Deficling Protocol Credix suffered an exploitation of $ 4.5 million After the attackers gained administrative control of the multisigo wallet and abused the bridge privileges on coin -coated repair of collateral chips.
The violation occurred six days before the detection, when the compromised account of the administrator was awarded several roles at a high level, including the pool administrator, bridge controller and emergency administrator authorization.
Blockchain security firms Slowmist and Peckshield He identified that the attacker used the addresses financed in Tornado cash to bridge funds to Sonic Network before using the bridge to directly coin the ACUSDC tokens.
The hacker then borrowed large amounts against the worthless collateral and exhausted approximately $ 2.64 million from the protocol rental funds.
Attack mirrors previous exchanging exploitation using a manager compromise
The use of CREDIX is governed by a pattern established by the main crypto hacks, including WAZIRX violations of $ 234 million in July 2024. Both attacks included an endangered administrative approach that circumvented normal security measures through legitimate transactions from justified accounts.
Security analysis revealed that the attacker address 0xF321 *** 662E had extensive permissions across the CREDIX infrastructure.
The roles of pool_admin, bridge, asset_listing_admin, emergency_admin and risk_admin provided comprehensive control over protocol operations and asset management.
The abuse of the bridge’s role allowed direct postponement of collateral chips without asset support and created an artificial value that supported massive rental positions.
After the swimming pools are exhausted, most of the stolen means were overwhelmed back to Mainnet Ethereum without subsequent movement detected by monitoring systems. Credix immediately deactivated its website to prevent other user deposits and at the same time direct existing users to select funds directly through intelligent contracts.
The protocol had before secured a credit line of $ 60 million In 2023 he became the main player in institutional defined markets.
The attack methodology resembles a hack wazirx, where harmful actors manipulated the multisig wallet to force justified signatories to approve endangered intelligent contracts.
Both incidents used open vulnerabilities in well -known controls of administrative approach and implementation of Multisig security.
