Ledger quietly patched a serious security flaw in its Ethereum hardware wallet app on August 12, 2026, which allowed malicious apps to replace legitimate transactions during signing. The vulnerability was found internally by Ledger's Donjon security team using AI tools but was publicly revealed later by an external researcher, TestMachine, causing some controversy over disclosure timing.
