The Shibarium cross-chain bridge that connects Layer 2 network Shibarium to Ethereum was hit by a lightning loan attack this week, and about $2.40 million of ETH and SHIB were stolen. Shibarium has released a security update, which states:
1. Certain bridging operations have been restricted to prevent new unauthorized transactions.
2. Upgrade and limit the paths that can be abused (deposits/withdrawals/claims/rewards), and add targeted defensive controls to prevent abuse of entrusted pledges.
3. Restore and protect the at-risk BONE held by the pledge manager, and the attacker's short-term BONE pledge will be effectively limited by intervention and protocol mechanisms;
4. Rotate validator signers, migrate contract control to multi-party hardware custody; continue to migrate widely from legacy keys;
5. Monitor attacker traffic in real time; automatically alert and report to partners and exchanges.
6. Hire independent security researchers, incident response companies, and relevant departments.
