Ola Finance Hack

Reported loss $4.7M
Fuse
Reentrancy

What happened

On March 31, 2022, a reentrancy vulnerability in the ERC677 token-transfer path of Voltage Finance's Ola-powered Fuse lending deployment was exploited for more than $4.67 million. The attack was limited to the Fuse deployment and the teams said they were working on user compensation.

How it happened

  1. The attacker interacted with a lending market that handled ERC677 token transfers.
  2. A callback during the transfer path enabled reentrant calls before the lending operation's accounting was safely finalized.
  3. The attacker repeated the path to extract assets from the Fuse lending deployment.
  4. Ola and Voltage paused the affected Fuse lending service while investigating and preparing compensation measures.
