MANTRA Chain Grinds to Halt After Upstream Vulnerability Exploit

MANTRA Chain suspended all network activity on August 20 and 21 after detecting an attacker exploiting a vulnerability in an upstream dependency.

The team identified the flaw, is preparing a patch, and tracing where affected funds moved. However, the full impact remains unconfirmed.

MANTRA's token fell by 18.5% to an all-time low within minutes of the chain's last block, with several exchanges pausing deposits and withdrawals.

The company has assured users that only verified updates will be shared through its official channels.
