#BHUSA: New Zero-Day Vulnerabilities Could Instantly Drain Crypto Wallets

Multiple zero-day vulnerabilities have been discovered in some of the most used cryptographic multi-party computation (MPC) protocols, putting consumers’ cryptocurrency funds at risk of theft. In findings presented during Black Hat USA on Wednesday, August 9, the Fireblocks Cryptography Research Team said that the vulnerabilities, if left unpatched, would enable attackers to drain funds from the wallets of millions of retail and institutional customers “in seconds.” The details of the zero-days have now been made public following a 90-day responsible disclosure process.
