Polkadot Says Hyperbridge Flaw Limited to Ethereum-Gateway, Native DOT and Parachains Unaffected
Polkadot said on April 13 it has identified a security issue involving Hyperbridge's Ethereum gateway contract. The team said the vulnerability only affects DOT that was bridged to Ethereum through Hyperbridge, and does not impact DOT held within the Polkadot ecosystem or DOT transferred via other bridges. Polkadot, its parachains, and native DOT remain secure, it added. Hyperbridge has been temporarily suspended while the issue is investigated.
