Pascal Gauthier, the Chairman and CEO of Ledger, issued a public letter regarding the vulnerability of Ledger Connect Kit. On December 14th, Ledger was hacked through Ledger Connect Kit, a Javascript library used to connect websites to wallets. Ledger has since eliminated the vulnerability with its partners and attempted to freeze stolen funds, which were only exploited for less than two hours. This vulnerability is limited to third-party DApps using Ledger Connect Kit and is currently under investigation. Ledger has filed a complaint and will assist affected individuals in recovering their funds. Ledger will support affected users in finding the perpetrators, tracking the funds, and cooperating with law enforcement to recover stolen assets.
