[Polymarket Hacked Through Third-Party Vendor, Resulting in Approximately $3 Million in User Assets Stolen]
According to Decrypt, the prediction market platform Polymarket was compromised due to a breach involving a third-party vendor. Malicious code was injected into the website's front end, leading to the theft of approximately $3 million from around 15 user accounts. Polymarket stated that the issue has been resolved and affected users will be fully compensated, but the name of the specific vendor involved was not disclosed. The stolen funds were originally the platform's proprietary USD-pegged stablecoin, pUSD, which the attacker converted to ETH and consolidated into a single wallet address. This attack marks the second security incident for Polymarket in the past two months. Last month, a wallet used by an employee for deposits and user reward payments was compromised due to a private key leak, resulting in the theft of approximately $700,000.
