BlockBeats news, on August 9, the official 'immersive translation' plugin announced the suspension of the bilingual webpage sharing function, stating that 'we recently received feedback from the community that a small number of users inadvertently shared pages that may contain personal information while using this feature, and did not delete them in a timely manner from their personal center. To avoid potential privacy risks, we have decided to temporarily take this feature offline, and it will not be re-launched until a comprehensive privacy protection mechanism is established. The official 'immersive translation' team stated that it does not involve any leakage of translated content or backend user data, as links accessible to the outside are only generated when users actively use the bilingual webpage sharing feature.'
Additionally, according to community news, some users reported that the 'immersive translation' plugin leaked user privacy due to improper permission controls, with some users reporting that their wallet private keys were compromised, and there are vulnerabilities in the 'webpage snapshot' feature.
BlockBeats note: Currently, there has not been a warning issued by an authoritative security organization regarding this incident. Users are advised to view this rationally and pay attention to asset protection. BlockBeats will further track the progress of the incident.
