On Sept. 26, the DeFi protocol Onyx fell victim to a $3.8 million exploit, as reported by PeckShield. The exploit leveraged a known bug in Compound Finance v2, previously used against Onyx in November. A flaw in the NFT liquidation contract also played a role. The exploit resulted in the loss of virtual assets like VUSD, Onyxcoin, and stablecoins. The vulnerability in Compound Finance v2 has been exploited before, affecting protocols like Hundred Finance. Onyx acknowledged the incident, attributing it to the NFT contract. PeckShield confirmed the contract's role in the hack. DeFi vulnerabilities, like the one in Onyx, continue to pose risks for users, as seen in recent attacks on protocols like Bedrock and Bankroll Network.
