According to a post by on-chain analyst Darkfost (@Darkfost_Coc), following the confirmation that Ledger hardware wallet distributor CryptoBilis suffered a supply chain attack, other distributors on platforms such as Lazada have also been added to the risk list due to regional supply chain connections. Ledger has officially confirmed its association with CryptoBilis, but the possibility that other distributors may also be affected cannot yet be ruled out. Darkfost advises users who purchased Ledger devices from the aforementioned related distributors within the past six months to transfer their assets to a secure address as soon as possible.
