A Vulnerability Found in the Multi-Signature Contract “Wallet.sol” Used in Parity Clients
According to the company Parity and the firm’s founder Gavin Wood, the startup’s product the Parity wallet version 1.5 and above contained a bug that enabled the theft of $30 million worth of ETH.
The vulnerability discovered in these specific Parity wallets used a multi-signature contract called “wallet.sol” and the contract was utilized by a few initial coin offerings (ICO) as well. Circulating reports believe that three particular ICO projects were compromised including Swarm City, æternity, and Edgeless Casino.
Should we use Parity now? I have not been to Parity. Can you give us a link to Parity? Will hackers get into Bittrex or Poloniex or others? Scary. Interesting. Thank you.
