Cross-DEX Draining describes a malicious technique where an attacker exploits vulnerabilities across multiple decentralized exchanges (DEXs) to deplete liquidity pools or user funds. This often involves complex attack vectors, such as flash loan exploits or price manipulation across different trading venues. The goal is to maximize illicit gains by leveraging the interconnectedness of DeFi protocols. These attacks highlight the need for robust security audits.

Reports on DeFi security frequently mention cross-DEX draining incidents, showcasing the persistent threat of sophisticated exploits in decentralized finance. Security researchers analyze these events to identify common vulnerabilities and develop improved defensive strategies. The industry seeks to strengthen interoperability protocols and implement more rigorous smart contract audits to mitigate future occurrences.
