Web3 security firm Hacken said in a post on the X platform that the recent HAI security incident was not a hack attack, but a human error during the architecture change. The private keys of accounts with mint roles (ETH and BNB) were leaked, resulting in unauthorized HAI mints and BSC DEX dumps, but the deployer's wallet was not breached.
In this incident, Hacken's single-chain infrastructure on VeChain helped control the loss. The attackers were unable to bridge the tokens to VeChain or touch the CEX balance, nor were they allowed to deposit BSC/ETH into CEX (this was a deliberate design choice). The estimated loss was around $250,000. Now has full control over the minting of all subsequent tokens. The core infrastructure is always separate from the HAI infrastructure and remains secure. There is currently no evidence of any leakage beyond the private key. The team is conducting a comprehensive post-mortem analysis to provide clear conclusions and reassurance.
