ChainCatcher message, the EXVUL technical team stated that several Chrome extension wallets have recently been found to have serious vulnerabilities. It is understood that many Google extension wallets use indexedDB to store encryption key data; however, this storage method poses a risk of ciphertext replacement attacks. Attackers can replace the victim's wallet keys, thereby decrypting the victim's wallet and stealing the user's keys or mnemonic phrases. Wallets that have been confirmed to have this vulnerability include Coinbase Wallet, Crypto.com, Sui Wallet, MyEtherWallet, and others. The EXVUL technical team stated that they are in contact with the relevant wallet teams to discuss repair solutions.

ChainCatcher news, according to CoinDesk, video game and related products retailer GameStop (GME) announced that due to regulatory uncertainty, it will remove the iOS and Chrome browser extension wallets from the market on November 1, 2023, and discontinue support for cryptocurrency wallets. Customers can access these wallets until October 1. These wallets were launched about a year ago, allowing users to manage cryptocurrencies and NFTs through decentralized applications and supporting transactions on GameStop's NFT marketplace.
