Incident Overview
This attack took advantage of the fact that DIGG itself did not have a WETH trading pair, and the attacker created this trading pair and manipulated the initial transaction price, resulting in a huge slippage during the fee exchange process. The attacker only needs to use a small amount of DIGG and WETH provide initial liquidity to obtain huge profits.
