$6M stolen from Aave vault on Base after borrower whitelist change triggers token outflows

A vault on the Base blockchain lost about $6 million in Aave deposit tokens following six separate withdrawals. The withdrawals occurred after a change was made to the vault's borrower whitelist, allowing unauthorized access. The stolen tokens were converted into wrapped staked Ether (wstETH), with some funds later moved through bridge withdrawals to Ethereum. This incident highlights the risks associated with changes to borrower access controls in decentralized finance protocols.

AAVE tokens are trading at Rp3.243.973 on Pluang as of Oct 06, 2026 02:01 WIB, showing a 0.92% increase in the last day. The market cap stands at Rp50,33 trillion with a 24-hour volume of Rp6,9 trillion. Despite the recent vault outflows, Pluang users show a balanced interest with 54% buying and 46% selling activity.
