How much money did the attackers make?


I'm not sure whether the compromised packages were the source of Kiln's API compromise, but it's plausible. It lead to theft of $41M worth of SOL. https://cointelegraph.com/news/swissborg-hacked-41m-sol-api-...


These were different. The vulnerable packages wouldn't have caused an API exploit vector except in the most bizarre of edge cases I suppose.


According to a crypto tracking site linked indirectly via the other popular submission, about $500 worth of crypto.


5 cents of eth and $20 of a meme coin.
