Pendle Domain Hijacking Causes Website to Temporarily Shuts Down

Because of the effects of Pendle domain hijacking, users are advised not to access the application until further notice, although the protocol itself remains intact and user funds are secure. The team is working diligently to restore the website and has implemented protective measures to secure the Pendle domain.

Users can still access Pendle safely by ensuring the address bar displays “app.pendle.finance” and has not been redirected. If issues persist, users should clear their browser cache and restart their devices.

Multiple Crypto Platforms Face Domain Hijacking Threats

In a related incident, Celer Network, a cross-chain interoperability protocol, issued a warning on platform X, advising users to avoid Celer.network and cbridge.Celer.network due to a potential DNS domain attack.

Celer assures that their systems and funds are secure and are actively working to resolve the issue. The attack is reminiscent of a similar incident Celer faced in 2022, highlighting ongoing vulnerabilities in the sector. Other projects, including Curve and Balancer, have experienced similar attacks in recent years.

Additionally, Compound Finance reported signs of hijacking on its website, compound.finance, prompting a temporary advisory against visiting the site. Data from who.is indicates that these compromised domains are registered via the domain registrar Squarespace, suggesting a potential link in the vulnerabilities.
