On July 24, 2024, Spectra Protocol's router contract was exploited for approximately $73,000 via an arbitrary call vulnerability in the execute function. The attacker crafted inputData to manipulate contract calls with arbitrary parameters, draining 188 quadrillion asdCRV tokens (inflated representation) from approved wallets.
