Via their official Twitter handle, the Ethereum-based decentralized finance (DeFi) protocol Curve Finance has confirmed a vulnerability in their nameserver or frontend curve.fi which was successfully reverted. Earlier, the team behind the project advised caution to its users and claimed an investigation has been launched to look into any potential vulnerabilities exploit.

The team behind the project said:

The issue has been found and reverted. If you have approved any contracts on Curve in the past few hours, please revoke immediately. Please use curve.exchange for now until the propagation for curve.fi reverts to normal

The team behind the project shared a potential theory about what could be affecting their frontend. A bad actor might have “cloned” their frontend, making it look like it is the same as the Curve Finance product, to affect people accessing it.

The team behind the project shared the following theory from Lefteris Karapetsas, founder of Rotkia App, about the attack affecting their Domain Name System (DNS):

It’s DNS spoofing. Cloned the site, made the DNS point to their ip where the cloned site is deployed and added approval requests to a malicious contract.

Therefore, anyone attempting to access Curve Finance’s curve.fi frontend should refrain from it until there are more details behind the potential attack. In a separate tweet, the team behind the project said that curve.exchange frontend seems to be unaffected.

Any Curve Finance user should revoke transaction approval for the following ETH smart contract addresses: 0x9Eb5F8e83359Bb5013f3D8eee60bDCe5654e8881 and watch out for transactions from address 0x50f9202e0f1c1577822BD67193960B213CD2f331 which the attacker could be using.

Curve Finance Tokens Sees Correction Following Attack

Curve Finance is, at least, the fourth project to be impacted by this DNS hijacking attack, according to Karapetsas. Other DeFi projects victims of these attacks include Ribbon Finance, DeFi Saver, and Convex Finance. Alex Smirnov, a co-founder of deBridge, said the following about this recent attack:

DNS is always a weak link. Here is how we solve this in deBridge and I think every DeFi project should have this.We have an automated monitoring system that checks the hash of the website and all its files. In case hash is changed, critical monitoring is immediately triggered.

Curve Finance claims that the issue could have originated from iwantmyname a DNS manager, but they are yet to offer more details about the incident. As the attack unveiled, the CRV token recorded a 10% correction in the past 24 hours.

Reynaldo Marquez

A literature major, Reynaldo Márquez has been deeply immersed in the crypto industry since 2017. His journey began with translating articles for various crypto news outlets, a role he took on with zeal. In 2018, amidst a challenging market, he embraced his first writing assignment, demonstrating his unwavering commitment to the nascent industry and the promise of change it bears for many people worldwide.
In March 2021, he joined the prestigious crypto news outlet NewsBTC and Bitcoinist, where he not only reported on the latest crypto news but also had the privilege of interviewing some of the industry's most influential figures. A year later, his dedication and hard work were recognized, and he was promoted to Managing Editor, a position he currently holds with pride.
He believes in honesty, good communication, hard work, and the power of cryptocurrency and its potential to transform people's lives, especially those alienated by the legacy financial system. Born in 1992 in Venezuela, Reynaldo is familiar with how governments and central banks can negatively affect people, their everyday lives, and their futures by creating inflation and erasing their hopes for a better future. Thus, like many Venezuelans, he embraced this new technology to help him and his family navigate difficult times.
In another life, Reynaldo would have pursued a career as an investigator, most likely tracking down the origins of the Cyberpunk movement with the publication of William Gibson’s ‘Neuromancer.’ The intersection between fiction and reality, with the materialization of Bitcoin in 2009, would have allowed him to dive deep into the crypto sphere as something more than a financial phenomenon but also a cultural shift in society that was brewing since the XX century, and maybe even sooner, in the XIX century with the publication of Henry David Thoreau’s ‘Civil Disobedience.’
But that’s for another life. In this one, Reynaldo has been trading to improve his trading skills. Since 2023, he has been trying to learn Python to create successful strategies and find ways to execute them. It is a difficult task, which continues to keep him busy today and will most likely continue to keep him busy in the near and long term.
In his free time, he enjoys lifting heavy objects, reading, watching movies, and listening to his favorite music. Some of his favorite authors are Walt Whitman, William Faulkner, Allen Ginsberg, James Baldwin, Raymond Carver, Ray Bradbury, George Orwell, Mario Vargas Llosa, Reinaldo Arenas, Rafael Cadenas, and many others. Lately, he has been primarily interested in reading about dystopic societies, a topic that deeply resonates with the crypto industry.
Since 2023, he has lived in Spain with his wife. He loves the weather, the food, and the people and their culture. They both expect to travel much more within the country they now call home and beyond its border. He hopes to retire with his wife, maybe in a quiet place near a beach, but most likely in a city close to a library and a university with his kids and, hopefully, grandkids.
