Slow Mist founder Cosine reviewed the DEXX theft incident in an article on X platform. He stated that although the investigation report was not made public, it can be responsibly said that it was indeed due to a vulnerability in the Zendo platform used by DEXX being exploited, which led to external intrusion. Subsequently, the production network related servers and database permissions were taken down, and all trace analysis restored this attack path.
That is to say, DEXX is also a victim, but bears responsibility for inadequate security management. Slow Mist actually knew the truth a long time ago, but why didn't he say it publicly? On the one hand, it was because of the emotions at that time, no one believed it, and almost everyone thought it was self theft; On the other hand, it is necessary to follow the pace of law enforcement (DEXX reported the case to the police at the first time). For the purpose of caution, the investigation also started with internal suspects, and only began to target external parties after law enforcement gradually eliminated them.
