Encryption KOL: Hackers are suspected of deploying malware in the old version of the game, resulting in four wallets being robbed of 118 SOL.

[Encryption KOL: Hacker Suspected of Deploying Malware in Old Version of Game, Leading to Theft of 118 SOL from Four Wallets] Encryption KOL Phineas.SOL disclosed on platform X that his four wallets were attacked by a hacker, resulting in a total loss of 118 SOL. It is reported that the hacker hacked into the Phantom extension and somehow obtained the private keys of all wallets, then emptied the funds in the wallets. Phineas.SOL revealed that the only recent installation was the old version of the game ‘MW3’ installed through Steam, which may contain a wallet malware carrier. The security officer of “Pudgy Penguins,” Beau, explained that considering the frequency of downloading games/mods, protecting the encryption wallet on a gaming computer is tantamount to self-destruction, and a dedicated computer should be used for encryption. Alternatively, a better method is to use a hardware Wallet to keep the keys offline, or use MPC/multi-signature to reduce single points of failure.
