DeFi vulnerability leading to $6.7M exploit ‘not detected’ by auditors By



Decentralized U.S. dollar stablecoin protocol Raft claims that despite multiple security audits, the firm still suffered a security exploit leading to the loss of $6.7 million last week.

According to the project’s Nov. 13 post-mortem report, a few days prior, a hacker borrowed 6,000 Coinbase-wrapped staked Ether (cbETH) on decentralized finance protocol Aave, transferred the sum to Raft, and minted 6.7 million Raft stablecoin, dubbed “R,” using a smart contract glitch.
