Sessions
Coinspect uncovered vulnerabilities in over 40 cryptocurrency wallets, with varying severity levels. Many of these vulnerabilities let attackers compromise wallets simply by having users visit attacker-controlled websites, granting access to users' mnemonic phrases or forcing silent transaction signatures.
Along the way, we noticed a common denominator among the multiple vulnerabilities reported: the attack vector, which most of the times required a compromised or malicious DApp to successfully exploit them.
In response, we are developing a tool to detect early signs of DApp compromises, currently being tested with MetaMask Snaps. We invite individuals to a session to delve into these security issues, and our research projects.
