Private transactions cryptocurrency PIVX and over 200 other blockchains are vulnerable to a vulnerability allowing the attacker to obtain disproportionately high staking rewards.
Cryptocurrency consulting firm Lunar Digital Assets claimed in a post published on its website on Aug. 12 that a staking vulnerability is being used across PIVX and its forks. The weakness reportedly allows the attacker to obtain mathematically impossible staking rewards on vulnerable Proof of Stake (PoS) chains.
