Check Point Research found a security issue on Rarible. Malicious actors could send users a dubious link to an NFT that executes JavaScript code that “attempts to send a setApprovalForAll request to the victim.”

According to documents shared with Cointelegraph, Check Point Research recently discovered that malicious actors could send users a dubious link to an NFT that executes JavaScript code after clicking that “attempts to send a setApprovalForAll request to the victim.”on Rarible.

“If exploited, the vulnerability would have enabled a threat actor to steal a user's NFTs and cryptocurrency wallets in a single transaction. A successful attack would have come from a malicious NFT within Rarible's marketplace itself, where users are less suspicious and familiar with submitting transactions.

“Once we saw that this NFT was stolen, it gave us the incentive to investigate further.” Such a vulnerability could also be possible on many other platforms, Vanunu said. “Rarible acknowledged the security flaw quickly and fixed it by removing the SVG file upload option. This terminated the malicious NFT attack option,” Vanunu confirmed.Vanunu refused to estimate the potential value lost that the security flaw could have resulted in, as it could have been “triggered on any user on the platform.” Notably, a similar attack on just a single wallet belonging to DeFiance Capital founder Arthur0x last month, resulted in the loss of roughly 600 Ether .
