Gate News message, April 29 — Ethereum mainnet experienced four smart contract attacks over the past 48 hours (April 27-29), resulting in combined losses exceeding $1.5 million, according to GoPlus Security.

The incidents included an attack on the Onchain aggregator contract causing $983,000 in losses; a theft from a TradingProtocol third-party vault contract resulting in $398,000 in losses; an attack on the BCB contract exploiting a reentrancy vulnerability causing $39,800 in losses; and an arbitrary call vulnerability in another contract leading to $124,900 in QNT asset losses.
