Hacks

Date: Nov 4, 2025

Amount: $1m

Classification: Oracle Manipulation

Technique: Spot Price Manipulation

On November 4, 2025, Moonwell on Base and Optimism was exploited for $1 million when the Chainlink oracle incorrectly priced wrapped restaked Ethereum (wrstETH) at ~$5.8M instead of actual value, allowing a flash loan attack to repeatedly borrow against false collateral.

Chains: Base, Optimism

Language: Solidity

Target Type: DeFi Protocol

Date: Feb 15, 2026

Amount: $1.78m

Classification: Oracle Manipulation

Technique: Oracle Misconfiguration

Moonwell Lending on Base suffered a $1.78M loss when AI-generated code misconfigured the cbETH oracle to price it at $1.12 instead of nearly $2,200, failing to multiply the exchange rate by the price feed. This enabled abnormal liquidations and borrowing.

Chains: Base

Language: Solidity

Target Type: DeFi Protocol

Date: Aug 27, 2026

Amount: $8.7m

Classification: Oracle Manipulation

Technique: Spot Price Manipulation

The attacker manipulated the spot price of the relatively illiquid MAMO token, increasing the collateral value recognized by Moonwell. The attacker used the inflated MAMO collateral to borrow liquid assets including cbBTC, ETH/WETH, USDC, and wstETH, leaving the lending markets with undercollateralized positions

Chains: Base
