Funds exceeding $1 million are at risk due to this security vulnerability. However, despite this vulnerability, it is thought that the high transaction fees on the Avalanche network will be a deterrent for hackers. Because trying to extract funds from the protocol may not be profitable for hackers.

” There is a lot of FUD regarding a Stars Arena exploit that has already been fixed, where it cost the attacker $0.25 to make $0.04, and the attacker only made $2,000 in total.
“Now that this has been resolved, let’s get back to having fun in the arena.”
So much FUD about a Stars Arena exploit that has (1) already been fixed, (2) cost the attacker $0.25 to make $0.04, and (3) the attacker extracted a sum total of only $2,000. Now that it’s over, let’s get back to having fun in the arena.
