Indian crypto exchange WazirX reveals details about major security breach causing theft of over😤😱 $230 million..

According to the WazirX's 'Preliminary report', the compromised wallet had been using Liminal’s digital asset custody and wallet infrastructure since February 2023. According to the report, this wallet required approvals from six signatories (people who approve transactions) – five from WazirX and one from Liminal. To complete a transaction, three WazirX signatories and the Liminal signatory had to approve it. They also had a security rule allowing transactions only to pre-approved addresses

How did the hack happen?😳

The attackers managed to exploit a gap between what was shown on Liminal’s interface and what was actually happening in the transaction. They altered the transaction to gain control of the wallet, bypassing the security measures.
