Trust Wallet: The rumored early version vulnerability was fixed as early as 2018, with no user assets compromised

ChainCatcher news, the Trust Wallet Chinese channel stated that the team has clarified the recent community discussions regarding the vulnerabilities in the early wallet version from 2018. The vulnerability originated from a third-party open-source random number library commonly used in the industry at that time, which was fixed in July 2018 and recorded in the Wallet Core repository. The official statement indicated that approximately 10,000 early users were affected, all of whom have been notified and completed asset migration, with no losses incurred.

Since July 2018, newly created wallets have not been affected. Currently, Trust Wallet has adopted audited cryptographic libraries and high-strength random number algorithms, and continues to enhance security through independent security audits and bug bounty programs. The team will also launch a "Wallet Security Awareness Series" to educate users on the principles of mnemonic phrases and random number security, reiterating that "transparency and security are core commitments."
