DogWifTool Compromised, Resulting in Major Cryptocurrency Losses

/ 1 min read

🐶💰 DogWifTools software breach leads to significant cryptocurrency losses. Hackers compromised the Windows version of DogWifTools, a platform for promoting meme coins on the Solana blockchain, in a supply-chain attack that drained over $10 million from users’ wallets. The attackers gained access to the project’s private GitHub repository, trojanizing versions 1.6.3 to 1.6.6 by injecting a Remote Access Trojan (RAT) into legitimate updates. While macOS users were unaffected, many Windows users reported losing access to their cryptocurrency accounts. Accusations of “rug pulling” have surfaced, although the DogWifTools team denies any fraudulent activity and is working to enhance security and restore community trust while collaborating with investigators.
