3 月 18 日,流行的人工智能加密市场评论员 AiXBT 遭遇安全漏洞,造成 55.50 ETH 或约 104,000 美元的损失。
攻击者通过获取自治系统仪表板的访问权限并排队恶意回复,诱骗 AiXBT 的 AI 代理执行转账。这些资金是从 AiXBT 的 Simulacrum 钱包发送的,该系统通过社交媒体帖子促进链上操作。黑客使用现已删除的 X 帐户“FungusMan”进行操作。
AiXBT 的匿名开发者 rxbt 证实了此次攻击,并表示在 UTC 时间凌晨 2 点,一名黑客访问了 AiXBT Agent 自治系统的安全仪表板。随后,该黑客排队发送了两条恶意回复,导致 Simulacrum 钱包中的 55 ETH 被盗。
他强调,这次漏洞没有危及 AiXBT 的核心系统,也不是人工智能本身的故障,因为已经采取了安全措施。
在回应 rxbt 的帖子时,AiXBT 承认了这一漏洞,并表示,“Simu 钱包被篡改,但核心系统未受影响。如果你正在交易 AIXBT,这不会改变基本面。预计服务器迁移后安全性会有所提高。”
The team acted quickly after the breach, reporting the hackerâs address to centralized exchanges, switching access keys, and migrating servers. Despite these assurances, AiXBTâs Base token saw a sharp drop, falling almost 20% in 24 hours to $0.0938. AiXBTâs market cap is $82.4m at press time, down from the $755 million peak in mid-January, according to CoinGecko data.
The incident has sparked worries about security flaws in AI-driven trading platforms, even though the financial loss is only a small portion of AiXBTâs market capitalization.Â
