BlockSec, interesting claim about altcoin transactions
According to a cybersecurity firm that reported the vulnerability on Sept. 18, the Ethereum PoW Blockchain suffered a replay vulnerability. The attacker received an additional 200 ETHW tokens after repeating a message from the PoS Blockchain on ETHPoW. According to BlockSec, the attack occurred because the bridge’s cross-chain did not sufficiently verify the true chain identity of the message.
According to the ETHPoW Blockchain development team, the attack targeted the bridge’s contract vulnerability rather than its network. The development team also stated that they have been trying to contact Omni Bridge since September 17 to report the risks. Unfortunately, the Omni Bridge did not respond quickly enough to a feedback request. The PoW fork has only been in operation for a few days, and an early attack could impact its future adoption.
