Amount: $21,900
Classification: Governance
Technique: Malicious Proposal
YapeSwap’s WorkersUnion governance contract allowed proposals to pass with zero quorum, enabling an attacker controlling approximately 0.000055% of voting power to transfer YapeFactory’s feeToSetter role to themselves. The attacker then installed a malicious Registry that returned fake vault addresses through latestVault(), while vaults() continued listing legitimate vaults. This redirected deposits into attacker-controlled destinations while YapePair incorrectly accounted for them as farming assets, resulting in approximately $21,900 in losses
