The hack caused around $3.6 million in total damages, according to BlockSec and PeckShield, two top crypto security companies.

A reentrancy vulnerability, which can happen when an attacker repeatedly calls an intelligent contract function and pulls assets from it before the contract updates its internal state, has made the attack possible. This may occur if the smart contract code contains a defect or inadequate security measures are not taken.
