CHECK YOUR FUCKING WALLETS
THE COLD STORAGE EXPLOIT IS REAL I JUST LOST EVERYTHING
I put my cold storage into a hardware wallet, into another cold storage, into a bank deposit box, then I buried my 24 word passphrase in a very secure box in the mountains.
Am I safe?
No they can ping it offline and directly access it and transfer out. Really clever shit
no, god knows you touch yourself to loli pics you degen
wtf i just checked the paper wallet i had stored in my freezer.
it's all gone.
No, I did the same. Didn't touch them for years. 4 hours ago, someone took them from my wallet. Nearly $90,000 in link gone in a second. Luckily I still have 50k link on a paper wallet
QUANTUM TIME TRAVELING SPACE NIGGAS ARE ROBBING YOU
ME TOO WTF AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
My bank isnt open... wtf do I do?
I guess i'm hiking in the mountains for 5 hours tonight...
>What is this exploit?
There's a security layer in LINK's source code that deals with storage ticks. Basically, even in cold storage where they're untouched, there's a cache protocol that will occasionally ping public wallet addresses to verify their contents. Unfortunately, LINK has a slightly different version of this protocol in order to make micro-pings for staking purposes. Most staking rewards are going to be really small transfers, so the LINK devs lowered the tick rate for these pings. However, if you're using a hardware wallet, your storage is operating at the NORMAL tick rate, creating a cache gap where someone can use an SLQ% injection to gain access to your wallet. There's already been many posts of Anons opening up their wallets to find all their tokens transferred out to mysterious addresses, losing tens if not hundreds of thousands of dollars.
>Does this affect other tokens in my hardware wallet?
No, as this isn't a vulnerability with the wallet so much as Chainlink specifically. Other tokens, even on wallets that have been affected by the exploit, are safe.
>I haven't touch my wallet in years! Can someone really randomly gain access and steal my LINK?
Sadly, yes. This affects PUBLIC addresses, and these are most likely being chosen at random.
>I have my LINK on a hardware wallet! What do I do?
Either transfer them to a paper wallet (safest), an exchange, or trade for fiat.
>Can this be patched?
Yes, but it will take time. This isn't something that can be done in one week, as it's tied to the security layers focused on staking. These have to be rewritten very cautiously, else other major functions of the LINK source code can break.
is this serious or the entire board is larping?
It's serious. And a huge problem
>MANY POST OF ANONS
>no proof whatsoever
kill yourself larp fag
Wow this is super bullish for link. They steal all these coins and then can't sell them.
its serious.
Wow I just checked my wallet and it's all still there, worst fucking FUD in the history of FUDs
i'm literally shaking right now
Seriously serious ?
sadly its true, fucking sucks, already moved my link, hope it gets solved soon
Kekd
theres not much LINk transfers coming up on whale alert so its probably not treu
Super duper serious.
im really drunk right now and finally unbanned is this collective discord tranny ops or something, i just came back to Zig Forums to shitpost about niggers some more and suddenly there are 10 threads that seem like discord tranny ops
Its literally an army of eth miners trying to steal your money from transaction fees
This is literally the oldest trick in the book.
OMFGOOOOOOOODDDD go fuck yourself you had 3 years
this is a gay fucking op to get you to sell like all the other fudding
My LINK just flew over my house!
If you fall for this you are dumb as shit
Happened to me, I just 50,000 Link. Sad :(
>SQL Injection
On what database?
SLQ% not SQL
Its for real user. I don't even know what to do from here. Who do I contact?
>SLQ% injection
Whats an SLQ injection?
mind your own business
