Raydium discloses details on how $2 million got drained from liquidity pools by a hacker attack. The exchange proposes paying compensation to affected users.

control of an admin pool private key. The team does not know how this key was obtained, but it suspects that the virtual machine that held the key became infected with a trojan program.

Once the attacker had the key, they called a function to withdraw transaction fees that would normally go to the DAO’s treasury to be used for buybacks of RAY. On Raydium, transaction fees do not automatically go to the treasury at the moment of a swap. Instead, they remain in the liquidity provider’s pool until withdrawn by an admin. However, the smart contract keeps track of the amount of fees owed to the DAO through parameters.

Nevertheless, because of a flaw in the contract, the attacker was able to manually change the parameters, making it appear that the entire liquidity pool was transaction fees that had been collected. This allowed the attacker to withdraw all of the funds. Once the funds were withdrawn, the attacker was able to manually swap them for other tokens and transfer the proceeds to other wallets under the attacker’s control.

In the Dec. 21 forum post, the developers proposed a plan to compensate victims of the attack. The team will use its own unlocked RAY tokens to compensate RAY holders who lost their tokens due to the attack. It has asked for a forum discussion on how to implement a compensation plan using the DAO’s treasury to purchase non-RAY tokens that have been lost. The team is asking for a three-day discussion to take place to decide the issue.on Dec. 16.
