Hackers Hijack 12 DeFi Websites, Drain $138K
Hackers hijacked 12 decentralized finance (DeFi) websites registered with Name.com, draining approximately $138,000. The attack targeted the domain names instead of the smart contracts, using a front-end attack to redirect users to a malicious script. The compromised domains all depended on Name.com's nameservers, allowing the attackers to redirect multiple unrelated projects in one campaign. Some affected teams recovered by moving their domains to different name servers, while others like StonkFun reported no impact.
