Peapods Finance Hack

Reported loss $207K
Ethereum
Oracle manipulation in user-created Pods

What happened

On July 8, 2025, Peapods Finance suffered an oracle-price manipulation that led to an unauthorized withdrawal of roughly $200,000 in ETH. Reporting and a Peapods core-team comment identified low-liquidity Uniswap pools used as TWAP price inputs for two user-created Pod markets as the affected dependency.

How it happened

  1. The attacker targeted user-created Pods whose TWAP oracle inputs came from Uniswap pools with deteriorated liquidity.
  2. By skewing those pool prices, the attacker caused the oracle to report false values.
  3. The manipulated valuation was then used to borrow or liquidate positions and drain funds.
