Name.com domain hijacking incident escalates: 15 customer domains affected and all restored, 10 of which are linked to the Vercel platform. Gold Finance reports that on November 1, Name.com told The Block that a total of 15 customer domains were compromised in the attack, exceeding the previously confirmed 12, and all domains have now been restored. Vercel stated that 10 of the affected domains are associated with its platform.
Previously, hackers compromised more than ten DeFi websites, including Flap, Kintsu, Pickle Finance, and Origami Finance, using these sites to drain visitors' cryptocurrency wallets. According to registration records obtained by The Block, all 12 compromised domains were registered through Name.com, and 10 of them were suspended at the registrar level by Saturday morning.
