On October 4, 2026, a vault on the Base chain was attacked. Security firm Blockaid monitoring indicates that the attacker added a brand-new contract to the vault’s whitelist, borrowed aBaswstETH (a staked-asset certificate related to wstETH, the $ETH staked asset on Aave on Base) from the vault, and transferred it to a contract under their control; in the initial phase there were about 4 transactions, with losses of approximately $2.02 million, and the attack is still ongoing.
Subsequently, Spot On Chain monitoring found that losses expanded to about $6 million, involving around 1,783 wstETH. The attacker’s address is 0x0B5126…B034. The monitoring party believes systemic risk is currently limited, but warns that the attacker’s potential sale of wstETH may cause short-term pressure on LST depeg.
