According to the technical investigation, this wallet extension security incident traces back to direct malicious modifications within the internal codebase—specifically in the analytics module—rather than a compromised third-party library or npm package dependency. The threat actor gained access and deliberately altered the source code at its core. This represents a critical reminder that even trusted wallet extensions require rigorous code review and monitoring to detect unauthorized changes before deployment.

Has the analysis module been internally modified? This detail is too critical, indicating that it's not the fault of the npm package at all, but rather someone who directly accessed the codebase... Did you discover this while checking on-chain data at 3 a.m.? The big players definitely knew about it long ago.

It's another internal mess-up, not the fault of the dependency package.

Whoa, the internal code was directly modified? That's even more outrageous than third-party library being attacked.

I'll be straightforward: even trusted wallet plugins should be cautious. This time, the internal code was directly modified, and the analytics module was compromised—it's not the fault of third-party libraries. What does this indicate? We need to closely monitor the source code and not rely solely on brand reputation.
