Not So Safe
2025-03-13 • Rekt •
Rekt News summarizes reporting on the Bybit Safe{Wallet} compromise as a TraderTraitor and Lazarus-linked social-engineering operation against a Safe developer. The article cites forensic work from Sygnia, Verichains, Mandiant, Safe, and Bybit showing that a developer's macOS workstation was compromised through a malicious Docker project, after which attackers accessed Safe's AWS environment and injected malicious JavaScript into the interface used by Bybit signers. The malicious interface swapped a routine transfer for a delegatecall that upgraded the Safe implementation and enabled the theft of about $1.4 billion in ETH. The timeline emphasizes abuse of developer access, AWS session tokens, UI manipulation, and signer blind spots rather than a smart-contract zero-day.
