Abstract generation in progress
Axelar Network said a recent security incident came from an infinite minting vulnerability in a third-party token contract. Axelar said neither Axelar Network itself nor the IBC protocol was attacked or compromised. The affected contract was a forked CW20-ICS20 implementation that removed two core security checks and had no new security audit.
