Founded in 2021, BlockSec has served over 50 clients and has protected over thousands of millions worth of digital assets in this year.

The BlockSec Team focuses on the security of the blockchain ecosystem, and collaborates with leading DeFi projects to secure their products. The team is founded by top-notch security researchers and experienced experts from both academia and industry. They have published multiple blockchain security papers in prestigious conferences, reported several zero-day attacks of DeFi applications, and released detailed analysis reports of high impact security incidents.

~$15.9M Lost: Trusted Volumes & More | BlockSec Weekly

This BlockSec bi-weekly security report covers 11 notable attack incidents identified between April 27 and May 10, 2026, across Sui, Ethereum, BNB Chain, Base, Blast, and Berachain, with total estimated losses of approximately $15.9M. Three incidents are analyzed in detail: the highlighted $1.14M Aftermath Finance exploit on Sui, where a signed/unsigned semantic mismatch in the builder-fee validation allowed an attacker to inject a negative fee that was converted into positive collateral during settlement; the $5.87M Trusted Volumes RFQ authorization mismatch on Ethereum; and the $5.7M Wasabi Protocol infrastructure-to-contract-control compromise across multiple EVM chains.

In April 2026, the DeFi ecosystem experienced three major security incidents. KelpDAO lost ~$290M due to an insecure 1-of-1 DVN bridge configuration exploited via RPC infrastructure compromise, Drift Protocol suffered ~$285M from a multisig governance takeover leveraging Solana's durable nonce mechanism, and Rhea Finance incurred ~$18.4M following a business logic flaw in its margin-trading module that allowed circular swap path manipulatio

~$7.04M Lost: GiddyDefi, Volo Vault & More | BlockSec Weekly

This BlockSec weekly security report covers eight attack incidents detected between April 20 and April 26, 2026, across Ethereum, Avalanche, Sui, Base, HyperLiquid, and MegaETH, with total estimated losses of approximately $7.04M. The highlighted incident is the $1.3M GiddyDefi exploit, where the attacker did not break any cryptography or use a flash loan but simply replayed an existing on-chain EIP-712 signature with the unsigned `aggregator` and `fromToken` fields swapped out for a malicious contract, demonstrating how partial signature coverage turns any historical signature into a generic permit. Other incidents include a $3.5M Volo Vault operator key compromise on Sui, a $1.5M Purrlend privileged-role takeover, a $413K SingularityFinance oracle misconfiguration, a $142.7K Scallop cross-pool index injection, a $72.35K Kipseli Router decimal mismatch, a $50.7K REVLoans (Juicebox) accounting pollution, and a $64K Custom Rebalancer arbitrary-call exploit.
