According to Odaily, a notable bot platform has been identified with a potential vulnerability that could lead to private key exposure. This issue was discovered by a white hat hacker who reported the flaw. However, the disclosure has sparked some controversy regarding the bounty for the vulnerability. The white hat hacker expressed concerns about the platform facing risks similar to previous decentralized exchange hacks. They are worried that if such an incident occurs, traces left by them during the investigation might be misinterpreted, prompting them to seek ways to prove their innocence.
The individual known as Yuxian from SlowMist highlighted the situation on the X platform, emphasizing the neutrality of the term 'white hat' in this context. Yuxian noted that it is currently impossible to verify who is right or wrong in this situation, or to what extent each party is correct. If the bot platform is compromised in the future, the information shared by the white hat hacker could serve as a point of verification. This situation underscores the ongoing challenges in cybersecurity, where identifying and addressing vulnerabilities is crucial to prevent potential breaches and maintain trust in digital platforms.
