Lottie Player is a common animation framework, widely used across dozens of top websites including big name well known brands. On October 30th, 2024, an upgrade to the plug-in was implemented on 1Inch, a widely used decentralized exchange. This upgrade prompted users for additional approvals, and some users granted these approvals. The approvals granted infinite permissions on their wallets and allowed a malicious actor to make off with their funds. One user lost 10 bitcoin. 1Inch has suggested that losses would be eligible for refunds and encouraged users to reach out to them.
