167057B9af)

*So far already 37 BAYC and 13 MAYC have already been drained to this address.

Boring Security: if you have any apes in lending protocols and have ever used NFTTrader, revoke approvals to NFTTrader before withdrawing.

It is most important to get folks who have deposits in BendDAO and Paraspace to revoke! For as soon as they withdraw they will be drained!

COMMON issues which have caused people to lose money:
1) Account hacked online πŸ’»
2) Phishing Email/SMS link πŸ“©
3) Copy/Paste Malware 🦠

It is quite sad to see it happen but here are some important cyber security habits to practice to combat against each one:

1. Yubikey/Hardware key πŸ”
- If you attach a hardware key to your accounts and devices it becomes almost impossible for an online hacker to gain access because you need to touch the physical device to login
- If you can do this you will eliminate basically 99% of any online hacking attempts on your account because every time to sign in you need the physical key and you must touch it with your finger
- Please note that NOT ALL exchanges/platforms offer this security feature.

2. Anti-Phishing code 🎣
- Many people get scammed because they receive an email or SMS that LOOKS legitimate but is actually sent by a scammer and when you click any links or download the document it will steal your information and compromise your accounts
- Please note that even if the email sender's address LOOKS legitimate it could still be FAKE because scammers have ways to fake it and trick you
- To prevent this some exchanges/platforms have an Anti-Phishing code feature where you can set up a secret code only you know and every email you receive MUST contain that code if it is a legitimate email
- This is one of the fastest ways to differentiate between real and scam emails.

3. Whitelisted Addresses βœ…
There is a type of malware/virus on the internet that can cause your crypto wallet addresses to change suddenly without you realizing it
These malware can infect your device and when you copy a wallet address, it will take notice and the moment you click PASTE the malware will insert another wallet address instead so you will end up sending your funds to the WRONG address
Most of us do not properly and fully check wallet addresses and sometimes even if you check it can still be an issue because the address changes later
To solve this please use your exchange/platforms Whitelisting address option so that once you have confirmed an address, it is saved and will not change due to malware/virus


As a general rule, if you are involved in crypto please make sure you DO NOT have a single point of failure.🚨 Have a few different secured places for your crypto.
