Attention Aftermath community - We’ve identified an exploit affecting the protocol. Our team is actively investigating alongside leading security partners. As a precaution, the protocol has been paused and measures are being taken to minimize potential impact to user funds. We’ll continue to share updates as we learn more. Thank you for your patience.

NEW: A small group of "unauthorized users" have reportedly breached Anthropic's tightly restricted Claude Mythos.

While we wait for the dust to settle and hope for the best there is, sharing a few pointers on hardening the admin control flow for programs: 1. Program-native multisig for all admin config ixs over and above the obvious external multisig/cold-wallet setup 2. Timelocked admin execution enforced onchain for critical changes to program config like new listings, thresholds for circuit breakers etc. 3. Real-time admin config alerts so team/community can act on time critical intel. 4. No-op buffer for emergency bricking so program upgrade multisig can swap in a single tx

Drift is one of the multiple credit venues that Asgard sources from. Our current open interest routed through Drift is not significant. On our end, we have disabled Drift as a credit venue on Asgard and are reaching out to affected users directly. We're in contact with the Drift team and monitoring the situation closely. No other Asgard operations are affected, we will be sharing updates as we learn more.

the issue is that we’re assuming a black box will follow a state machine. for context: even the researchers building these neural systems don’t fully understand how they work, they’re still largely a black box. views are my own. p.s. claude still missed my workflow step :cry
