The security incident is nearing a close. NEAR AI officially confirmed that NEAR AI Cloud is back online. The team has patched the vulnerability on all servers and rotated the affected credentials to prevent any lingering access from being exploited again.
One key point: the NEAR Protocol mainnet and other services in the NEAR ecosystem were not affected. On-chain assets and the core protocol are operating normally. This means the risk was contained to the AI cloud service layer, rather than the protocol itself, making the scope of impact relatively clear. The team has promised to publish a full incident report soon, which should shed light on the intrusion path, the extent of the impact, and follow-up remediation measures.
This incident is also a reminder to all project teams and users: reusing credentials across services is often a key factor that magnifies risk, while quickly rotating keys and proactively publishing a postmortem are hallmarks of mature incident response. Until the full report is released, it may be best to wait and assess the actual impact on the $NEAR ecosystem.
