Rabby Wallet Fixes Vulnerability in 10-Minute Auto-Lock Setting

Rabby Wallet has addressed a vulnerability that could occur in the 10-minute auto-lock setting and released an update on August 11. This vulnerability was a limited flaw that only occurred when a connection to a malicious website was made while the auto-lock timer was set to 10 minutes. Rabby Wallet stated that the team completed the fix after confirming the vulnerability and has distributed the update. The mobile application was not affected by this vulnerability. For the flaw to be exploited, users needed to connect their wallet to a malicious website and set the auto-lock timer to 10 minutes. Other auto-lock settings were not impacted. Auto-lock is a security feature that restricts access when a user has not interacted with the wallet for a certain period. Rabby Wallet is a browser wallet that supports Ethereum and EVM-compatible networks, providing features such as risk scanning before transactions and displaying balance changes before signing. The latest version in the Chrome Web Store is listed as 0.94.2. This announcement informs users about the fix for a vulnerability that could occur under limited conditions rather than a widespread breach. Rabby Wallet has stated that it has not yet found any instances of this vulnerability being exploited in real-world environments. Users can check whether the extension has been updated and verify their auto-lock settings.
