Ethereum wallet lost 9.1231 ETH (~$22,770) via malicious EIP-7702 delegation attack, warns security firm ExVul

An Ethereum wallet linked to sven.eth lost 9.1231 ETH, worth about $22,770, and 1.69 TAPEETH tokens after an attacker exploited a malicious EIP-7702 authorization. The attacker used a sponsored transaction to execute code with the wallet's permissions, allowing them to transfer funds without exploiting any DeFi protocol vulnerabilities. Security firm ExVul warns the malicious delegation remained active, risking further asset theft unless cleared or replaced. This incident highlights risks in Ethereum's EIP-7702 delegation feature, which allows smart contract functionality but can be abused if authorizations are compromised.

The recent Ethereum wallet attack involving a $22K loss provides context for cryptocurrency market activity. For readers following major cryptocurrencies on Pluang, here is the market snapshot as of Oct 14, 2026 15:21 WIB: out of 50 priced assets, 15 rose and 34 fell today.
