“Sushi’s RouteProcessor2 contract has an approval bug; please revoke approval ASAP. We’re working with security teams to mitigate the issue.”

A Twitter user with the moniker Trust (presumably a white hacker) has claimed he allegedly discovered the vulnerability first and withdrew 100 ETH belonging to Patryn, intending to return it to its rightful owner later. However, the unknown hacker traced the attack vector and repeated the attack.
