The Fireblocks research team recently uncovered an ERC-4337 Account Abstraction vulnerability in the smart contract wallet UniPass. Fireblocks worked with UniPass to fully mitigate the vulnerability, which was found in hundreds of mainnet wallets in a whitehat operation. All funds are now safe and accounted for.

Fireblocks provided custody and tokenization technology for almost half of the pilot use cases at the recently concluded Digital Finance CRC (DFCRC) and the Reserve Bank of Australia’s (RBA) central bank digital currency (CBDC) pilot program. The PoC saw the secure minting and burning of the new CBDC, called eAUD. In addition, Fireblocks powered policy-based administration of the smart contracts and transfers to end customers.
