According to Cointelegraph, BTCPay Server has temporarily restricted public remote connections to Lightning Network nodes running the Lightning Network Daemon (LND) software after attackers exploited a critical vulnerability to obtain credentials and transfer funds. BTCPay stated that this restriction prevents external wallets like Zeus from connecting via the BTCPay Server domain. BTCPay also mentioned that Lightning payments can continue and plans to restore the remote access option when deemed safe.
