Ethereum Suffers 4 Smart Contract Attacks in 48 Hours, Losses Exceed $1.5 Million

Gate News message, April 29 — Ethereum mainnet experienced four smart contract attacks over the past 48 hours (April 27-29), resulting in combined losses exceeding $1.5 million, according to GoPlus Security.

The incidents included an attack on the Onchain aggregator contract causing $983,000 in losses; a theft from a TradingProtocol third-party vault contract resulting in $398,000 in losses; an attack on the BCB contract exploiting a reentrancy vulnerability causing $39,800 in losses; and an arbitrary call vulnerability in another contract leading to $124,900 in QNT asset losses.

GoPlus Security warned that as artificial intelligence enters the hacking landscape, attacks are becoming increasingly precise and rapid, with vulnerability discovery windows compressed from “days” to “seconds.”
