A Calculation Vulnerability Led to the Theft of 8,535 ETH from Truebit

On January 8, 2026, the Truebit Protocol was exploited, resulting in a loss of 8,535.36 ETH (approximately $26.44 million). The attack involved a critical integer overflow vulnerability in the token purchase price calculation function. The attacker executed four rounds of transactions by calling functions getPurchasePrice, 0xa0296215, and 0xc471b10b. In the first round, the attacker called getPurchasePrice with a large input value (240442509453545333947284131), which returned 0 due to an arithmetic flaw. Then, they invoked function 0xa0296215 with msg.value = 0, successfully minting a massive amount of TRU tokens. Finally, by calling function 0xc471b10b, they burned the minted tokens and received 5,105.06 ETH. The root cause was an unchecked addition operation (v12 + v9) in the price calculation logic (function 0x1446), which overflowed to a small value, making (v12 + v9) / v6 = 0. The contract used Solidity ^0.6.10 without overflow checks, enabling the exploit. This incident highlights the risks of older DeFi protocols with unpatched vulnerabilities, possibly identified through AI-assisted scanning. Projects are advised to conduct security audits, upgrade contracts, and monitor链上 activity to mitigate such threats.
