Matcha Meta urged users to revoke one-time approvals for SwapNet’s router contract after a smart contract vulnerability saw up to $16.8 million stolen on the Base blockchain.

Decentralized exchange (DEX) aggregator Matcha Meta suffered a security breach on Sunday through one of its primary liquidity providers, SwapNet, in the latest cyberattack tied to exploiting smart contract vulnerabilities.

Matcha Meta disclosed the breach in a post on X on Sunday, warning that users who had disabled one-time token approvals may be at risk. The protocol urged users to immediately revoke all approvals granted to SwapNet’s router contract to prevent further losses.
