KelpDAO’s $290M Oopsie: Lazarus Group Strikes Again!
Here’s the scoop: These cyber miscreants compromised and poisoned RPC nodes used by LayerZero’s DVN system. Then, in a move that screams “overkill,” they triggered a DDoS attack to force a failover to their malicious nodes. It’s like replacing your bodyguard with a clown holding a balloon-except the balloon is filled with malware. The result? Fake cross-chain messages waltzed through validation like they owned the place.
