The decentralized Bitcoin trading platform BISQ reports a recently discovered security vulnerability in its protocol.



BISQ platform reported the theft of approximately 11 Bitcoins in a targeted exploit that affected altcoin trading. This estimate is still preliminary based on user reports and data analysis.

The attacker used a multi-signature with a value of 0.001 Bitcoin and a fee of 10,000 Satoshis, resulting in a clear transaction fingerprint on the blockchain.

The main reason was the lack of transaction validation, which allowed the beneficiary to submit a negative mining fee.

This led to lowering the multi-signature threshold and redirecting the remaining funds to the attacker's transfer address.

Developers say the process may be AI-powered, but this is unconfirmed, as the investigation is still ongoing...
