The Base network, a blockchain network incubated by Coinbase, has experienced over 34,000 high-risk vulnerabilities in its smart contracts, according to Trugard Labs. The vulnerabilities include malicious boolean checks and library tampering. Base was particularly susceptible to Digital Signature issues, with nearly 22,000 detections related to tampering in standard libraries. Other threats identified on the network included unauthorized token burns, balance updates, and controlled minting attacks. Trugard Labs suggests that as the decentralized finance sector grows, threat actors are adapting their tactics to exploit vulnerabilities in smart contracts and blockchain networks.
