Hackers take over Axie Infinity’s Chatbots and send out a fake fiat currency text
The programmers were able to eliminate the MEE6 chatbot from the host machine and erase the bogus text.
The famous play-to-earn nonfungible coin gaming Axie Infinity was hit by another assault on its Discord server previously on Wednesday, resulting in the vulnerability of its MEE6 chatbot.
MEE6 is a famous chatbot that is used by many bitcoin ventures for generating tasks and texts. The hackers utilized the hacked bot to provide rights to a false Jiho profile, and then released a phony coin statement.
The engineers were able to eliminate the bogus SMS as well as the hacked MEE6 chatbot from the host computer.
The programmers also stated that the MEE6 breach is not a novel occurrence and that activities have had similar problems. The authorized MEE6 Discord assistance group, on the other hand, refuted reports of a breach, claiming that they had checked with their experts and found no odd action.
Most suspect the attackers first hacked the master login and then used MEE6 to get entrance to the second admin panel. This allowed them to put out webbook texts while concealing the admin privileges that had been hijacked. The breach of the Discord bot occurred less than a month after one of the largest thefts on Axie Infinity’s Ronin bridge, which resulted in the destruction of over $600 million in digital currencies. The current spate of security vulnerabilities has eroded public trust.
