Security and Bounties 9/2-9/9: Penpie's $27M Exploit, Arbitrum's $2.5M Subsidy Fund, Euler v2 $1M Bug Bounty

Security 👾

Penpie suffered a ~$30M exploit
  • Penpie, the decentralized liquidity yield project, suffered a ~$27M exploit due to Penpie’s erroneous assumption that all markets created by Pendle Finance are legitimate when registering new Pendle markets.
  • Christopher Mooney revealed that the private key for the DAI L2 deployer has been compromised, resulting in some recently deployed L2 DAI contract addresses being controlled by attackers, turning them into honeypot addresses.
  • Areta is launching a $2.5M Subsidy Fund to subsidize security services for projects in the Arbitrum ecosystem.
