$1.01M stolen in Avalanche vault exploit using flash loans to drain USDC reserves

Blockaid detected an ongoing exploit on Avalanche targeting a Tranche Vault linked to Fence Finance and Valinor Digital, resulting in about $1.01 million USDC stolen in two transactions. The attacker used a flash loan to mint inflated tranche shares and redeemed them against the vault's USDC reserves. This incident shows the limits of onchain fund recovery, as issuer blacklists failed to recover or freeze any stolen funds, with attackers quickly converting assets to unfreezable forms via decentralized exchanges. The event highlights the speed and sophistication of such exploits, challenging post-incident recovery efforts.

The Blockaid detection of a $1.01M Avalanche vault exploit provides context for readers.
