A vault on Base lost approximately $6 million in deposit tokens during an apparent exploit on October 4. Security firm ExVul estimated the total loss from the incident, which targeted user funds within the ecosystem.
The attacker redeemed proceeds through Aave, with some funds entering bridge withdrawals that remained unfinalized as of October 5. The movement of assets through lending protocols and cross-chain bridges indicates active efforts to launder the stolen capital.
