Humanity has released the findings of an independent investigation by Quantstamp into a recent security breach that resulted in losses exceeding $31 million. The investigation revealed that the incident stemmed from a phishing attack, which led to the compromise of private keys. This allowed attackers to gain control of a smart contract and execute a token dump. The methods used in the attack bear similarities to those typically associated with North Korean hacker groups.
Despite the severity of the breach, Humanity confirmed that its mainnet bridge remained unaffected by the incident. The company is taking steps to enhance its security measures to prevent future occurrences of such attacks.
