OpenLeverage

<p class="is-style-lead">The Velvet Capital team has urged users to avoid connecting their digital wallets to the protocol’s website, citing a potential front-end attack on the website.</p> 
<p>Velvet Capital, a decentralized finance (<a href="https://crypto.news/tag/defi/" target="_blank" rel="">defi</a>) protocol, that works as an asset management dashboard, may have been targeted by hackers who exploited vulnerabilities in the website’s front-end. In an X post on Apr. 23, the team said that the protocol’s website suffered what appears to be a front-end attack, allowing bad actors to exploit vulnerabilities and potentially compromise user data or perform unauthorized actions on the platform.</p>

<p>While specifics regarding the nature of the attack remain unclear, the Velvet team says it has “promptly identified the issue and, together with top security researchers, investigated the malicious activity &amp; the issue is being fixed.” The team also reassured users that the protocol’s smart contracts “are not affected,” emphasizing that the issue occurred on the front-end only. As of press time, users are still adviced not to interact with the website.</p>

<p>A spokesperson for Velvet Capital said in <a href="https://t.me/velvetcapital/41260" target="_blank" rel="">a Telegram post</a> that “no known users were impacted,” adding that those who fell victim to the attack, can create a ticket on the project’s Discord server. However, analysts at a blockchain analytics firm Scam Sniffer <a href="https://x.com/realScamSniffer/status/1782619464321941912" target="_blank" rel="">argue</a> the opposite, saying “there should be [victims],” although no details were given on the matter as of press time.</p>

This incident comes shortly after the permissionless money market protocol OpenLeverage — which was also backed by Binance Labs — also <a href="https://crypto.news/binance-labs-backed-openleverage-suffers-236k-exploit/" target="_blank" rel="">suffered</a> a hacker attack earlier in April, resulting in a $236,000 loss allegedly caused by an attack funded via Tornado Cash.</p>
