A bug in the Solana Protocol Library (SPL) could have seen attackers steal money from multiple Solana projects at a rate of $27 million an hour, according to security researchers at Neodyme. The projects that were affected included yield aggregator Tulip Protocol and lending protocols Solend and Larix. These projects currently look after $1.7 billion in funds. 

In a blog post, Neodyme explained that the bug was first publicly disclosed by one of Neodyme’s auditors, known as Simon, on file sharing platform GitHub in June.
