**Critical Alert for Arbitrum Users** Users with deposits or loans in the asdCRV LlamaLend market on Arbitrum are urged to exit immediately as a precautionary measure. **Key Points:** - The market is currently stable, but faces potential instability - Price oracle may become unreliable due to the vsdCRV exploit - Unstable oracle could trigger unexpected liquidations - Action recommended: withdraw deposits and close loans ASAP **Background Context:** This warning follows previous stress tests of LlamaLend markets. While Ethereum-based systems performed well with no bad debt, Arbitrum markets showed vulnerability due to insufficient cross-chain arbitrage activity. The current vsdCRV exploit creates additional risk specifically for the asdCRV market's price oracle mechanism, making immediate exit the safest option until the situation stabilizes.

**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.
