CVE-2024-37158Network attack vector

Unvested-token transfer via unchecked precompile path

Published Jun 17, 2024 · Updated Aug 2, 2024

Control-flow flaw in Evmos before 18.0.0 allows remote authenticated users to transfer unvested tokens through EVM precompiles. Separate Cosmos and Ethereum ante handlers apply different preliminary checks, letting an Ethereum transaction enter a Cosmos SDK module without the clawback checks. Exploitation requires control of a clawback vesting account and submission of the crafted transaction; the bypass exposes otherwise locked tokens.
