Balancer vulnerability report and actions taken

Following up on the early alert received on Balancer’s critical vulnerability, we’d like to share a detail of the actions we carried out during the War Room session we held to de-risk all GnosisDAO positions. No funds were lost as a result of the vulnerability.

We withdrew the funds from the pools at risk and were in constant communication with the Balancer and Aura teams to ensure the proper steps were being taken.

Actions taken:

  • Unstaked from Aura
  • Withdrew from affected pools in Balancer
  • Withdrew from linear pools in Balancer
  • Unwrapped compounding tokens from lending protocols (Aave and Agave)
  • Withdrew from lending protocols (Aave and Agave)

Here’s a detail of the pools and their values:

great to hear. I did the same with my small stake in vulnerable pools on eth mainchain, costs me about 25% of the value in gas :upside_down_face: Glad to have moved majority of my funds to gc.
