On October 17, Cysic's cross-chain bridge was attacked, resulting in the unauthorized creation of 10 million CYS tokens on the BNB Chain. Attackers exploited a database flaw to submit fake minting messages. The bridge was immediately paused, and 2.8 million of the forged tokens were locked at a specific address with a blacklist preventing transfers. The mainnet and user wallets were unaffected. Cysic has hired a security firm to investigate and track the stolen tokens while maintaining bridge service restrictions.
