The Aptos-based DeFi project Thala suffered a security breach as a result of an isolated vulnerability in the latest update to v1 farming contracts, allowing the exploiter to withdraw liquidity pool tokens totaling $25.5m. Thala has since paused all related contracts and frozen Thala token assets ($9m MOD and $2.5m THL). With the assistance of other organizations, the team identified the exploiter and negotiated a $300k bounty for a full recovery of user assets.
