BlockBeats News, March 3 — Lido officially announced that there is a potential vulnerability in the ZKsync wstETH bridge contract. Currently, there is no evidence that the vulnerability has been exploited, and wstETH holders on ZKsync are unaffected. Other bridging contracts are also unaffected. As a precaution, Lido has paused deposits to the ZKsync bridge contract. Withdrawals from zkSync and token transfers are unaffected.
Lido has prepared a fix, which will be audited and deployed during the next scheduled on-chain Lido governance comprehensive vote (late March/early April). After that, deposit functions will be restored. Further updates will be issued based on the situation.
