BlockBeats reported on December 26 that Trust Wallet has issued an urgent security alert affecting users of its browser extension. The company confirmed that version 2.68 contains a critical security vulnerability that requires immediate attention from affected users.

Version 2.68 Contains Security Flaw - Immediate Action Required

The security alert specifically targets version 2.68 of the Trust Wallet browser extension. All users running this version should urgently disable the extension without delay. To resolve the issue, users must upgrade to version 2.69, which can be obtained exclusively through the official Chrome Web Store. Following the security update, the vulnerability will be addressed and normal operation can resume.

Update Instructions and Scope of Impact

Users should access the official Chrome Web Store link to download version 2.69 and complete the upgrade process immediately. The Trust Wallet team is working actively on the matter and pledges to provide regular updates as the situation develops.

Who Is Not Affected by This Security Alert

It’s important to note that this vulnerability is isolated to the browser extension. Users who exclusively rely on the Trust Wallet mobile application are completely unaffected by this security alert. Additionally, users of any other browser extension versions besides 2.68 face no risk from this particular vulnerability. Only version 2.68 of the browser extension poses a concern at this time.
