An Ethereum MEV bot named Yoink intercepted a $7.8 million exploit attempt on a Safe wallet involving 2,900 rsETH by paying nearly 19 ETH to secure the first transaction position in the same block. The exploit was due to weak authorization checks in an executor contract linked to a Safe module, allowing unauthorized calls through a trusted route. Yoink's transaction succeeded while the original exploit reverted, highlighting the bot's role in capturing maximal extractable value (MEV) by prioritizing transaction order. No recovery or legal actions have been reported yet, and this incident adds to significant DeFi losses in 2026 caused by compromised credentials and smart contract flaws.
