Encrypted KOL: Hackers suspected of deploying malware in older versions of the game, resulting in the theft of 118 SOL pieces from four wallets
Internet reports that cryptographic KOL Phineas.SOL published a document on the X platform revealing that four of its wallets were hacked and a total of 118 SOL were lost. It is reported that the hackers hacked into the Phantom extension program and somehow obtained the private keys of all wallets and emptied the wallets. funds. Phineas.SOL revealed that the only recent installation was an older version of the MW3 game installed through Steam, which may contain wallet malware carriers. Beau, security director at Pudgy Penguins, explained that considering the frequency of downloading games/modules, protecting encrypted wallets on game computers is tantamount to suicide and a dedicated computer should be used for encryption. Alternatively, a better approach is to use hardware wallets to keep keys offline, or use MPC/multi-signature to reduce single points of failure.
