LlamaRisk Releases sDOLA Attack Postmortem: $822k Borrower Losses, Curve DAO May Compensate
**Attack Details and Impact** LlamaRisk published a postmortem analyzing the sDOLA market liquidations on LlamaLend. The exploit resulted in: - **$822,000 in borrower losses** through forced liquidations - **~$200,000 profit** for the attacker - Lenders remained unaffected **Root Cause** The attack exploited a combination of factors: - Price oracle vulnerability to donation attacks - Limited sDOLA liquidity outside the collateral market - Specific handling requirements for vault collaterals in LlamaLend **Potential Compensation** Curve DAO is considering compensating affected borrowers for the $822k loss, pending community discussion and governance vote. **Security Learnings** The incident provided critical insights before LlamaLend V2's release. Developers noted the attacker likely would have earned more through a responsible security disclosure than the exploit itself. The team is now incorporating oracle code from unreleased 2-way markets as mitigation for future vault collateral markets.
