Gnosis Co-founder Announces Urgent Actions to Contain Security Breach and Fund Exposure

Security Breach Tied to Module Flaw, Prompting Immediate Action

In response to a recently identified security incident, Gnosis co-founder Martin Köppelmann confirmed that the issue stems from a vulnerability within the Zodiac Delay Module. Exploiting this weakness, attackers initiated unauthorized transactions from Safe wallets configured with the module, exposing certain funds to risk.

Urgent Steps Deployed to Mitigate Further Exposure

To contain potential losses, the Gnosis team has swiftly implemented several emergency measures:

• Requested key cross-chain bridge validators to temporarily suspend bridging operations involving affected assets;
• Continuously monitoring on-chain activity to trace suspicious transaction flows;
• Collaborating with technical partners to assess the full scope of the vulnerability;
• Investigating the root cause to inform future fixes.

The team is currently reviewing impacted contracts and wallet configurations, with the total extent of losses still being evaluated. Users are advised to follow official channels for updates and exercise caution with asset management.
