LI FI, a cross-chain transaction aggregator, recently experienced a security breach, leading to a loss of over $9.7 million. The breach, reported by Cybers Alerts, involved the Ethereum address 0x1231deb6f5749ef6ce6943a275a1d3e7486f4eae, prompting users to revoke approvals immediately.
The attacker withdrew primarily stablecoins, including USDC and USDT, and exchanged them for ETH. LI FI has advised users to avoid using its applications and revoke approvals for specific addresses to prevent further unauthorized access.
This breach highlights the growing security concerns within the DeFi sector, following similar incidents like the UwU Lend hack, which resulted in a $19.3 million loss.
