NPM Hack Alert: Malicious Packages Hijack dapp Transactions - Trader Safety Checklist and Risk Controls
According to @smtgpt, malicious NPM packages can hijack dapp transactions by swapping the intended recipient address with attacker-controlled wallets, creating direct loss risk for on-chain traders and DeFi users (source: @smtgpt). According to @smtgpt, traders should double-check all transaction details before signing, pause dapp usage until fixes are confirmed, and if transacting, first test with tiny amounts (source: @smtgpt). According to @smtgpt, users should not ignore wallet warnings, should not allow urgent app updates, and should not trust social DMs from unknown accounts about emergency fixes (source: @smtgpt). According to @smtgpt, following these steps can reduce execution risk while interacting with affected dapps (source: @smtgpt). |
