ChainThink report, on November 11, according to an announcement from Across, attackers gained control of the Across official website domain through a social engineering attack targeting the domain registrar Namecheap.

Across received alerts within 15 minutes of the incident and immediately took down the website; SEAL911 assisted major wallets in flagging the domain as a phishing site, and Cloudflare subsequently removed the associated DNS records. The phishing page is now inaccessible.

Users who accessed the official website prior to the complete blockage of the phishing page may have been affected. Across states it will provide full compensation to impacted users and advises users to use their connected wallets at Revoke.cash to revoke permissions granted on that day.

Users who accessed the website prior to the attack, as well as those using the protocol via API or third-party integrations, were not affected. Across's frontend and API will remain suspended until domain security is confirmed.

The team has not yet received a response from Namecheap and will investigate the cause of the domain takeover, with a detailed post-mortem to be published later.
