PANews, December 8—According to discussions on the X platform, several developers believe that although the yETH attack was attributed to fuzz testing, the actual attack path was complex and may have involved gradually amplifying the damage after discovering an exploitable original vulnerability. Curve founder Michael Egorov stated that fuzz testing can reveal mathematical function failures, and similar attacks on yETH and Balancer could be completely avoided by setting input limits.
It was reported last week that Yearn: The complexity of the yETH pool attack is similar to the previous Balancer attack.
