Wallet Draining Exploit

Definition

A Wallet Draining Exploit refers to a malicious attack designed to surreptitiously transfer all digital assets from a user’s cryptocurrency wallet without their explicit consent. These exploits typically leverage vulnerabilities in smart contracts, compromised software, or deceptive phishing tactics. The goal is to gain unauthorized control over a user’s private keys or approval permissions, enabling the attacker to empty the wallet. This represents a severe security breach.
