Solana Silently Fixes Critical Token VulnerabilityThe #Solana Foundation recently patched a serious flaw in its privacy-focused Token-22 system that could have allowed attackers to forge fake zero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs). This bug could have enabled unauthorized minting of tokens or withdrawal from other accounts. Reported on April 16 via ’s GitHub, the vulnerability involved missing algebraic components in the ElGamal Proof program, a part of s confidential transfer mechanism. This flaw meant invalid proofs could be wrongly accepted by the #blockchain . Development teams from #Anza , Firedancer, and Jito verified and swiftly fixed the issue. Patches were quietly rolled out to validators starting April 17, with further updates issued later that day. Third-party firms, including Asymmetric Research, Neodyme, and OtterSec, reviewed the fixes. The main #SPL tokens and Token-2022 logic were unaffected. No exploits have been detected, and all funds remain safe.
