CVE-2024-37153: Evmos is the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) Hub on the Cosmos Network
CVE-2024-37153 is a high-severity flaw (CVSS 7.5) affecting evmos. Below: why it ranks where it does, which versions are affected, what to do, and the exact commands.
Evmos is the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) Hub on the Cosmos Network. There is an issue with how to liquid stake using Safe which itself is a contract. The bug only appears when there is a local state change together with an ICS20 transfer in the same function and uses the contract's balance, that is using the contract address as the sender parameter in an ICS20 transfer using the ICS20 precompile. This is in essence the "infinite money glitch"
Why this priority
- High severity
- Public exploit reference
- Remotely exploitable, no login, no user action
A fixed release or distro patch exists.
