Metamask discloses security incident affecting its infrastructure

On Thursday, cryptocurrency wallet provider MetaMask has disclosed an ongoing infrastructure security incident affecting some of its infrastructure.

The company is working to address the issue internally, with help from external partners and security advisors, and says there is “no immediate threat to MetaMask wallets.”

“As a precautionary measure, we are proactively exiting affected validators within our non-custodial staking operations, in coordination with clients and partners,” MetaMask noted. “As a reminder, our staking operations are non-custodial in nature and we do not manage withdrawal keys for stake on behalf of our clients.”
