A peer-reviewed study presented at USENIX Security ’26 found that 63% of Ethereum's EIP-7702 wallet authorization transactions were linked to malicious contracts, resulting in confirmed losses of $2.36 million. The study analyzed over 3.6 million authorization transactions across seven blockchains through July 2025, revealing attackers exploited the new EIP-7702 feature that lets wallets act like smart contracts. Researchers also identified $10.14 million in assets exposed due to outdated contract assumptions and noted attackers rebinding accounts to normal-looking code post-attack to hide risks. Ethereum developers now recommend stricter wallet vetting and clearer user warnings for delegated code to improve security.
