It's the RPC layer.

Ankr vRPC runs inside an Intel TDX hardware enclave, signing every bridge response cryptographically so verifiers check data, not trust it."

> "Update: 15.5M WFLOW left MORE Markets' WFLOW reserve on Flow EVM. At spot FLOW that is ~$410k. The ~$9.3M in our first post was an initial detector estimate. The attacker realized ~$250k after slippage. USD impact updated with spot pricing. The path was Ankr bonded LST (ankrFLOW)"

The team has provided an update on the Flow incident

The vulnerability was in Ankr’s ankrFLOW liquid staking contract and not in Flow EVM or the Flow protocol

The attacker created around 8.6M unbacked ankrFLOW and used it as collateral on MORE Markets to drain around"

> "More Markets habría perdido USD 9,3 millones en Flow EVM

Blockaid atribuye el ataque a ankrFLOW y E-mode de Aave V3.

Habrían sido drenados 15,5 millones de WFLOW.

El protocolo aún no confirmó el incidente."
